Try com 3. Try com 2, com 4, etc... mine is com 3. Like reefwiser says you can actually check in comp settings. Or just try them all

Com 3 worked!


Ok, going to keep going. Guys, thanks for checking in. I appreciate the help.

Do any of you live near Annapolis? I would happily pay someone to show me how to do this.

I can pay in cash, Coral, fish, whatever...lol

Lol. Nope. Louisville KY

Once you get it setup and probes calibrated, it's pretty easy. I use the app almost exclusively.

If you have a firmware update available for your unit and haven't done any programing I would do it.

Should I try a firmware update before I try anything else?
Yes! Don't connect any of the pabs and run the update. Good idea

You can also update the wifi module while you're at it, but it should update with the fw anyways

When you installed GCC software did you also have it install the com driver?

Inside of windows device manager of you expand the com ports do you see anything with a yellow exclaimation point?

I think he got GCC installed and running now.

Seperate note I wonder if GHL is working on a wireless initial setup for the p4 like they have now with the doser? It may be too complicated, but would be nice to avoid the mac/pc only discussions in the future. Lol

Ok, firmware update complete. What should be the next video I watch? The one that sets up Profilux via WiFi?

I have completed this. How do I get my power strip set up and set up my probes?
