I have two lighting nodes linked to a Commander Pro. The Commander Pro connects via a USB header on the motherboard. All fans function properly and display RGB. In iCue, I only see the Commander Pro but not the Lighting Nodes, which prevents me from adjusting the colour scheme. Sometimes I receive a Windows message indicating that a USB device wasn't recognized, as shown in the Device Manager. Any suggestions?

Since I'm using 8 fans, I've done some research. The problem seems to be that the motherboard doesn't support the Commander Pro USB pass-through feature. I think using a dedicated powered USB hub might help resolve this.

Get 2nd Commander Pro?
With this model, you can divide your fans equally between two Commander Pro controllers.
Well, yes. As shown in the picture, Corsair hasn't designed their hardware to allow full expansion of what Commander Pro can do.

Corrected it! Required to supply power to the node cores individually using a powered USB hub.
