And for connection 2, see how it goes off to the left and form a dot - does that just mean I should splice it with wire # 1?

Last question, while the dimmable interface has a grounding wire slot that requires a grounding wire from the ballast - the ballast itself has no slot for a ground wire connection. Should I just leave it empty?
Terminal 1 needs to be bugged together as indicated by the black dot from bulb one to bulb two. Look at the picture two dimentional, those black lines go into the stand offs as you would be looking at them from the top down.

4.5.6.7 go to the respective areas in the standoff

By All means Ground the Ballast, run the ground from the ballast to ground on the to the ground for the Power. In Other words you need to ground the ballasts at the anchor point where you fasten them. Pay attention to your local electrical codes. you may not be allowed to do it this way. When In Doubt, Contact a Local electritian.

Default 3.04

I udated to 3.04. Yes, everything shuts off and it reverts back to the factory defaults. You have to save your settings and then upload them into the controller. If you didn't -- I didn't, so I know -- you have to reprogram all your settings into the 3.04.

Not bad; it's like checking everything for no reason -- LOL.

So far it's working fine. Although I still can't get my WLAN online. I'll keep pluggin'

Well, My Lan was working flawless, Now the 3.04 will see the Profilux, but will not connect to it, reverting back to 3.03 does not help either, everything was backed up before the upgrade. Hope that Upgrade did not blow out the Lan card..., I have seen that happen before.

Thank Heavens for a Serial port connection yet, that seems to be OK, Going to have to figure this out, Got to love the Remeber this is a Beta version Disclaimer

Amp,

thank you for your feedback. After the update ProfiLux restores the factory settings. This is normal and no problem. After that you have to load the sensor data and the settings you saved before the update back to ProfiLux.
A warning occurs before you load the settings back to ProfiLux because the firmware changed - that can be ignored.
I updated here all ProfiLux without any problem.

Matthias,

Yes that would be correct, I was able to re establish a connection after stopping the profilux, then re booting, For some odd reason the IP search was seeing the unit but refused to connect.

After a hard restart it connected with no problems, I was always one to beta programs, always kept an original on my Lap top just in case

Thanks for all your hard work on a very cost effective unit.

I am not able to connect via WLAN to my Profilux. I just upgraded software/firmware to 3.04, the network sees it, the Control software sees it ... but it won't complete the connection. I have rebooted both my PC and the Profilux Comp and it isn't coming online.

Any ideas?

Regards,
