I do not know ow what resolved the issue, but it went completely unresponsive a few months ago, and would not advertise its own ssid or connect to my ap. All of those reboots wouldn't recover it for more than a few minutes or hours, then offline again. Yesterday I disconnected the USB and modus cabl...

That's what it looks to be. It's working now.

I am consistently getting "Major Setback! I've Lost Contact with the Solar Controller. Verify Integrity of Communication Cable." Things had been working up until 3-4 months ago. When the issue occurs, the gauges still update live as normal, but the graph is blank, the log to SD is not upda...

Although the edge version shows , the dashboard has all of the newer graphical elements. MQTT is working again though. Thank you.

I changed it

Matching the failure start and the dashboard, it happened today at 14v pV and 0.93w pW. MQTT stops right when the snekTek dashboard shows the charge controller starts charging the battery. It is a 100w panel connected to a Renogy Wanderer. Attached are the Grafana/MQTT and snekTek dashboards for tod...

Discovered the unit updated automatically sometime between 1/22/23 - 1/25/23, and the mqtt settings had been reset to blank entries. I put back in the topic and server address, and data started flowing again after a reboot of the device, but at 8:02 this morning it stopped updating again. Deleting t...
