Hello Mathias,

The -10000 error is a result of the controller returning a '?' to a command that was sent from the host controller. If a legal command is issued and no error is returned, the controller will always return a ':' character. In your case, the host program is sending down an unrecognized command and the controller is responding as it should.

In your VB example code, you'll want to look for any commands (issued using the GCommand() function). If any of these are invalid dmc commands, you'll want to edit them accordingly.
