Tim Fischer Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 What happens if you only plug each single unit in separately?-Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edough01 Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 I unplugged the first one completey and plugged in the cat 5 cable into the 2nd controller and it isnt found any suggestions where to go from here there must be something wrong with the second controller the only thing I changed on it from the beginning was the address to be different than the 1st one.

edough01 Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 This is my first time with LOR and they are both brand new 16 channels will be okay but 32 would be really cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoore60 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Ed,What Tim was getting at. In order for the change of address to take effect you have to cycle power to the controller after the switch is changed.You may also try a reset on the board. To reset, set the switches to 00 with the comm cable unplugged and plug the board in for like 10 seconds. Unplug and set to the desired address.Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
