10/18/2023 Map Stopped Working?
Visit this post for the fix
Not sure where this should be filed under. I fired up my large map for the first time in a year and the OLED's are not working, it has sat undisturbed all year.
Secondly when I did connect via the web interface it wasn't saving the changes to the number of led's and so forth that I made in the settings. Seems to be fixed by upgrading to 4.381. Although when I select the Advanced Profile with multiple OLED's it sets the number of LED's to 64 which is my other map and everything else seems to be set for the small map. I have 8 OLED's, 3 push buttons and the light sensor and no rotary switch. Why is the advanced profile not loading what the map is using?
How do I upgrade the map with 4.373 to the latest and not need to connect via HDMI to get it on the network so I can upload the settings I have saved?
Apologies for all the questions as I don't know why all this changed.
I just discovered the "Restore settings from file" and that loaded everything back to match this large map.
Ron,
Nothing has changed to any of these items. The only updates were to take care of bugs and to add the ability to connect thousands of airports instead of hundreds. Your original version should work just fine. However, upgrading is fine too.
Assuming you have backed up your config.py, airports and hmdata files somewhere you should be able to boot up the RPi, open your web browser and import these three files back to your map and it should work correctly. If you don't have these files available you will have to reset your settings, airports and heat map settings. Let me know and I'll help anyway I can. - Mark
Great! Good job. - Mark
@markyharris An airport is showing HAZE but there isn't a color setting for that in the LED Color settings page, it appears to be 2 shades of white, but I can't change that.
I believe there is a color for smoke and/or fog. That is the color used for haze. - Mark
@markyharris I changed the colors for fog and it doesn't change the effect for HAZE. Its KHAF airport. Here's the list I see in colors. However it seems to be flashing shades of white and not the blue/purple I set.
Thanks for that pic. Use Dust, Sand, Ash1. - Mark
