The burner control is a package that manages the whole sequence: opens the solenoid, waits few seconds, then fires the spark igniter. It has a built-in safety so that if there's no flame after 6 or 7 seconds, it closes the solenoid and shuts down. It runs in the sequence described in manual mode. Th...

Here are two screen shots: 1) One of the settings in the Mash Process, calling for the HLT to fire to 155 F HLT Setting.jpg 2) The Auto-Ignition settings from the Settings tab Auto Ignition Settings.jpg My igniter is a spark igniter. It works flawlessly on manual, and it works sometimes on auto with...

After having my BCS462 reflashed and updated with new software, I finally got my HLT to fire whenever I had it set to fire on Auto. That was the first time since I installed it two years ago, and that was back in the Winter. Ever since then, it's been unreliable. Most of the time, when it's supposed...

Thanks, Oakbarn. This is actually State 1, not 0, but you gave me some ideas and it looks like they're working now.

Just had my BCS462 reflashed by the seller after it failed to work properly or update the new firmware, and now everything is working (finally!) except the timers. Below are screen shots of the Process Editor page where I've set up timers for two events in the Sparge/Drain state, and the Main Contro...

More encounters with unintelligible language: The instructions from the BCS Upgrade Mode button say: "Please enter the IP address of the computer that will host the firmware update. Hint: from a command line, use the command 'ipconfig' [wtf???]. If connected directly, IP should start with 169.2...

In the video, what does he mean by "we can actually serve out any files that were in that directory"? That's when he runs over to the command prompt. I took a guess and used the browse button to access the directory where I saved the bcs bin file, selected the directory, but I didn't know ...

JonW -- Thanks for the video. I was doing fine until he started using command prompts. Yikes! Can't wait for your step-by-step instructions! If you prefer that I download a more familiar TFTP server so you can provide specific details, I'm happy to do it. I sure hope the new BCS user interface is ea...

I agree the upgrade instructions could/should be more explicit/detailed. We probably take it for granted because we have been upgrading beta's for a while. I am not familiar with the aforementioned TFTP program, but understand that what you are running is a server (host) application, which is meant...

OK, I need help. I downloaded the bcs460.bin file attached to the initial post, then my computer asked what app to use to open it, and I had no idea. Sorry, not an IT person, could really use some specific instructions. Very anxious to use the new interface on my BCS462. Your computer does not dire...
