Reviewing the posts on here I’ve noticed a lot of repeats and a lot of user errors mixed in with real issues as well as problems being prompted that have been solved. I would be nice to be able to know for sure if a problem is me or a problem that is being fixed or if its already fixed. For those reasons, and to try and assist the langmuir guys on deciding what to spend man hours on this initial post will be a list of both Requests that users would like added such as features in CC, or physical addons; as well as a current list of bugs(software/hardware) or other issues/user errors that are submitted on this thread.

Let me know if you think i should add a section for User Error Problems (ie. problems that were cause by being a noob like me and solved here somewhere). ideally id like to make this into a FAQ like megathread that will help noobs know if its “just them” or whatever. Ideally itd be nice to bunch up all user fixed problems here so its not a forum search for a possibly sub-par solution for the new MR-1 Owners out there.
If you have had a issue solved please post your issue concisely and a link to the solution thread. I’ll add it to the list.
I will review the comments weekly and add any items to the original post and update status based on feedback from Langmuir and others as they come in. Please Let me know if an issue has been solved already.
I’ m adding those that I am aware of but feel free to comment and I’ll get yours added/updated.
@langmuirsystems Feel free to make any edits to this post that you desire. I most likely missed
something you already answered/solved.
Now lets act like adults and try not to repost things 1000 times now that we have a reference.
