    help. my controller display stopped working and I'm not connected to fusion

    I'm new to this and I'm thinking I need to upgrade the firmware on the display. When I use the apex flash utility it is not showing my ip address. Do I need a new controller display to fix this problem or is there a way to find out my apex ip address? If I'm going about this all wrong please point me to the right direction. Only thing working are my pumps.

    Is the base unit light green, orange, or flashing orange? What about your modules.

    the e8 blinks orange and the controller module is either orange or doesn't light up at all.

    Then you need to do a "firmware force" and if that is unsuccessful, then you will need to contact support for diagnostics and likely need to send it in for repair.

    If the Apex hasn’t booted up fully and the status LED is not green, it won’t have an IP address.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
