Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / Local inputs floating?

« on: 2024-06-06, 18:51:31 »

I have had this issue before, but I think I finally found the real issue with my Webswitch 1216H.

The issue presents itself by toggling my local relays ON at seemingly random intervals. The issue affects relay 1 the most, but also affects relay 2 (less often)
I have Input 1 control relay 1 using the Auto Control Program.
I have input 2 control relay 2 using the ACP.
Disabling the ACP resolves the issue, but the obviously I can't control my relays with my switches.

For the purpose of troubleshooting, I disconnected the wiring connected to IN1, 0V and IN2. I then refreshed the inputs-page on the webserver and I can see that inputs are toggling between HIGH and LOW very frequently, almost on every refresh.

Measuring with a digital multimeter between IN1 and 0V I get 15,2VDC
Measuring with a digital multimeter between IN2 and 0V I get 15,4VDC

I can't see any fluctuation in the voltage while measuring, voltage seems stable, but I understand the my DMM wouldn't pick up short voltage drops.

I conducted the tests again with wiring to the switches in place this time, and I can see that toggling the switches indeed pulls the inputs from 15V to 0V (and back to 15V again since my switches pulse the inputs"

What voltage is expected on the inputs?
Could this be a software glitch? See my posts from a few years back: https://www.remoterig.com/forum/index.php?action=profile;area=showposts;u=2852

Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / Re: Nexa, ACP, Car Warmup gone after FW update

Ok, so it seems the device somehow got corrupt again, this is the 3rd time this happens and the way I notice it because one specific relay is being turned on and off (webswitch rebooting).

Could it be that the bootloader has been corrupted and therefor causing these errors?

I know this may seem far fetched, but every time this has happened I have been running Kodi on an Xbox One, with Home Assistant in the background monitoring kodi status to monitor/automate relay 1 on the webswitch. I have other automations doing basically the same thing, but I've only ever seen this issue when (and every time) I've been running kodi on Xbox One

just noticed that my model description is "Home Standard"

Is this because of the fw, or where can I find the extended version?

Configuration, Webswitch 1216H / Nexa, ACP, Car Warmup gone after FW update

Ok, so somehow my 1216H FW got corrupt, I first noticed when lights started turning on/off randomly. Visiting the web UI I had strange characters all over the place, and couldn't really do anything since the UI was expecting authentication, but i never set this up.

I decided to try and update the FW and successfully flashed the latest version. The system was back and accessible again with the hardwired relays working.
Unfortunately, I noticed I flashed the HAM version because, well, I'm an idiot. To my defense, the zip files are named inconsistently, where HAM is not present on the HAM version, but HOME is.

Anyway, I flashed the Home version, and that FW is also accessible, but I'm missing Nexa, ACP, Car warmup, maybe more?

Here's the sys info from the Web UI:
