I've been posting this anywhere I can think of to find some insight. I am trying to update my ACIII with new timers and code. When I click Update, it starts to update, but then hangs. It has been updating now for over an hour and I have 5 bars on the status bar... I get a message at the bottom that says 'Waiting for {IP addy}/cgi-bin/program.cgi...' I don;t have any errors on the code (I worked through those). I originally had 27 timers, and it was truncating 3 of them (then I found the one place in all those I've searched that told me the max timers for the ACIII-I will likely need an ACIII Pro to get more timers...). I corrected the code issues, but still can't get it to finish the update. I've tried two separate computers and get the same result. Any ideas?

Here is the code

MH1$-A01

MH3$-A03
VH1$-A04
HT1%-A05

T53$-B11
CAP&-B12
CR4#-B13

Think I got it mostly working now... Neptune has contacted me and is working through the last little issues with me now.
 
I had to load the new additions slowly. If I tried feeding it everything at once, it choked... I loaded a few timer names, updated, the associated code, updated, more timers, more code, etc. It finally took it all. I downloaded the newest firmware this morning and the lastest edition of Aqua notes this morning, so I'll work on updating everything to see if that speeds up transfers. I am still having an issue with control over the last DC8, but was told by Curt at Neptune that if it is a 4 wire phone cord, it should work. I'm going to dig in and see what I can figure out. All the important stuff is running now, though. I was frantic there for a little while because I had rewired everytign to the DC's trying to get everythign ready for a quick switch to the generatior if Gustav turned this way, then couldn't get any controls, so I had to rewire last minute before bed that night. Not pleasant sounds emanating from the Flatness household that night;).
