Just checked and my app is at 3.4 automatically. Are we sure that it was a recent release though?

vhuang168 · 03/22/2017, 08:15 AM

My app is 3.3(beta). Just downloaded 3.4

Isn't firmware still the same? Did you get new beta firmware? Or did they release new firmware on the website?

My firmware is 3.4. Has been since 12/16

Anyone notice any difference in the Android app? Still seems like the same slow crappy app that it was before lol.

ryshark · 03/22/2017, 10:40 AM

How do we update it? Go to App Store and re-download it?

I'm beta testing the firmware 3.4 for lights themselves a few good features I've noticed is colors change and fade smoother and a few other cool features so far I line the update worth the hassle I don't know when it will be available to everyone yet

vhuang168 · 03/28/2017, 05:49 PM

3.4 firmware was just recently released to the public.

I got confirmation form Franco at Kessil 3.4 does address issues with the light flashing off them on. Everyone should download the new app version even if you had the beta and open it up, preview then save your lighting schedule.

Franco says if you notice further issues with this please note time.

Do we know what exact changes the new 3.4 firmware provides? I.E. is there a list somewhere? Thanks

3.4 just launched, it includes updates not included in the beta. However I'm not aware that a more recent firmware has been published however I have pushed the question to Franco at Kessil and awaiting his reply. Looking at the Kessil web site it does list a 3.4 firmware so I assume that it has been though I've not updated the firm ware just yet.

The Firmware is 3.4, I have no notes on it. But I was able to upgrade no problem.

Hope it addresses the flickering. Have the beta and it does it occasionally.

I pulled my slight diffusion lenses off of the light last night to see how my corals react. I really like the subdued effect of the lenses, but they *really* impact the brightness of the light visually. Hope all of my corals stay happy!

sixpackgarage · 03/29/2017, 09:25 AM

Installed 3.4 firmware last night. Got a call from work around 4 am so then I couldn't sleep.. at 4:40 am the light turned on for about a second..like quick flicker. Not sure if it's the new firmware as I'm usually not awake at that hour.. hmmmm

Did you download the app though? It will replace the beta.

The light just seems to do that sometimes. It'll flicker on when it's off, or off when it's on. Not frequently, but it does happen. No idea why.

Franco from Kessil said that the published app (not the beta) addressed this exact thing. If you have already confirmed the firmware and downloaded 3.4 app and still have the issues to note the time of occurrence and notify him.

Did you open, connect, preview schedule, then save?

I don't know what it is about this process exactly but that's exactly what they instructed me to do it.
