mattera68 Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I keep losing comm with controller #1, its the first one hit with the cat5's. I go to the utility and refresh but #2 comes up.Some of the lights are staying on and I cant turn them off. I can unplug the feed and it regains comm. this has only started after I moved the power jumper to 240v, is the other jumper suppose to stay on normal operation?

Don Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 A few questions come to mind...Where are you located? (Which would probably answer the next question...)Why are you running 240V?Are you using a serial or USB to adapter coming out of the computer?

USB adapterNO, keep all jumpers at 110V, that is why you are losing the comm port. The voltage to the transformer is 1/2 the value needed to keep the voltage regulators stable.
