Follow up.  Since going back to 5.3.8, no more restarts for about 5 months. 

  This is exactly what I did as well.  No issues after 4 years of using this config.  

FYI, Tag has released an initial version of his Pentair Pool Control software.  I am now using it to control my pool and chlorinator.  Had it running for almost 2 days and all features I want are working.  My setup is a Pentair VS Pump, AquaRite salt chlorinator, and Intermatic Multi-wave pool...

Thanks for the update.  I have gone back to 5.3.8 which I think never had this issue.  I will let you know how it goes..... 

  Ah, so the controller is constantly sending packets then, right?  Not an issue.  Actually, after doing a resend every 2 seconds for 5 minutes, I only had a handful of packet collisions, and that had no impact on anything since all the other data is resent every 10 seconds.     Though I did end...

Spent some more time sending packets to the AquaRite today.  A few things to note:    - I never had even noticed the 'remotely controlled' LED on the panel of the AquaRite.  Sure enough, when you sent it a packet to control the % setting, the 'remotely controlled' LED does come on, but only for...

 OK, tag got this working for us.  I was able to  send (all in decimal)   16,2,80,17,10,0,125,16,3   and got back 16,2,0,18,64,0,100, 16,3   So the 64 mean 3200ppm salt?  That is right about what it should be.  Actually, it is about 3400 typically.   Also, I sent    16,2,80,0,0,98,16,3 and got...

 So just to be sure, are you able to talk to your AquaRite WITHOUT the controller attached at all?  I am still failing at this, though Tag just did an update to his code that might help me (I will try tomorrow).  I just wanted to confirm that you were able to talk to the AquaRite stand alone.  

OK, I might give that a try.  I was trying to use this to send packets to the Chlorinator:   echo -n -e '\x10\x02' > /dev/ttyUSB0   while at the same time monitoring the data from the /dev/ttyUSB using    od -x < /dev/ttyUSB0   but I never see the 10 02 coming across or getting a reply from the...

  Excuse my ignorance. What plc software?  

OK.  I have only been snooping mode right now using od -x < /dev/ttyUSB0 and flipping the bits (this gives MSB and LSB swapped for some reason).  I have not tried to inject any packets yet.  Just listening to see if I see the distinctive 10 02 or 10 03.  

Thanks.  Well, I have my RS485 connected to my IntelliFlow pump and my AquaRite Chlorinator.  I hooked up 12V power to the AquaRite.  I continue to get all the normal flow of traffic from the pump and the IntelliComII talking to each other, but not a peep from the AquaRite.  Please confirm for...

  Wow.  You really are a good puzzle solver.  I too tried to get something, anything back from the chlorinator but got zilch.   That explains it.  You are making great progress on this!!!  Have you been able to find a 'query' command that will cause the chlorinator to respond with its full...

After a full year with no "1367 system startup" issues, it's back!  Sitting at home, heard a double beep from my control pad, looked at the log on RP2, and saw the old 1367 again.  Only difference is that about 4 weeks ago I upgraded to 5.3.10.  If I get another one, I will revert back to 5.3.8...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing while going through all the different threads and posts here on on GitHub and other places. I will definitely join you there.     BTW, could it be the dec2bin function I saw in your code?  Sounds like you have the opposite happening though.     Anyway, see you...

  Brilliant work!  My first thought was baud rate, but seeing the 10 02 and 10 03 from the controller made me assume it was correct.  I have never seen 2 baud rates used at one time before.  Nice detective work!!!!   BTW, this is also nice because the Pentair runs at 9600 baud.  So this makes...

Tag, just recopying the thoughts on addresses we might use to deploy the 'man in the middle' concept:   Intellicom II                Physical                   Virtual                    Virtual                 Physical   Controller     <==>    Pump      <==>    Controller   <==>   Pump @ 0x10  ...

First, let me clarify the Intermatic Multi-wave.  The short version: For purposes of your program, Multi-wave = Intellicomm II.  Just ignore when I talk about Intermatic Multi-wave and think Intellicomm II.  Now, for the TL;DR version:  The Multi-wave is a low cost pool controller, similar (but...

Tag,   The next thing I would love to have in your code so that I could abandon my version is the ability to write variables to my ISY (or any system that uses a REST interface).  Here is an extract of the code I inserted to do this in my 'hacked' version of your software. Please understand I am...

Will give this a try in the morning.  Thanks!   EDIT: well, OK, I just could not wait.  I just loaded it up and it ran perfectly!!  See output: 23:42:37.341 INFO ******************************* Important: Configuration is now read from your pool. The application will send the commands to...
