Hello,
a few days ago, my ColorControl lost the connection to the BlueSolar MPPTs. After reboot, it worked for some seconds an then the values from MPPTs were not longer updated. In ESS-Mode they stop working. I tried to connect one MPPT with USB-VE.Direct cable, but it also just worked for a few seconds.
I then tried to flash the latest firmware. Was 2.18 before and I installed 2.87 from SD-Card. But after the installation-reboot, the ColorControl did not start anymore, just hangs in bootscreen. After more than one hour, I decided to fore a new reboot, but it's not working anymore.
I used the Serial Console to connect to the device, enabled the kernel-boot-messages and this is the last printed output:

The strange characters at the end appear in two steps. When I then insert the SD-card, some more of this characters appear. It seems, they are simply console output but with wrong baud rate or so.
Have you ever seen this behavior before? Is the ColorControl simply broken or is there a chance to recover from this?
