Anyone with the Nicrew HyperReef 100 Gen 2? I have two lights connected via USB-Cable and they won't sync with each other or run the pre set program. The control is connected and I have done a controller factory reset

You have to go into dashboard and select the program you want to use. It seems to default to manual. Also when you make changes, you have to save and go to dashboard to choose which program to use.

Sounds like USB cable or connections. Make sure they are fully seated.

You could try plugging controller into 2nd light to verify board is good but my guess is the USB connection/cable.

Strange. Serial data should pass through.

Only other thing to try is plug controller into all USB ports to make sure one is not bad.

May have to contact Nicrew
