Hello guys, ive ran the calibration on multiple channels, and got it correctly set to minV0 maxV10, intially it was 2.4 and 6.1 from the factory, after calibration its not correct. however, once its at 10v, i can not set it to anything else, the commands say it is set to 0, board thinks it at 0, but im measuring 10v with my meter, any suggestions:
Automata@Automata:~ $ sudo python3 set_cooling.py 0
{"status": "success", "channel": 2, "requested": 0, "actual": 0.0}
Automata@Automata:~ $ sudo 16uout 0 uoutwr 2 0.00

Automata@Automata:~ $ sudo 16uout 0 uoutrd 2
0.000

Hi,

I do not follow what you describe here completely, but it looks like you did a wrong calibration. The solution is to reset the calibration, but I just realised the command is not implemented yet. Give me a few days and I will update the 16uout command to reset the calibration.

Hi,

My mistake, you can reset the calibration by running "16uout 0 uoutcal <channel> reset", check the full functionality by running "16uout -h uoutcal"

Hi,

You can use the exec node to run the 16uout command line interface. We have some customers that use this method eve there are native nodes, claiming is faster than the JS code inside the native nodes.

I do not remember who discovered this, but the current card firmware version has some problems controlling the LEDs, so we released a new firmware version to fix that.
Here are the instructions for the firmware update procedure.
