Eucon 3 - have to reinstall each time to make it work.
 

Every day, I have to re install Eucon 3 to make it work. This happens whether I open PT 10.3.6 or 11. Both Artist and Mix units show in "My Surfaces" but no connection. Also I have to add "My Workstation" again and "Attach" in the Eucon settings but nothing works after that either until I re install the main program. Then it will works until I reboot.

There is a sort of half connection where I see some stuff on the Artist LCD but no controls work at all, until as I say, re install then suddenly it springs into life. I am on a Mac Pro with OX 10.8.4. I have deleted Eucon preferences several times.

You mean after each Mac bootup, or while PT is running?

My Artist Control is recogniced by Eucon but doesn't speak with PT at all. OSX 10.7.5

Well, if I boot up (and Eucon loads automatically) then open PT (10 or 11) the Artist Control and Mix only half connect. I see some buttons on the screen but no response with the faders, nor play/stop etc. So then still while PT is open, I re install Eucon 3 and when it is done everything bursts into life.

It all stays good until I have to boot up again ie the next day. Then I go through the process as above all over again.

I do this every time, I've even looked in preferences to see if anything there changes but nothing does.

At least it works but it's a pain to have to keep installing the program. crazy!

I've been seeing a lot of posts about EUCON 3 not working with PT 11 and 10.3.6. And the lack of response from Avid has me a little concnered, especially since I'm in the market for a controller.

The Eucon potential is pretty much wasted due to a definitive lack of vision (or lack of investment) and the fragility of the Ethernet connection protocol.

I've had my consoles (2 mix, control and transport - so much money) for almost 2 years now and I am NOT satisfied. I thought the relatively cheap casing (cracking aluminum and plastic sides/faders) would be compensated by the programming features of Eucon (and the potential for frequent updates). Not a single features we asked for was added besides the fader noise reduction (which didn't work on one of my units), there has been very few updates, bugs are months if not years to get fixed and they are always late on compatibility patches.

If I were you I would try to find something robust that has made it's proof from a company that has better customer support.

Yep - exact same thing - OSX10.8.4 - PT11.0.1 HD OMNI + TB box.
FWIW: My controllers are plugged into a netgear switch and then to an Apple Thunderbolt Display Ethernet port. Worked fine on EUCON 2.7.x

Well inexplicably after 2 weeks of always having to reinstall Eucon 3 it's come right. I don't know why.Something somewhere finally got the message. Edit: 2 days later...no it's not..still random. Works then doesn't. Aaargh.

Hey everyone - we are investigating this issue and have a few leads but as this is a very intermittent issue and hard to reproduce consistently we could use your help with some details:

Here is another item to quickly try and let us know if it works:

If you get into a bad connectivity state, please try the following:
-Go to System Preferences > EUCON and press Stop (make sure Pro Tools or other EUCON DAWs are not running)
- wait 30seconds and press Start.
- Once the Surfaces are attached in EuControl, check that the local Workstation is available in the Workstations tab, and it is Attached.
- Launch Pro Tools (or other EUCON DAW).

Does the system connect and work with Pro Tools after these steps?

Reinstall every day? More like every 5 hours for me. I have an MC mix running on Logic 9.1.8.

This is totally BS.
