LarrySinNJ Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Received the rare message that a Firmware update was available for the Lighting Node Pro which controls four RGB fans and four lighting strips in my build. Downloaded and upon restart these components remain dark, even during boot before iCue loads. iCue does not show the Lighting Node Pro on the Home Page. How to re-enable? Suggestions?

LarrySinNJ Posted February 18, 2022 Author Share Posted February 18, 2022 PS - the RGB fans themselves are working (i.e. spinning), just not the lighting. Smells like a failed firmware update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Have you perhaps tried reconnecting USB while the system is running (to force USB re-initialization)? You can just pull out the USB connector on the LNP and re-plug it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, prompted to upgrade firmware for Lighting Node Pro, did it. and upon rebooting all 4 RGB fans and 4 lighting strips dead. Lighting Node Pro not showing in iCue Software. Fans spinning.

OK - so you reconnected the USB and the LNP showed up in iCUE? Is that how you got to upgrade the firmware? If so, reconnected USB reset the device. You probably aren't seeing the device in iCUE because the LNP is in bootloader mode. Reset again ... but don't go through the firmware update. If you do that, do you have RGB?

Lighting not changed. Upon reboot, lighting strips and RGB fans not lit. Fans spinning. LNP not showing up in iCue 4. Rebooted again, no change. Reconnected the USB, and the LNP still did not show up. Did a clean uninstall/reinstall of iCue (including deleting Corsair folders in \Program Files, \Program Files(x86), and Corsair folders in Registry. Still no sign of the LNP. Again, guessing a corrupted firmware upgrade toasted the LNP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Did you disconnect/reconnect the USB while it was going? As I mentioned, it sounds like it's still in bootloader mode. And that's also what happened before. IIRC, you need to disconnect and reconnect the USB while the system is running/powered. You mention reconnecting the USB but it's not clear that it was while the system was up. You can also use the pin hole to a) put into bootloader mode and then b) reset by disconnecting/reconnecting USB. It's fairly obvious that the firmware flash didn't work. But that rarely actually kills the device; there's just a bunch of non-intuitive rigamarole that you have to go through to get it back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I disconnected/reconnected with the power on and while in Windows. Not sure what you mean about a pinhole - is there a reset hole on the LNP? If not, what is the rigamarole you mention above? Thanks much for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevBiker Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 Yes, there is a pin hole on the top of the LNP. Hold that down and insert the USB cable. That should put it into bootloader mode. From there, remove the USB cable and then re-insert it. That's all from memory but I think that's right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct @DevBiker @LarrySinNJIf you need the firmware for the LNP let me know so I can get it to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apix Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Heya, I've been going through the exact problem and have tried all the solutions listed with no luck. My PC has two lighting node pros which one is wired to the LED strips and the other to the fans but on disconnecting both it seems that both nodes are in control of the LED strips somehow. Would it be possible to get the 10.3 firmware for the nodes please? Or any other older one. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've forwarded your ticket to a representative to assist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knutkj Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I had the same issue after upgrading firmware to version 0.10.4. It turned out that when I upgraded firmware, the settings was totally changed. Managed to get it working again by adjusting the settings: Lighting Setup: I specified that I have LL RGB Series Fan. I also set the amount to 3. Lighting Channel 1: Device controlled by scenes, and I kept it like that. Hardware Lighting Channel 1: This is the fan lighting during boot etc. Kept Rainbow Wave.
