Introduction
I've (quickly) made these notes to help people that ran in to trouble when using v3.20~16 or later in combination with Guimods or SetupHelper. More information about that in issue #55 here.
Note that this will reset the device to its defaults, all settings need to be redone. Also on VRM you'll need to reset the authentication code.
And, on somewhat older Cerbos, this will break the onboard wifi access point.
WARNING: don’t reinstall guimods or another third party add on until a new version has been released that prevents this.
0. Warnings
1. Download a recent install image here:
https://updates.victronenergy.com/feeds/venus/release/images/einstein/
Note that files in that folder are for the Cerbo GX. For other devices, go one dir up and use the right folder.
For Cerbo-S GX, use the cerbosgx folder.
For other devices, use the other folders, but knowing bit what is going on here, I expect/hope that really only the Cerbo and Cerbo S are affected.
2. Install the image on a usb stick or sdcard
I use RaspberryPi imager for that. Find it in Google. The option to select your own file is at the bottom of the list, see here:
Note that there is no need to unzip the zip file.
Once done, you'll see this:
3. Installing the image
Remove the sdcard from the computer, insert it in the Cerbo and power cycle it.
Now wait for a while, 5 minutes.
Or if you have a GX Touch, wait for it to say "Remove installer medium".
Then remove the sdcard and powercycle it again.
4. Completed.
