    Hi there.
    Running V3 hardware and has been reliable since it was installed in 2018.
    Today – I went to upgrade it from 2.1.8 to 2.1.9.
    Successfully completed a backup to my Mac.
    Followed the straightforward upgrade instructions here:

    Submitted the upgarde and sat back.
    After ten minutes, thinking it was taking a long time, I tried to ping the unit. No response.
    Closer inspection of the unit in situ confirmed the unit was dead. No screen display.
    Power supply (24VAC) confirmed ok.
    Depower / repower and no display in the LCD.
    B1, B2, B3 have no effect.
    Seems to have totally died.
    Advice appreciated.
    Cheers and thanks.
    Dave.

    Update:
    Tried to power it using the micro-usb port on the ESP8266 Main Controller board. I see a flash of the blue LED on the wifi sub-board but still no joy.
    Same result with or without the 8-Zone 24VAC power board plugged in.
    Thanks.
    Dave.
