No. They are always off. I haven't seen them on since before the firmware update.

Thanks for the replies. I have tried everything listed above, with no luck. The unit acts dead. I think something happened during the firmware update... a power glitch, communication interrupted, etc... I may need to send it back to see if a re-flash can resolve the issues.

When I do ipconfig, I get a Autoconfiguration IPv4 address: 169.254.219.181
Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

That's it. No other address information.

Thanks for the reply. I was hard wired into the BCS, not going through my router. BCS finder couldn't see it, no matter the reset time I used.

OK, so I just had something similar happen to my BCS. I tried to update the firmware. When I did, once the transfer was complete, the BCS wasn't responding. I've tried pulling the power multiple times. I've tried doing the hard resets for 10-20 seconds, 20-30 seconds, and more than 30 seconds to try...

Last night, I had a buddy come over and we did a full set of experiments on the system... (needed his help b/c my EE degree taught me to stay below 12VDC and usually over 400 MHz... :D). We did find a few problems... 1. There was ~30 VAC on the kegs, heat exchanger, and even the liquid... The HLT di...

OK, so I've given this issue a few more brews and have updated symptoms... My setup: Mash tun false bottom to March pump, to electric heat exchanger (hot water heater element running on 120V in a 1.5" stainless steel pipe). From heat exchanger to brass value to brass "T". One side is ...

Has anyone had a problem with a temp probe measuring correctly, then suddenly going to 0? I had this problem this past weekend while I was recirculating my boil (over 200 degrees). It was measuring temp fine, then went to 0. I have seen the probe measure quite a bit lower than it should due to an ai...

I would say that the thermometer may not be completely linear. If you calibrated the thermometer to the thermister, then the two could be identical at one temp, and off at a higher temp. Thats the only thing I can think of, if the wiring is correct. If the heat exchanger is the only source of heat, ...

One thing to keep in mind with the PID settings is that the integral coefficient can be very sensitive. If you have a problem with the loop basically working correctly, but not quite giving it enough "umph" to get to the set point... you can add a small amount to the integral coeff. The in...
