Venus OS v3.60 released officially

Hello, may be a coincidence, but my CCGX is constantly restarting now!

To print out and hang on your office wall:

  1. Assumptions are the mother of all fsckups
  2. Trust, but verify

:wink:
Hope y’all devs can catch your breaths again after this release.

Grid Setpoint doesn’t work at my installations on the v3.60 release:

Mine was updated from v3.55 to v3.60 yesterday and grid is nicely around my 150W setpoint.
This doesn’t mean there can’t be a bug with negative setpoints, that’s something I haven’t tested (yet).

Are you running modifications or a complex system ?
The CCGX is on the lower end of CPU power in the GX product range.
If the CPU is often running against its limitations, the watchdog timer might trigger a reboot.

No, just standard things a few bluetooth connections (ruuvi)

It looks like the wifi connection is not stable!

"Testing is lack of confidence of the programmer " :wink: :laughing:

A post was split to a new topic: Dynamic ESS: on/off switch issues in v3.60?

You can change your watts to amps in display setting preferences

Especially for you!
Enjoy!

UPD: Screen from v3.55
Any other questions?

Note this message posted just now related to CCGX and Color Control GX:

Especially @HaroldO thank you for the report and my apologies for the trouble! Most likely the solution in your case is to run, and keep running, v3.55.

Even though its not what we want, a slightly increase of CPU usage over time during software development seems to be unavoidable. Not only our own developed software, but also all the underlying parts like Linux, Python and similar. Sometimes we can offset that by making a major improvement, ie. decrease in CPU usage. Like a while back with all the MQTT improvements, and before that something else. But not this time.

For now, have a good night.

More later.

Node-RED issue I reported regarding the beta, now it is on the production → V3.60~72 Node-Red Settings Control component - missing options for Venus Settings

I Have Been running 3.60~87 for the past week on my Boat. Cerbo with a 3000 Inverter, Shunt and 250/100 Solar. So far it is running stable. I just noticed its asking to me update to 3.60 .

Yes, V3.60 is now official release so this supersedes beta version~87, no more ~XX numbers.

Ran the update to 3.60 from VRM portal. update was successful Howver the update resets everything and makes the unit headless. No display no touch screen. had to roll back to 3.55 any update on a fix?

Where is this setting to display in Ah??
