How did you do the upgrade?
From what version?
What version of PLC?

I have had many issues in setting up my pflux. Communcation crashes, etc. that is why I was anxious to try a new firmware which will hopefully fix all of that.

No need to hope both Chris and i have been running it for nearly a week, no drop outs 24/7

USB connection plus II ex downloaded and instaaled.new 5.0.0.12 software and then downloaded the new firmware 5p coming from 5m.
Tried it twice same result. Do I need to remove my 5m firmware off PC like u do software first?

 

[nanotank]

Just tried it again same result....

 

[nanotank]

ok was not hitting yes on the controller. Well I just did it and during the firmware update it stopped and now my system is OFF.. Man I am sop ****ED the USB connection is a joke. That is what I am sure caused the failed firmware update.

Did you read the instruction on the pop up while doing the upgrade?

It says:
Please read this thoroughly before the update!

Manual:
http://www.aquariumcomputer.com/Download/Manual_ProfiLuxII_V406.pdf
Page 67

Click on Download in the File menu. You will then be asked to select the file containing the new firmware.
Make sure you select only the firmware file appropriate to your ProfiLux model! After successfully analyzing
the file the aquarium computer will display the question Download now?. After answering Yes you should
then confirm the message displayed by ProfiLuxControl II with OK. The download will then begin and the
firmware will be updated. When the process is completed your ProfiLux (Plus) II will be restarted.

.....


You had to press Yes on the controler _Before_ you click the ok in profilux control. Now the firmware is currupted, you will have to restore with FlashFR and a computer with a workinf serial port! (the instruction are on page 67 also)
