Terpsmurf Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I have awoke on 2 occassions this week to my lights flickering randomly on multiple controllers. The first night at 2:00 am I just unplugged and killed the power to the first controller that connects to the computer/ I plugged back in the next afternoon and the flickering had stopped. However, again last night it started. This time I left the controller plugged in and disconnected the data feed to the controller. Again the flickering stopped. This is only happening to my units on the LOR network. The PixCon on the E1.31 is not flickering and suffering the same problem. I will again plug back in this evening when I get home from work to see what it is doing. Has anyone experienced the same problem, and can you point me in a direction to narrow down my culprit to resolve. I've never had this issue until this year. The only new addition to my show is a Pixie 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrant Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Are these controllers on the same network? Do you run some type of cleanup sequence at the end of your show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I had this happen with a poor (cr*p) Quality CAT5. Also, do not run your CAT5 tight against your power cords for more than a couple feet And Terminate the last controller for better noise immunity (Gen 2 Pixies have a jumper to do this so you do not need to build one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
