Spider IV connection problem with FBV

I recently plugged my amp into my computer through my FBV express MKII to download some tones. Shortly after i had unplugged the pedal from my computer, the control function of the pedal stopped working, and then the amp made crackling noises whenever the pedal was plugged in. I then just disconnected the pedal from the amplifier only to find that no matter what tone i was on, there was an obnoxious buzz, the distortions sounded wierd, and the amp just sounds wierd overall. I called support and the man said to try and reinstall the flash memory for the amp; however, I cannot find the amplifier in my devices. I believe the connection between the Amp and pedal is messed up.
Did Monkey recognize your amp plugged into it before?
Check the CAT5 jacks on the pedal and amp for bent pins, also try another cable.
Did you try a factory reset of the amp (hold the 'A' button in while turning the power on and hold it for 5-8 seconds)?
Hi,
+1, the first thing I would try is a different Cat 5 Cable.
If that does not work try a reset on the amp.
If you are still have issues then I would recommend taking both units to a service center to get checked out:
