I am able to run a sequence directly from XLights and it is able to control my LOR controllers through a LOR network using a LOR dongle.  When I run the sequence from xSchedule the LOR controllers will only work when I start and stop the sequence 3 times.  This the only sequence in this playlist.  I tried deleting the playlist and recreating it.  There are no issues identified in check sequence for both XLights and Xschedule.  Both XLights and Xschedule are using the same show directory.  I am curently running 6 Falcon controllers using ZCPP, 1 LOR network (from dongle) and 1 DMX network (from dongle).

 I'm working to move the LOR and DMX network to the serial output ports on the Falcon controllers but I have an issue with the DMX data being scrambled.  It's doing the same thing on 2 controllers.  I configured the ports using ZCPP.   I'm sending these channels from Xlights but it appears that that the controllers are seeing the following channels:

1 > no output
2 > 1
3 > 2
4 > 3
5 > 4
6 > 5
7 > 6
8 > 13
9 > 14
10 > 15
11 > 10
12 > 11
13 > 12
14 > 7
15 > 8

   Any suggestions?  Thanks

Try .57. There are some serial/zcpp fixes in this release.

When xschedule drops the connection. Do you have logs.

There is no obvious reason why it would work differently to xlights.

The problem with the serial output ports is resolved.  Please note that after I loaded .57 I had to put the controller in E131 mode, change the serial output start address from 2 to 1 and put it back into ZCPP mode to get it to work.  Thanks
