LHCS latest firmware?

[Cossa]

I finally got my LHCS installed on a 100A circuit after having my service upgraded to 400A. What are the latest safety and network firmware versions?

 

[Cossa]

I am currently on:
Network Version : 01.01.24
Safety Version: 02.14.54

 

[DeaneG]

I'm on:
Network FW version : 01.01.25
Safety FW version : 02.14.51

Mine has been powered on and connected to wifi for over a year, and rebooted many times recently due to other electrical work.
Could there be hardware differences between LCHCS units which limit the applicable firmware versions?

 

[DeaneG]

I see that my LCHCS, even though connected to my home wifi using a DHCP address reservation, is showing an incorrect gateway address, even after a reboot.
I changed my LCHCS to use a static IP in its config menu and assigned the gateway correctly. We'll see if that triggers a firmware update.

 

[DeaneG]

Fixing the default gateway address didn't trigger my LCHCS to update its safety firmware. Don't know if that means anything though.

Mine is the same as your's Deane: 01.01.25 and 02.14.51 and I've been hooked up for over two years.

@SaratogaLefty @DeaneG Mine are also the same as yours.

Well that's very encouraging since I haven't used it hardly at all. Used it to charge my son's Tesla 3 when he comes up to visit us. Used it a couple of times on the Genesis and a couple of times early on with the Lucid. Next March my EA free is up so then it will be used consistently. Also forgot to mention that Borski was the one who figured out how to get it connected to our wi-fi.

I’m still having issues connecting mine to our Wi-Fi.
I know it currently doesn’t do anything and I have followed the directions repeatedly. But it still fails!
I would just like to get this done.
Any help would certainly be appreciated.

Pardon my ignorance, What is LHCS?

Lucid Home Charging Station. Answered my own question…

 

[DeaneG]

It's properly LCHCS, Lucid Connected Home Charging Station, though the Connected part is a little thin right now.

The WIFI SSID is case sensitive, and 5G doesn't appear to be supported (by my testing, at least), so try it with the 2.4GHz network SSID.

You'll want to get to know your router interface well enough to be able to tell when a new device shows up on the DHCP reservation list and what IP it was assigned so that you can then connect to the LCHCS web interface using that IP.

Network FW version : 01.01.25
Safety FW version : 02.14.54

 

[DeaneG]

Right, the Wi-Fi module inside the LCHCS is 2.4 GHz only.

@SaratogaLefty we're just not safe people

For those with 100 amp connections... have you been able to charge at 17/18kw throughout the session? I usually charge around 150 - 200 miles left with my GT and by the time it gets close to 300 miles, it throttles down to 9kw for the rest of the way which defeats the whole purpose of the 100amp charge speed.

 

[coma24]

Yes, full speed observed up to 85%. I haven't charged it beyond that, though.

Thanks for replying. I tried explaining that to the service center that others have been able to charge at 18 kw continuously. I am only charging to 80% too. It just throttles down to 9kw when it hits around 270 - 290 miles. Frustrating. Service center told me that it tapers as the battery gets more charged, but I assumed it was only DC charging!!

So how do we get updated to Safety FW version: 02.14.54??
