Have you lost them completely, or have the thermostat buttons changed to switches? BTW, you should run the serial logger and see if you can use the ID below, if so uncomment the line. That will make changing heater setpoints instant rather than going into programming mode. |

Ok looks like I have lost serial connection. Had my wife restart the aqualink control panel, unplugged/replugged my usb adapter, rebooted raspberry pi and didn't change anything for my serial connection. Not sure why I lost that, I don't ever touch that stuff. Would losing serial cause the buttons to disappear?
Notice: RS Serial: RS485 interface received 600 packets in 20 seconds (~30.00 Msg/Sec) |

From your config, you have below That looks like you have renamed them to none (which stops them displaying) On a RS6 panel, button 8 and 9 are the heaters. But you could always force the label. THIS only forces the name, it does not change the functionality, ie you could name an on/off switch "Pool Heater" rather than a Setpoint switch. |

Thanks I guess I uncommented them all when I renamed the few I needed to change and saw that they were on 10 & 11 and didn't think anything of it. Works now I appreciate the help. One quick question. How do I determine what version I am running. I don't think you've made updates since last time but just want to know which version I have |

They seemed to have been there before I changed the labels on aux2 and 3 and now I can't turn the heater on/off. Not sure what I did to screw this up? Here is my config for my RS6 Combo panel, replaced the # with *** this this was making them all bold...
*** aqualinkd.conf
*** The directory where the web files are stored
web_directory=/var/www/aqualinkd/
*** Log to file, comment out if you do not want to log to file
***log_file=/var/log/aqualinkd.log
*** The log level. [DEBUG_DERIAL, DEBUG, INFO, NOTICE, WARNING, ERROR]
*** Pick the highest level, and all levels below will be sent to syslog.
*** your syslog settings may be set to only display messages above a certian level
*** in which case make sure you use the log_file settings to capture everything
*** you want when debugging
*** so, NOTICE also prints WARNING & ERROR
*** DEBUG_SERIAL would print everything possible
***log_level=DEBUG
***log_level=INFO
log_level=NOTICE
***log_level=WARNING
*** Display any ERROR & Warning messages in web interface.
display_warnings_in_web=true
*** The socket port that the daemon listens to
*** If you change this from 80, remember to update aqualink.service.avahi
socket_port=80
*** The serial port the daemon access to read the Aqualink RS8
serial_port=/dev/ttyUSB0
***serial_port=/dev/ttyAMA0
*** Your RS panel size. ie 4, 6, 8, 12 or 16 relates to RS4, RS6, RS8, RS12 or RS16.
*** VERY important that you select 12 or 16, if you have either of those size panels.
*** Also don't think setting a 12 when you have a 8 will give you 4 more accessories to control, it won't the
*** panel information is needed as different panels use different bits within the RS protocol for status and key
*** presses.
*** serial_logger will get the panel type string if you don't know it, below are examples.
*** Must be in format
XX-N ????(XX=RS or PD, N=Circuits, ????=Combo or Only or Dual)panel_type = RS-6 Combo
***panel_type = PD-8 Combo
***panel_type = RS-16 Combo
***panel_type = RS-2/14 Dual
***panel_type = RS-4 Combo
***panel_type = RS-6 Only
*** If serial_logger doesn't give you a type string in the format above, you can use the next options to set the specifics.
*** (Number of supported accessories / buttons)
*** panel_type_size = (6, 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16)
*** panel_type_combo = (yes or no) (combo panels support BOTH pool & spa)
*** panel_type_dual = (yes or no) (dual circuit panel)
*** panel_type_pda = (yes or no) (PDA panel. only set this if you have to. Panel ONLY supports the PDA protocol)
*** panel_type_rs = (yes or no) (RS panel. Panel Supports all protocols)
*** The ID of the Aqualink terminal device. Devices probed by RS8 master are:
*** 08-0b, 10-13, 18-1b, 20-23, 28-2b, 30-33, 38-3b, 40-43
*** Working RS ID's are 0x0a 0x0b 0x09 0x08 <- 0x08 is usually taken
*** If your panel is a PDA only model, then PDA device ID's are 0x60, 0x61, 0x62, 0x63.
*** (These are NOT recomended to use unless you absolutly have no other option)
device_id=0x0a
*** The ID of Jandy SerialInterface device. These is only one usable ID, if serial_logger
*** picks up your panel supports this, uncomment, as it will speed up heater setpoints & RS16 panels.
***rssa_device_id=0x48
*** The ID for extended settings to allow for faster programming
*** VARIABLE SPEED PUMP are only supported with this option.
*** Do not enable this if you don't use either, you'll just waste memory and cpu cycles
*** Valid ID's are 0x40, 0x41, 0x42 & 0x43. for ONE Touch
*** Valid ID's are 0x30, 0x31, 0x32 & 0x33. for Aqualink Touch
***extended_device_id=0x31
*** If you have extended_device_id set, then you can also use that ID for programming some features.
*** This means that you can turn things on/off while AqualinkD is programming certian features.
*** If you are using Aqualink Touch protocol for extended_device_id then this is highly recomended
*** as it will speed up programming substantially. if One Touch it's 50/50.

***pda_sleep_mode = yes
*** If you have a SWG connected to the control panel, set this to yes.
*** AqualinkD can only detect a SWG if it's on, so after a restart you will not see/access a SWG until the the next time the pump is on.

*** 0.4 seems to be the minimum. (workd for light modes below 10 presses)
*** 0.6 seems to work about 95% of the time, but above 20 presses can be hit or miss.

*** If using PDA mode, The Labels below are of the utmost importance, the labels MUST match the labels in the "EQUIPTMENT ON/OFF" menu of the PDA device.
*** RS 16 Panels have no protocol bit representation for AUXB5 to AUXB8, only text, so as with PDA Those labels MUST match the control panel
