    Angry DDR tile disappeared in fusion

    I checked this morning and noticed that the DDR is missing but the DOS is still visible. Any thoughts or how I can get it back? I rebooted and checked to see if it got moved to the hidden tiles.

    Thank you in advance.

    Check the connection of the optical sensors into the DOS. Without the sensors plugged in, the tile will not show up.

    This situation can indicate that one of your optical sensors has gone bad, and the DOS therefore no longer recognizes that a DDR is attached, and so disables the DDR display. These optical sensors fail frequently, requiring replacement.

    Gone bad? It’s only two weeks old. Is this common?

    It's not rare, if you go by the number of people who have mentioned the problem on this forum. Although usually it takes more than 2 weeks. I had one go bad after 3 months, and another after 5 months. Of course that might not be the reason you can't see the DDR in your particular case, but it is a common cause.

    Mine "went bad" at the same time that I plugged in a third DOS. Is that also a coincidence?

    More than likely. The reason tiles dissapear is because there is a sensing circuit that detects a voltage drop across one of the IR LED in the optical sensors, which activates the tile when it's in the correct range. If the connector gets disconnected or that LED fails the tile disappears. I really wish that the tile just appeared by default and just gave a disconnected message if nothing was plugged in or the optical sensor failed.

    You might be an engineer if...You have no life and can prove it mathematically.
