GHL Mitras Club

its a windows issue with win8 where win8 demands a signature, the topic is covered in the mitras section on the support forum for your assistance.

Rumour has it windows 8.1 is going back to win7 USB architecture as its hard to connect anything with it.
 
Windows blows!!!!! All went downhill after XP :( I have 7 on my laptop at home and HATE it. XP at the office, so much more productive. Anybody with original XP distribution CDs keep 'em :)
 
Can someone please help!

I have the trouble connecting.

New computer. I am running Windows 7 (64bit) via Parallels on a Mac, both systems fully updated. I cannot connect to the Mitras.

The COM wasn't showing on the device manager so I manually installed it with the GHL driver. however it says:

"GHL Virtual Communications Port, Software installed but may not work correctly. This device cannot start"

I have downloaded the 1.0.3.0 software, though I cannot remember the firmware the lights are running.








I have followed these steps

1. Follow Michael's guidance about resetting windows bug for deleting the COM/LPT port and make sure COM/LPT now is displayed DONE
2. attached the Mitras to a USB port making sure the cable is firmly plugged in DONE
3. Open Mitras software DONE
4. Click on administration and then device manager DONE
5. Note what COM port the driver is using DONE
6 Double click the mitras shown in the connection tab and edit the COM port to match
7. close the dialogue box and click connect DONE
1. Uninstall the software DONE
2. Go to device manager and make sure that COM and LPT are now showing, if not please revert back to my original advise on fixing this DONE
3. Reload software DONE
4. Connect Mitras and follow last step by step advise. DONE

Please help!

Hello, can you please tell me when the Mitras in black will be available to ship in the US? I have ordered 2 black ones two weeks ago but still have not gotten a ship date.
Thank you,

I have given up on the Firmware fix. Cannot find the LPT number / cant get the driver to work

I did like the video though and have managed to make a program or two.

My challenge is that no matter what I set the lamp to percentage wise it will no go over 50ish percent on the chart. I click show on lamp, set to 80% but when I am done programing it goes back down to under 60% on the graph
It is on High Output and set to 100% in the power tab
The output just isnt very much as it is. Softies like it but the SPS not so much

this is because the temperarture % has absolute no relation to the intensity %

Ignore the temp % and just set the lamp to the intensity % you deire, but please be careful not to burn your corals.
 
Also check to make sure the "rainy days" feature. I had mine on all 7 days at 60% and for a while couldnt figure out the end result was dimmer than what it was suppose to be. Shut off rainy days and all is good.
