more weird problems

Ok, so I know I still have the interferance with the temp probe, but last night I went down to feed my tank after lights out.

Problem is, at 8:30pm, my MHs were still on (programmed to turn off at 6:30pm), my T5s were still on (programmed to turn off at 8:00pm), my pc's weren't on (programmed to turn on at 8:00pm), and my skimmer was not turned off.

I had to unplug everything that should be off, to just try and keep things 'normal'. When I went down this morning to check things over, the PCs had turned on, but when I plugged in both the MHs and T5s - they turned on (not supposed to until 8am, and MHs at 1:30pm).

What is going on? I haven't changed anything. Sunday it was working, Monday morning everything was working, then Monday night it all goes to cr@p. I have already snipped the little wire on the X-10 modules for local control. What could cause this sudden failure?

email Curt and he will send you a firmware update that will correct the problem. I was having the same issue, and the update fixed things for me.

Thanks Mike!

Things for today were back on track, but it probably isn't a bad idea to get a firmware update. Quick question though, how do I upload the update to the controller once I get it?

Well,

I guess it depends on what controller you are using. I am using the ACIII. Curt sent the firmware update, along with an interface program to upload the firmware to the controller. Just follow his directions that he will send.
