Ecosmartlive down
I worked all day yesterday on getting a stand for my Radions set up and finally get them plugged in and the Ecosmart live site is down. Does this happen often? I really want to get started!!
Without the program what are the lights set at? With they go from night to day without programming them or will they just stay on constantly? Good news is I am finally filling my tank with water after 1 year of planning and building. |

Well that's very discouraging. If that is true I would not have paid this kind of cash for lights. Whats the use if I can't use ESL to program?
I would have thought I would see this on the forums though? Anyone else??? |

There are tons of threads on this very topic. Please search or look back for more information on what to do when ESL goes down. You only have to look back a few months to get some good information.

I have looked on this forum as well as goole searches and they all say the same thing.
1. Connect with device manager 2. Update firmware 3. Restore factory defaults. The issue I am getting is when I click on the firmware update I am getting a fatal error message. It retry's a few times but always comes up with a fatal error message. I powered down my lights for 30 seconds, plugged the second light in and tried again. Same message. |

I purchased mine yesterday as my old lighting system completely failed, when i open ecosmart live it states "we are currently experiencing issues that might prevent you connecting to your radions, you can continue to use the site but we suggest you check back later" is this the same error you are getting? I've tried searching for this error but no luck. is there a way around this can i set my lights up any other way?

I have searched and wasted my entire Sunday looking for answers. Hopefully this helps you out.
Although it is nowhere that I seen in the Radion literature there is a desktop utility you can use instead of ESL. Download the desktop utility. This worked for me. |

I have noticed that when I try to go to EcosmartLive with IE, it tells me that the browser is not compatible; if I try with Firefox, it tells me that the website is down and to try back later; and if I use Chrome, it works.

When I use my desktop Windows pc, IE doesn't work, but when I use Chrome, it does. When I use my Macbook it works with Safari and Firefox.
