Under I/O, the menu for Bluetooth sensors has disappeared. (I have tried to rebooted again.)
Version 3.00:
Version 3.01:
Not that it is used for setting the above, but in the the menu Settings, the Bluetooth menu has also disappeared:
Reinstalling Ver 3.00 did NOT return the Bluetooth sensors!
Is it a deliberate action or did I just loos my Bluetooth module on that installation. I'm a little cautious to upgrade the rest of my 7 systems!
Mounted a LogicLink BT0037 USB-Adaptor (ver 4.0) and the settings for Bluetooth were all back.
Conclusion: I lost the internal Bluetooth module. I hope it's a single incidence.
Hi; pls see Cerbo GX manual and serial number of your Cerbo.
The hardware up until a certain date has an issue with its Bluetooth radio.
Installing a small Bluetooh USB dongle, like you did, is usually the best solution.
What generally happens, is that this is an older model (as documented) which disables the onboard BT when it reaches a temperature threshold.
The upgrade process can be enough to do this, sometimes it will appear again when it cools a bit, but also, newer GX code seems to be a bit more intensive, so if you were near the temp threshold to start, it can just push you over this edge.
This is why, for those models, an external dongle is required for third party BT connectivity.
It is all in the manual as well.
