ebrown1972 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 (edited) How many networks are you running? I had the exact same issue last year. When I tried testing my ccp's one of the strings would blink and the color was off. I was running three networks last year but when testing the ccp's I only had one USB adapter plugged into my computer. For whatever reason when I plugged in my other two adapters during testing of the ccp's they then worked perfectly. I never understood why the ccp's would not work correctly unless all adapters were being used but it fixed the issue. It's worth a try. Also the second string would test fine until I tried playing the sequence then the second string would blink and the colors would be way off.

I have it connected alone in my garage trying to figure this out! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dl20415 Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Right now I have 2 controllers, one on each string, set to normal mode with 2 different ids and it works perfectly, no blinking! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During testing and running a sequence I would only have the ccp's connected. They did the exact same thing you are describing. Only until I plugged my other adapters into the usb ports would my ccp's work correctly while playing the sequence. If you are running more than 1 network try plugging in the other adapters. You will not need to plug the adapters to any other controllers. Just have them plugged in. It sounds crazy I know but it worked for me and nobody else could tell me why I was having the issue.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Ok, so it works this way, when you run two strings on one controller in dual normal mode are you using two ID's? You will have to have two ID's if this is a 100 ct string in dual normal mode. SPaschall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk When you say not connected does that mean your networks are not defined in your sequences yet? If you have other networks defined in the sequences then attach all of your USB adapters and hook up your CCB and try playing a sequence and see if it makes any difference. If it does not I am sorry I wasted your time but it's the same problem I had last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
