I setup the display to fade off without clock or screen saver checked but it is not fading off,need to do something else?
Hi Johnrc, all the settings in the screensaver box haven't been added yet however you can still have it fade to off if on the same page you deselect the option to use the photocell and then you can have the screen dim 100% after X seconds following last touch of screen.

The parameters on the left hand side of the screen still don’t update until you leave the home page and return to it. When I start the controller they stay on N/A until I go to another page. When I return they read the current temps etc. still trying to confirm if they are updating once they initially display. The atlas circuits still are not functioning. The controller locks up on startup and will not load until the circuit is disconnected and controller is restarted. I also noticed in the ATO there is no evidence of a backup float available.
I just confirmed that the parameters on the left hand side of the screen are not updating at all except for the initial reading. Additionally screen will not fade to off at all. Stays on at full brightness all of the time.
Those temps not updating on the home page is a real surprise, I have a feeling only you are experiencing this, I've never seen it. I'm guessing you have date/time on the display, the plug under clock is green and you probably have a health meter. When the controller sends data it first sends that info then all the sensor data. The equipment connected screen from hardware menu is what decides which data comes, I'm thinking something isn't in sync with that screen and controller, try the following.
Go to hardware and equipment connected, then touch every option 3 times so it cycles and disabled/enabled and then set how you want. Then press save and the controller and display should restart. After it restarts everything should be there, if not try power down the controller/display and turn back on.
When you say no evidence of backup float I'm guessing you referring to on the display? There never has been a reference to it as it's not tied into the Arduino or code, it'll still work if Arduino died. Without the backup float closed no power can get to the pump. So there is no way for the controller to know if it's open or closed. Also the backup float only works if you are using the DC pump port on controller, if you use AC outlet backup doesn't nothing, you have to instead use a backup with custom rules.
Also I sent everyone who has had issues with Atlas circuits more sketches to upload. I managed to get my PH circuit working and I'm getting numbers on the display. I made a small change but not much, I hope it works for you all. Make sure you connect the same way and wire, etc... when you had them running on v4.2. If it still locks up and its possible without too much trouble try connected only one circuit at a time. Shouldn't make a difference though as if one is read they should all be read. Also open the serial monitor on controller and after 20 seconds you'll start seeing reading. If it's locked check if the "eeprom should read 50" actually shows 50.
