| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems Perhaps Santa brought one of your neighbors a new toy, and it is generating a lot of electrical interference. For example, treadmills have caused this kind of problem for some people. -- Never underestimate the ability of a large organization to screw up | |

| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems If that is the case, then how does one go about tracking that problem down?
I fully understand what you are saying, I just find it odd that the down time (about 5:00 p.m.) for each day to be the same. I will know shortly if the back up and solid time (about 1:00 a.m.) holds true.
If they are using a treadmill that long, my god, they won't have to use it anymore after the first month... 
Thanks for the reply! | |

| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems nwrickert: Thanks for the links. Started reading the dimmers, electronic switches, etc... And it came to me. My outside garage lights and porch lights are on a dusk/dawn w/ motion detection. When the motion is picked up, the lights go from half brilliance to full brilliance.
I turned off all the outside lights, and viola, the connection issue went away... I'm just curious as to why this started happening now, after 1.5 years of service...
Now I need to figure out which set it is...
Connections' been rock solid now for 2 hours...
Thanks for the help!!! | |

| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems I'm just curious as to why this started happening now, after 1.5 years of service...Probably a defective component, perhaps a recent failure. Or maybe a failed ground is allowing increased amounts of interference into the wiring.
I'm glad you have identified the cause. -- Never underestimate the ability of a large organization to screw up | |

| Re: While I'm waiting for Direct to respond... Sync Problems Well I verified today that it is my outside garage lights... So, for now, they are shut off. I will have to find some new fixtures.
Shadow: Yes the lights have a photocell and also have a voltage regulator (they come on full bright when motion is detected, after a certain time, they go back to half brilliance w/o motion).
Thanks to everyone for your help!!! | |
