First time connect - Device configuration

Troubleshooting
1

Hi

I am starting the Brewpi spark for the first time. When i click Device configuration i get "Error while receiving configuration: SyntaxError: JSON Parse error: Unexpected identifier “Couldn”

Anyone who can help how to solve this ?

The Brewpi is connected to the RPI and I have 1 sensor mounted to test.

2

And the error occurs with and without the Brewpi Spark connected through USB, so It must be on the Raspberry pi the problem is

3

Running the updater gives “Unable to receive version from controller” but that doesn’t explain the first error on the RPI

Ok. It seems like i solved it myself. I changed the USB cable and made an update. Now I have a working interface. I have attached two sensors, but they dont seem to be measuring anything and its on idle. I could really do with a “Brewpi for dummies” as I have no idea of what I am doing.
