I do not have this problem on the laptop that I use to run the the lightsThe main computer has never been hooked up to the controllers or run a show only the laptop. On the main computer I get the message.Shows cannot be enabled because of an error. Open of serial port has failed.Error.(8002) Open of serial port has failed.Error.(8002) Com port error.While: open Com/params bared=57600parity=ndata=8stops=1 x on= off dts=off=offidsr=offWhile: open Com/params bared=57600parity=ndata=8stops=1 x on= off dts=off=offidsr=offTrace: Init Light-O-Rama post/LOR ChannelOEverything seems to run fine. If I unload Lor and click on Conrol panel to start/open up menu the error message doesn't appear. It only appears if I restart the computer.Is this something to worry or fix or is it because I have never hooked up a controller to the main computer.Thanks in Advance and Have a Safe St. Pats.Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
