Scheduled "Wake" is not working

Purchased canvas a year ago, configured the schedule, and had no issues with the Wake function.

 

Recently upgraded the canvas’s software ver.to  2.2.10_2.0.13 AND deleted the schedule (wanted something new for 2022).   

 

The new schedule is configured to Wake in the AM, Sleep in the PM (M-F)

 

ISSUE: The new schedule works except it does not Wake each morning.

 

I used the same settings as the previous schedule, and not sure why it won’t wake.

  • Auto-adjust brightness was enabled
  • Sleep when room is dark is disabled
  • Power Mode is set to continuous Display Mode.

 

Thanks for tips:

 

Shawn

    Hello scmarti, 

     

    I understand that you are having issues with the scheduled wake feature on the Meural Canvas II. 

     

    Please try disabling the auto-adjust feature. 

     

    Please keep me updated on this issue.

      Kevin,

       

      It's working with auto-adjust disabled now.  However, it was working before when auto-adjust was enabled as mentioned.  Why does auto-audjust now need to be distabled.  Is this due to a recent update?

        Hello scmarti,

         

        Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. I informed my team of the Auto-Adjust Feature issue with the Meural Canvas. We are working diligently to solve this issue.

    Hi,

     

    @ joer1974

    and 

    scmarti

     

    The latest firmware for available for your Meural Canvas II is 2.2.12_2.0.12. Please ensure your Meural is on the latest released firmware.

     

    To update your firmware please do the following:

    Meural App > Settings > Canvas Details > Software Update

     

    Let me know if you have any additional questions!

     

    Best,

    Kevin

      Kevin, Thanks for the quick reply. When checking for the "current" Canvas Software version , I get two different results depending upon how I access this info. If I use the Canvas displayed menu and go to Canvas info>Software version, I get  2.2.10_2.0.13.

      If I go to your suggested place  Meural App > Settings > Canvas Details > Software Update

      I get 2.2.12_2.0.13.  

      If I select Software Update, I get "Canvas is already up to date".

      So, we have a conflict here & I have NO way of telling what version I have. But this is VERY consistent.  I have 30 years of software development experience and I WOULD NEVER allow this buggy a product to be released. This has NOTHING to do with programming resources. These should be VERY EASY bugs to fix. I am completely dumbfounded as to why a major corporation like Netgear allows a team to TRASH what it otherwise a fantastic product. I have had multiple conversations with the help desk & reported bugs (for ex:service number is 45840438), But NOTHING ever is fixed. Are you an employee of Netgear, or just someone that is trying to help out?  Thanks, Joe

        Hello @joer1974 ,

         

        I understand that there are two different read-outs depending on how the user accesses their firmware information for their Meural Canvas. 

         

        Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. 

        We will work diligently to get this discrepancy resolved. 

         

        Best,

        Kevin
