DA just released myReef 2.0. This allows you to update to the latest firmware and provides an easy PC interface so you can program your controller on your PC. This was previously in a beta release.

 

[Tarazed]

Did you have a chance to try it?

 

[Tarazed]

Can't figure out how to down load myreef 2.0. Also, it looks like the SID ?? needs to be replaced??

You need the SID2, also I think the release was recalled due to technical issues.

Yes, just discovered this too. The SID needs to bes replaced and it's not available. The thing is useless without the new SID. I'm anxious to update my firmware since my SL2 stops working from time to time.

You can send your existing SID in free of charge and they will update it for you, I believe all you have to do is pay for shipping both ways.

 

[Tarazed]

But then you have no controller? And for how long? May be worth paying $10 for a new SID2

You don't need the SID to run your controller. I believe the SID2 is 20 bucks, if you can get it for 10 let me know where.

Sid2 isn't available on their website. Maybe one of the dealers here could tell us what's going on with it.
Imho it would be pretty sh#%@y of them to make us pay for it, even for shipping unless it's just few bucks.

IMO, it's a small price to pay considering they could be charging you for the update. R & D isn't cheap.

This back from April, not sure if the upgrade program is still valid.

The program is still valid. I sent in two SID devices before Christmas and they came back shortly after new year's. Updating the firmware was pretty easy but after updating the head unit and modules I had to reprogram the whole thing. But it's pretty easy since programing is now done through the computer. I'll also have to recalibrate the pH probe, maybe tonight.

Thanks for the update! I'll send mine out this coming week...

I sent mine last week.
