v2 Rocks!

Post by markolbert »

Thank you! I just installed the new firmware and UI, and find it much improved over the prior version I was using (1.7.2).

A few observations:

- The firmware update never automagically showed an update to v2.0.0. Instead, after about 15 minutes I opened a new browser window on port 8084 and saw that 2.0.0 was being displayed. Refreshing the window I had used to trigger the update showed the same thing.

- All of my device names were lost during the upgrade. Not a big deal, as I don't have that many (yet). But I don't recall seeing a note saying to write them down or export a config file or something. It might be helpful to add such a suggestion if it's not already there in the update instructions.

- I'm not sure, but it seems to me some of the control imagery may be missing. For example, I thought my Linear PS-15Z-2 showed a picture under 1.7.2. There isn't a picture under 2.0.0.

But those are all just quibbles. I love the new interface! It's much snappier, too. And I'm not sure if this is possible, but it seems like connectivity between the controller and the various devices is improved, too (e.g., commands don't take as long to execute).

1) we know it and this is to be fixed soon
2) in HA or in Expert UI? Should not happen in HA. In expert we don't import names from old Blue UI in new Expert (they use different name storage)
3) In Expert UI? We still use same DB of devices (ZDDX DB). But we will have a look, may be something is wrong.

Sorry, I should've said which interface I was using...

All of my observations are from within Expert UI.

I checked, and the "old" names came across in HA.
