Cajun Cheesehead Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Question that will get this thread back on topic.Do I need Gen3 controllers to take advantage of the dimming curves, or can I just upgrade the firmware in my older controllers to the latest version?

-klb- Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Long ago, we were told of custom dimming curves as a firmware update to the gen2 controllers, but anyone holding their breath for it is no longer here.... And nobody has said anything official about the status of that project since the original announcement.Currently if you need dimming curves, you need Gen3 controllers...

friskybri Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I would think at this time LOR would make some kind of statement about the firmware on gen 2 controllers. This has been going on for over a year. I would like to know what the hold up is and I am sure many others are wondering about it also. Is there a problem with the gen 2 controllers where they can't be updated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-klb- Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 In a different post, I believe it was Plasmadrive who posted that on a help desk call, they indicated that there was not enough CPU power available in the 2nd gen controllers. I'm not sure if this is final, or if the lack of public announcement is just an indication that they have not completely given up on more efficient code being possible eventually. While I'd really love to see it, for now I'm planning for it to never be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
friskybri Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Wonder if there was a way to put in a new chip for low cost. I have no problem spending a few bucks and soldering to update the controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
