Problem with SSA
Posted: 15 October 2026, 19:59
Hello,
I have a problem with my SSA interface.
The problem is this: When I connect the SSA to my computer it works fine. When I turn the DMX toggle on, without having something connected it's fine too. When I connect my PARs, and don't have them powered, everything is fine too. Once I finally power on all of the PARs, my computer is responding great anymore. The touchpad is also lagging like crazy and registring different kind of things like a click, or a sweep that I didn't do on the touchpad. Once I disconnect the USB cable from the PC or turn off the DMX toggle in the editor or live mode, the PC is totally fine again.
Do you might now if something is going on or could a component be broken?
The weird part is also that it still works fine till I connect a third PAR and more. I can validate that it isn't the PAR itself, cause I also checked that.
Another weird thing also is that when everything is connected and turned on and I disconnect the power of the PARs first, I can also see that the LCD screen on the back is flashing even though there isn't power and it stays like that till either the USB or DMX is disconnected.
To me it's a strange thing and can't seem to figure out what it is. The only thing I can think of is the board at this point or the interface itself.
I'm happy to hear from you guys!
