You know this thread is over a decade old and was referencing Arena 4, and we're now on 7. ;)
It looks like the apc40 is just playing around with lights until an application actually grabs the hardware and makes a handshake to take over the led feedback control. Did you program your controller in Arena 7 to have certain elements give led feedback?

Sweet! Glad you got it sorted <3

I'd just make a new post, or people will think your problem lies with Arena 4 ;)
