Controller won't respond after installation of S5 software

[Big_Al]

I just upgraded my software from S3 to S5.  re-setup my controllers in the hardware utility and everything works fine when I turn my lights on and off with the Control Panel.  However if I exit out of the hardware utility the com LEDs in the controllers start blinking from solid on.  If I leave the hardware utility running the controllers will respond to the sequences while they are playing.  What am I doing wrong?

Sorry from S2 to S5

It is quite a bit different in s5.

Try looking at the help info http://www.lightorama.com/help/

A good place to start might be the Network Prefences and Comm Listener section near the bottom of the index list.

Also be sure everything is defined correctly in your preview.

Preview Props and Network Preferences MUST be set correctly, A bit more detail on the types of controllers you are trying to run would be helpful, even a bit more detail on NP setup.

You also may want to upgrade to Advanced or Pro for further functionality if you are thinking about pixels. S5 is a very different environment.
