I found that initializing Victors (doesn't matter if they are really there or not) solved my problem. The DB37 cable apparently needs to send more power and this is only possible by creating more "sensors" in the DSC
But before you do that, do your lights change color? Green when it sees nothing and orange and yellow when it does?
