    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    Just wanted to update everyone on the outcome of my bricking the MSP unit. The Hayward tech came out to the house and fully replaced my MSP (touch screen controller). He told me that there should have been NO issue upgrading directly from 3.0 to 5.0.x and that they had a number of MSPs that...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    I'll ask the tech today where to find the files, all of these should be made available to all customers hiding them is simply a terrible disservice to customers and installers. They already publish them on their site once, why wouldn't they share all the previous versions of firmware like most...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    Ok, this is amazing, but I called support and explained my problem and the support person that answered said she would have an Engineer call me. I thought that was going to be a major brush off, but no! I just got a call back from engineer based here in St. Petersburg, FL. I was told that...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    Chris thanks for taking the time to make the call for me! But I'm still baffled by what to do next?? Allen, you read my mind when I read Chris's response, how is it possible I've bricked this brand-new control board by following Haywards instructions?? They don't even have an archive for the...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    Thanks for the help on this!! So since this board is brand new shouldn't any MSP backup will.work? I dont care what config is used as I can reset it to factory setting and then program it. If it's Bricked then Hayward owes me a new board. Because anyone with new board will have the same...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    I did not do a backup config as there wasn't anything to really backup as the board was new. I have not tried to reboot the system with the USB drive in the slot. I pulled the USB card out after I cut the power for the first reboot. This was about 15min after the system rebooted the first...

    Upgrading Omnihub Firmware from 3.0.0 to 5.0.1 via USB - Reboot not completing

    I've read all the various Omnihub firmware upgrade horror stories on the forum, but I can't seem to find a definitive answer on how to recover from this 5.0 upgrade reboot issue. The summary is that I upgraded firmware from 3.0 to 5.0.1 and its stuck in the spinning circle of death rebooting…...

    T-Cell Chlorinator Diagnostics not populating in Hayward Omnilogic App

    So I've never gotten these values to populate correctly, the cell works fine but mine is also reading the salt level incorrectly. My understanding from other posts on the forum is that the Average Salt measurement is all you get and its not an actual measurement but rather an approximation...

    T-Cell Chlorinator Diagnostics not populating in Hayward Omnilogic App

    Hi All, Newbie on the forum so I would appreciate some help figuring this one out! I've seen a few other old (locked) threads on the forum, but no real answers as to if its fixed via firmware or some other change, so I'm asking the question again in hopes that someone has already figured...
