htebault Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 In building out the 12 CCR tree this year, I had the plesasure to turn on all for the first time, using the new high speed USB controller - It all works! I then found the latest hardware utility has a wonderful feature that allows me to update the firmware of each of the 12 CCR controllers one at a time - excellent feature, thank you.In running a series of programmed songs, it appears the 12 CCR on Aux-A network were working well wiht no apparent delays - Is there any utility that might be available to evaluate the traffic loading ? The show this year will have the 12CCR tree on on high speed circuit, and three regular controllers on a single standard USB circuit.
DLTSLC Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 Curious - were you able to update the firmware of your CCRs without manually plugging each one into the computer? I have my setup ready to run the show, 4 CCRs, 2 16-channel 1602 3rd gen controllers, and a 16-channel DC board. - ALL need firmware updates, but I REALLY don't want to have to unplug all of them and do them individually!!!

There is a drop down window with all the controllers listed, just select which one you want to update and away you go.
DLTSLC Posted September 28, 2013 Posted September 28, 2013 I just finished updating all the firmware for everything :D Is there anywhere that specifies what the changes are in the CCR behavior from version to version ?
ajfelice Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 HTEBAULT, Are you running all 12 CCR's on one network? I remember someone saying that it should be to networks. Maybe the 500K controller allows for this?
DLTSLC Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 I have 2 networks; one with 5 CCRs another with 4. The other night I switched the network speed and the entire show kinda stopped midway through a song and then picked back up. Not sure what the deal with that was! I'm about to go live this weekend and am kinda worried !!
