Firmware 179002 is now available as a "Release Candidate #2" version for the following devices:
  • Control 4
  • Control 2
  • Control XS
Firmware 179002 DOES NOT apply to WaveEngine and IceCap Controller.

IMPORTANT: If you have issues installing firmware 179002 where you install the firmware but the unit reverts back to previous, then do the following: Tap on the "Install 179" button and then immediately kill/close the app. Wait 60 seconds and then return to the app and everything should be ok.

As always, you can also control your devices using our CoralVue HYDROS Web App.

What is Release Candidate?

Release Candidate (RC) is the build released to check if any problems have gone undetected into the code during the previous development period. In most cases, there are no differences between the final build and the last release candidate.

Release Candidate is NOT the same as Final version. If you install a Release Candidate version, the app will warn you, "Firmware update available. The firmware in this unit does not match the current release," which is normal. Just cancel and continue normal use of the device. Once the Release Candidate version is marked as Final Version, the app will cease notifying you.
