Customers buying new freeze dryers will also need to purchase the Wi-Fi Upgrade Kit.

checking on WiFi enabling. My version is 5.1.24.
Does this mean I need to update software to 5.4, or does this mean my machine is too old and does not have the hardware needed to be compatible?

To get your older freeze drier wifi compatible, you need to order a new usb card and screen. I have a 2019 that got the new card and screen and it runs the 5.4 software, so I bought the new wifi dongle.

Thank you for reaching out. The software version is in the top right corner of the home screen on your freeze dryer.

Interesting upgrade.

What about privacy?

I don’t want you polling my machine or hosting most of the app functions in the cloud.

So all of the recipes and functions reside on my phone or on my dongle?

Thanks.

Does it have it’s own built in wifi? My freeze dryer is in a building that does not have wifi. Our home wifi does not reach.

If you get the wifi device it will need to connect to the wifi at your home. Some people will purchase wifi extenders that could help with this.

(last post was a typo)
Is there anything special about the USB-WiFi dongle? I have other USB-WiFi adapters, could one of them work in my dryer?

The WiFi USB dongle is specific for Harvest Right Freeze Dryers. This makes the pairing and setup easy. Any other WiFi adapter probably won’t work, because the machine will not recognize it.

I have 2 Home Freeze Dryers a small V5.4 and a medium V5.5 are my Home Freeze Dryers the same as the Home Pro Freeze Dryer? I just don’t want to purchase 2 wifi devices if they wont work.

I like the new features offered in the update such as improved candy mode, save recipes in the app, but I don’t have wifi access for my freeze dryer. Will I be able to have access to these features?

I don’t have wifi available, are the upgrades available without the Dongle and wifi, or are the upgrades built into the dongle/ USB?

since my software version is 5.0.16 do you offer new displays that are running the newer software that we can swap out to get a display that supports the wifi version of the software?
if the board for the display is the only issue since the software features are the same in the different versions wouldn’t this be an option for us to upgrade to wifi?

When you receive the wifi dogle does it have the v.6 on it or where do find it on the website to up grade? Mine is compatiable

You have to upgrade your control board and display. Harvest Right calls it their USB and Screen upgrade. It costs about $150 for the upgrade, then you can run the latest software and us the USB Wifi Adapter.

Is there a hardware upgrade I could do first to allow the software update for wifi? Spent $$$ buying a large stainless a few years ago that runs v5.0.13.

Is there a Windows version of the app I can use on my desktop computer? A phone’s screen is small. And as I’m on the desktop a lot, I’d like to use it to check my freeze dryers.

How does the WiFi dongle connect – where is the usb port found? I have the pro small FD and do not see a usb connector port

This is the part number and description of what I ordered for mine: [Kit-CTS/USB] Capacitive Kit- USB & Touchscreen
