Hydra 26hd parent and child different colors?

[RichtheReefer21]

Anyone able to explain ?

Left is parent, right is child..

Just finished this project DIY canopy and I've got different levels of blue and purple. Program is the same. And correct... did I lose some blue led's?

Is one HD and the other Non HD?
We're they purchased new or used?

I had that same problem. Mine was not as noticeable as yours though. My issue was one was the last gen before they came out with the new HD and the second was the HD model. I just adjusted and dealt with it.

Used but they were fine before the move. Exactly the same...

I didnt drop them or anything, and they are both HD's.

This made me go downstairs and look at mine again just to make sure....

Might be a pain but can you unconfigure them and make them both a stand alone but run the same program. You'd have to set both of them up run the same but maybe that will fix it

What’s the benefit to running them parent/child? I have mine setup separate, running the same program.

Ok thanks for advice...

Hitting the sack. Exhausted from the project this weekend.

Will try making them individual tomorrow after work... fingers crossed.

Curious to see the answers to the question you asked. I have mine set up as parent/child. I imagine once they are programmed there wouldn't be any difference?

So before I reset them... I turn them all off and individually adjusted the colors to see...

And to my dismay, the regular blue in the parent light on the right is not coming on when I turn it up, but the child light (left side) is operating normally.

Sigh...
