    IntelliCenter - Revert back to Firmware Version 1.064

    Anyone else just get auto updated to 2.017? I know for a fact that I didn’t update it, yet, I just noticed that my IntelliCenter was updated (my poolcontroller dashboard wasn’t working) to 2.017. I’ve just rolled back to 1.064 and it’s back to working perfectly again.

    Pentair Microbrite light colors

    You can do it from the web version or from the iOS app (likely easier from the app when your near your pool). Just go open all, go to lights, select your color mode and you’ll see the hold and recall buttons. If I am not mistaken, HOLD is the 13 on/off cycles and RECALL is the 14 on/off cycles...

    Pentair Microbrite light colors

    Just to clarify, you can hold and recall just one color in a light show that you want as your favorite. You won’t be able to “snapshot” multiple colors for future use. Which is a shame because some of the blue and orange/yellow shades look quite stunning in our pool.

    Pentair IntelliCenter Pool Control Dashboard Instructional Guide

    Wanted to thank @rstrouse and @tagyoureit for their help (over on the repo). As it turns out, a storm last week blew out only 1 of my com ports on my IC main board (com “b”, J4). Long story short, that was the one my IC board was connected to, so NONE of the com ports were responding. Once I...

    It is 15 million degrees outside - and I’m replumbing

    This made me laugh. As someone who lives in the NY/NJ area, we only consider it “vacation” when we leave the state :)

    Outlet covers - weird questions

    I purchased the extra deep ones on Amazon on our outlets. Even have room to coil the plug cord a bit. To make room for the second cord.

    Nah. It’s just what I used from the onset. I’ll need to delete rc.local and switch to PM2. I’ll report back once I do it (won’t be home until weekend).

    Pentair IntelliCenter Pool Control Dashboard Instructional Guide

    @rstrouse seems like my issue is only the fact neither pool controller nor dashboard is starting at reboot anymore (despite having rc.local setup properly). Works fine when I “npm start&” in each directory manually. If you have any recommendations on troubleshooting that would be amazing.

    Even if I manually start poolcontroller. It works for a minute and then automatically disconnects. I tried to figure out what to submit on GitHub and how to pull logs but couldn’t really figure it out. I need to spend some more time on it, but, in the interim the pentair app is working...

    Back up and running, but perhaps dash panel is not updating. I tried multiple times. Is 7.7.0 the latest?

    So... I went to update dash panel and pool controller. Dash panel updated just fine (needed "nom audit fix" due to 2 medium and 1 high vulnerability). Updating nodejs pool controller returned this error: :~/nodejs-poolController $ npm i npm ERR! code ENOTSUP npm ERR! notsup Unsupported engine...

    Cleaning fiberglass steps in pool?

    IntelliCenter error - SWCG Communication

    I haven’t had an error messages. In fact, I haven’t had ANY messages emailed to me. Too be fair, I don’t really use the native intellicenter app. I may not even have my email in there anymore :)

    Water proof wireless speakers

    We have this anker speaker and love it. https://www.amazon.com/Soundcore-Titanium-Technology-Waterproof-Bluetooth/dp/B08LQNL42Z You can also get a pair of them for true stereo sound (they paid to each other). There is a newer version, but I haven’t seen nor heard it.

    @rstrouse it doesn’t bring up the color options/palette. It only turns the lights on or off. The color icon is there, but not functioning properly:

    I reported it on GitHub, but with the new version I cannot select color light output. I can turn the lights on and off, but can’t select the small color palette icon anymore.
