Why are you running LOR software at the same time as xSchedule ... that is not going to end well if both are trying to access the hardware.

Sorry Keith, its lor hardware controller with xlights. I have a mixture in this particular display..
and I have it set-up where all the 16chnl lor controllers are on there own network.
There is a mixture of lor legacy, lor ccb, and a bunch of diy falcon controlled fixtures.
but what shut down on us is just the lor 16chnl ac controllers network comm port.
tried 2 other comm ports, and they would start out good, till I ran xschedule, then they go red in the scheduler, and I'd loose communication with them

Right because only one program at a time can access a comm port. xSchedule shows a comm port in green status if it is able to open it. If it cant open it it is either because it doesnt exist (plug in your dongle) or some other program has it open (such as a LOR program). Looking at those crashes your issue is the latter.
