chopedogg88 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 actually it states that the v2 (or v200) driver requires OS3 right there by the download link. I updated the site to mention it on the home page as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can provide a rough ETA for that release, I could decide whether or not I will upgrade to os3 and purchase a new controller. Thanks as always.

me23 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 So let me get this straight. If you have generation 2 echos, not only do you need the v2 driver you also have to upgrade to OS3. Really? I have 2.10.6, you can’t make it work with that? I really don’t want OS3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im confused as well honestly. I thought they were working on a patch for 2.10.6 as I dont want to purchase a controller and upgrade to os3 as my system is stable besides the epic driver.

me23 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Well I have an ea5, but I just don’t feel like upgrading. I’m happy with my system right now, and I don’t have time troubleshooting a new OS anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopedogg88 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It will only update the time when you do the discovery or call a trigger from Alexa. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Leeds UK Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 We have Gen 1 dots ~ on OS3 - HC800 - so should we be on the older driver ? this driver we are unable to programme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msgreenf Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Do you mean gen 2? The first gen dots were by invite only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 I'm not sure what's going on with Gen 1 Dots - haven't had the ability to test. Who knows if Amazon will update the firmware on those so its not like we can guarantee anything, we are at their will. My partner is working on modifying the driver to work with 2.10.6 - he's been out of the country for the past 10 days, sorry for the delay! If you can't wait, you still always have the option of using the Control4 skill/driver. We cannot guarantee our drivers to work on every combination of Control4 and Amazon firmware unfortunately...we are a 2-person shop...thanks for your understanding and glad that you all can't live without our awesome driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopedogg88 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 glad that sorted it for you Gary. Also for those who can't upgrade, another option is to buy a Gen 1 Echo, as far as I know they are still working with the v180 driver. not sure if Amazon will update those. msgreenf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes still working, my Prime echo is Gen 1, rest of house is gen 3, show, etc, all working well cause I believe gen 1 will not be updated being an old hardware!

drmark12pa Posted October 16, 2019 Share Posted October 16, 2019 I couldn't figure out why Alexa suddenly wasn't acting on my commands though she would say "OK".... I have 3.0 so obviously my 1.8 driver isn't working now either. Has anyone transferred their old programming from the 1.8 driver to the 2.0 driver yet? I'm guessing I'll have to have my dealer do this? I have a ton of programming using the driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dutsnekcirf Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 So I'm on 2.10.6. I have three HC-250s in my project and Gen2 echos. If I'm understanding correctly, I have to upgrade to 3.0 in order to get my Gen2 echos to work again? In order to upgrade to 3.0 I have to replace all three of my HC-250s to EA series controllers. As I understand it, HC-250s are not allowed in software version 3.0. I suspect upgrading to 3.0 will cost well over $1000, and all that just so that I can get my echos to work again. or buy gen1 echos. Or...wait until your partner updates the driver to work with 2.10.6. Has he made any progress on this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopedogg88 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 No unfortunately he's been out of the country dealing with some family issues.I would either use the c4 skill for Alexa, or buy some cheap Gen 1 echos for now.You may also not even necessarily need those hc250s... What are they doing exactly? I've upgraded several systems where people had extra hardware that they weren't really using anymore and we were able to trim it down.
