If you don’t have SD card, the log will be empty. Will check the issue about spinning icon, but there won’t be any log data if you don’t provide a SD card.

Which NTP IP did you change it to? I tried a different one and it seems to work fine, I didn’t see the UI hanging. One possibility is that if you changed NTP server to one that’s invalid or inaccessible, the controller may be trying to reach that server and eventually timeout. Meanwhile the UI may freeze until the controller times out.

Yeah that is it, i was trying to change it to time.apple.com, and pings to it are failing.

Since Yosemite isn’t officially released yet, I haven’t upgraded and so can’t test yet. But you are right that the QtSerialPort library has a known bug that’s likely the cause of the crash.

(by the way, the crash report is a bit too long so I clipped your message. Sorry about that).

No problem, how about updating the NTP server?? also on the UI when i go to logs it just presents the spinning indicator. I don’t have a sd card in my OS, so i don’t expect to see any logs.

I’ll include the crash log below.

I switched to a mac with a released version of the os and could update. I tried to change the ntp server, and the UI looked like just hanged after hitting submit (not a big deal)

Here is the crash log, it seems from looking at the QT forums that the icu library that qt was compiled with is the issue.

The weather is being polled every 15 minutes if I’m not mistaken. The code is available here: https://github.com/OpenSprinkler/OpenSprinklerGen2/blob/master/examples/interval_program/weather1.py#L103

It would be useful to see the data that it polled or at least see the watering percentage in the UI somewhere. If you could add this to the status it would be great.

Something like

watering% 10% or whatever….

This would help out to know that we typed in the correct, zipcode, pws:code or whatever.

If this is already there i apologize and thanks.

For irrigation purposes; seconds are relatively irrelevant. Using minutes makes far more sense to me.

Hopefully the change to individual station timing will permit simplification of the programming process. (Especially for those of us in drought zones with heavy restrictions on watering dates and times.) In the San Antonio, Texas area; we can only water one day a week from Midnight to 8:00 AM and again from 8 PM to midnight. I have a wide variety of zones (Drip irrigation, Grass, Vegetable Beds, shrubbery, Fruit Trees, etc) all with different timing needs. The current method of creating different programs for each type (timing) and stringing them together can be quite frustrating; especially if you want to make seasonal adjustments. Since you have to state the exact time that each program starts; you can’t easily string multiple programs one after another without leaving time gaps to account for a seasonal percentage increases in normal watering levels. This in turn makes it extremely difficult to fully water everything within my allowed 12 hours per week. (32 Zones) . The new approach sounds like an excellent enhancement. Thanks for your ongoing enhancements to the system.

Thats what i thought too. i have all my programs start at the same time, and the software will string them together.

Did you click on ‘Submit’ after making those changes? Also, did the UI report password error? If so you need to log out first and then input the correct password.

Tried that, UI didn’t report a password error, but maybe that was the issue. I’ll try again.

Just tried it again. I just reverted back to 2.0.7.

Does it matter that i turned on the NEW ui in 2.0.7??

Trying to change the station names didn’t seem to stick it would only take the first few characters, (I realize there is an upper limit but Front Sidewalk used to work just fine)

I honestly don’t understand what you mean by stuck. Did you submit the options and go back in to find no change?

For the station name, do you mean you can’t type more than a few characters? Or do you mean after saving the station names when going back in you only see the first few characters of what you typed?
Thanks

I would type in a new station name, but going back to the page that lists the stations, the change wasn’t applied it still said S08 (or whatever)

Also turning on ntp, sequential etc, didn’t get applied.

Go to options turn on ntp, then submit, now go back to options, it still says ntp off.

I applied the update was there something else i should do after??

[vinny]

I just tried to update, the update took.

I just went back to 2.0.7 for now.
