While connecting and disconnecting things, I notice that when the computer is connected through the USB, I have a light on on the top of each fixture. When I disconnect the USB there are no lights on the fixture at all. Both power supplies are showing that they are on.

It must have been some sort of a reboot issue. I did numerous power off scenarios and ended up unplugging everything after going through the device info screen. The power source line stated that it was USB only and when I unplugged USB's there were no lights (power indicator ) on the fixtures at all, even if they were still plugged into power source. After 1/2 hour I turned them back on with just the ballasts and everything fired back up.
I can't be certain but I suspect that there was something in the firmware upload that needed to reboot.
Very stressful when you just get a fresh shipment of nice SPS and your lights go out.
