I'm getting the same error. Although my pc crashed and I had to reinstall PC Access, but I'm stuck on version 3.0, so I assumed that was it. When trying to update, it can't find "PCA3D_EN - 0version.xml". Can't find any other download links to get off 3.0. I don't understand why it's so hard for me to find.

Good News!
I tried to send you a private message with download link for Dealer PC Access, but cocoontech system won't allow me to send you a message yet.
I need to also determine why my ALC board keeps going offline, since I updated firmware last year. Might not be a firmware issue, but didn't start having problems until 4.0B.

Speaking of which...
Pete: do you know which version of the firmware was the last one to support analog video to the small touchscreens? Like you (I think), I have the board that supported the small touchscreens with video. They still work, but the videocam display doesn't.

Last version of firmware supports the old serial OmniPro 5.7 and 3.5 screens just fine.
The analog video ran on one of the wires. IE: power, RX, TX, Ground and Video.
I used an Omnitouch / video hub. I also used an IP to analog video device to get the IP video over to the screens.
What didn't work was the pop up analog video when the doorbell rang and that was fixed.

I too had the issue a few days ago. I was in the midst of trying to set up a UPB Module (in another post), installing a new Omnistat RC-1000 and I had the same error message. The entries in the Time and Date fields n PCAccess said something like "RESET THE TIME AND DATE". When I clicked the field the error message came up. I continued with my Lamp Module problem and eventually forgot about the time and date problem. I just went back in and it as displaying the proper information. However, when I clicked on the field, the same error message came up. Will also write support. I have version 3.17.0843.
P.S. My ALC light have not worked for 2+ years. They all of a sudden stop working. Switching to HUE as they control the Outside Floodlights and switches are in garage where the previous owners only ran two wires to...so had to use ALC.

Still no update. Now I am finding another issue and can't help but think it may be tied to the clock issue. I have almost 400 lines of automation programming and wanted to add another button and action. I can create the button and upload everything to the controller but this button will not show up on the consoles nor in SnapLink. Clearing the new button from the file and reading the setup from the controller confirms that's it's not programming the controller.
I set the clock back on the PC used for programming to year 2020 (same day and time) and sure enough it will program just fine. This is another issue with the date/time not supporting 2021.

It's finally here! The update was just released. version 3.17.1.856
The new version that fixes the time issue (and I assume the failure of writing a new Setup configuration) is out as of today, 02-08-21. The release notes state that it was released on Friday, January 22, 2021; but it probably had to go through some beta testing first. I confirmed the time/date update does work now.
No new release on firmware on the controllers. Other options/boards may have a new release, I don't bother with those since I don't have any.

I just. Otuced that I think their release notes are wrong. The version I posted 3.17.1.856 is what was just released and fixed the time issue. Have you tried to see if you can update the date/time?JonW said:I just checked for updates and was able to get 3.17.1.856, but not the newer version.
