Current Released Zee Build

[jonathanz]

What is the current release Zee build? My Zee is at 3.0.0.71 and when I hit the update button it doesn't update. I was going to force an update to 3.0.0.83, but that looks like it's still in beta testing and since I'm new to HS I'm thinking that might not be a great idea.

.83 is the latest beta build.
I'm experiencing heavy CPU load with this build and am still working on tracking it down.

Thanks for the info. I'm really interested in the my homeseer functionality. Would it be safe for me to use the .80 build if I can get it or would I be better off waiting for the official release? My zwave network is very simple right now as I phase out Insteon.

I would wait a bit for an official release. I have ~22 zwave nodes but cant seem to pinpoint this increased load average.

When you do decide to upgrade, you might consider pulling the SD card out and imaging the card prior to the upgrade. It only takes a few minutes to completely image the Zee and restore it if something goes wrong.

Yup here noticed a second update of around 35 patches/updates to the original Wheezy base OS occurred last night. Took a while to update as I was running the updates while HS3 was running.

The Zee will need to be rebooted though as there were some basic updates to the wheezy kernel (bunch of security stuff).

That said still base lining HS with only your script / event running and nothing much else.

I am also using a 16Gb SD card with some over 5 Gb of data now on it.

Good tip. Do you know if opening up the Zee to get the card will void the warranty?

No - it wont void the warranty.
