Dual network, not sending to Net 1

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   Okay, last year's D-LIght rs485 walked away, so we have two new V3 RS485 adapters, they were found as Com 4 and Com 5. I set Com 4 to Net 1 and Com 5 to Net 2.
The D-Light hardware utility sees each network/com port with and can detect the controllers, all tests work as expected though the hardware utility. 

So, then I fired up Aurora to get the cob webs out of the machine/cable/etc. I went to start the sho and only network 2 did anything.
I checked the breakers, good.
I checked HW Util, good.
I tried the sequence again, only net 2.
I removed/readded the networks, only data on net 2.
I chaned com 4 to com 6, and updated Aurora, still only net 2.
I tried swaping the USB ports, only net 2.

Somehow, after cables, networks, coms, changing everything I got data on BOTH net and net2, I let Aurora run the full sone, and set it to loop.
When the song restarted after ending with both networks working, I only had net 2 again???

What's going on?

Edit...

It would be usefull if I gave a bit on other info, wouldn't it?
I'm on Windows 2003
Both adapters are D-Light V3.
RS485 driver is the existing one from last year.
Aurora v1.0.69
Logged in ad admin.
Last year's Aruora was .41?, I did an uninstall, then reboot, then install.
Hardware util is 2.4.1

Edit again...

So at the end of the last test, I shut everything down. Then I though... hum... I wonder if it just needed one more reboot.
Well, The intro ran the first time correctlty, then when it looped again, I only had net 2!

What the frig?
