Default Pro Tools, HUI, and Command 8

The other day I took my Command 8 into the studio and connected it to the HDX system hoping my colleague could use it to work the cue feeds using flip mode.

But we have a gadget attached to the studio computer which makes the studio red light follow Pro Tools' record status, which uses the HUI protocol. When I tried to configure the Command 8 I got a message saying there was another controller which wasn't compatible with Command 8.

I could only connect the Command 8 if I disconnected the red light gadget. Is this because you can't have more than one 'controller' on a system? Or is it just Command 8 won't co-exist with other controllers?

They were both using unique ports and both were connected with USB.
