Woke up this morning to venus.local GUI-v2 not working. I had added nodered dashboard to my large image but had not started using it. Reverted back to small image and connectivity using venus.local restored. Is there some kind of issue with nodered dashboard that hangs the wifi GUI if dashboard is loaded and not used?
Did your system by any chance run an auto update?
It should not have - I have auto-update disabled. My history with this system was to install it. Update to latest: 3.60. Charge batteries to full. Run it down to 10%. Charge it to 50%. Switch to large image. Charge to full then down to 50%. Added nodered. Charged to 80% then down to 20%. Added time of use flow – my attempt at simple DESS. Ran that for a week. Added dashboard. Went to bed. No remote display the next morning. Now running small image.
Did the same test again. Normal image → Large image → Nodered → Simple flow → Dashboard (w/o using dashboard)
It took several hours - but now the remote wifi console is not responding again. I get the logo then “Loading…” and it never goes beyond that point.
The Cerbo responds to pings.
