Replication among max for live devices?

I've got a weird situation.

I've built a max for live device that receives 10 separate streams of OSC data, each stream has its own port. You can use a drop down menu on the max for live device to choose which User (ip/port combo) you will be receiving data from and which User you will be sending data to. the system involved has 21 components 10 senders (heart rate monitors), 1 central computer with Max for Live, and 10 Receivers (LED strips hooked up to a microcontroller). The device I built allows me to select a user, take in all the incoming data from that user, process it, and send it out to the associated led strip. This device also allows me to control RGB/CHSV/a number of other functions on the micro controller that I currently have selected. This device works fine, but only if 1 instance is running, the problem I have is I need 10 instances running.

Example of current situation: Lets say track 1 has 1 user set up with the master device, he's dialed in, so I make a new track, place the master device on the new track, and select user 2, user 1's device is now broken, it'll brake in a number of different ways, (ex: user 1 now starts taking in user 2's data or vise versa, or everybody just shuts down). but the point is it breaks.

If i keep the device on one track and cycle through users I can control everybody fine, and, as a measure for testing I made 10 separate max for live devices, each with the user ip/ports statically typed and placed them on 10 separate tracks and it works fine, but this is redundant and I'd like to have one master device.

I think the problem is with max, the way that it instances multiple devices that all stem from a master device. I'm not sure how it handles variable replication in this setting and can't find any documentation explaining what's going on behind the scenes.

I've attached the master patch that allows you to select the user you'd like to control.

I tried to give as much context to the system as I can without being this being a really long paragraph, if your confused on anything I apologize please comment and I will clarify:

Quick context: This system will run in a meditation setting 10 people will be hooked up to HRM (Heart Rate Monitors), and each person has a corresponding led, I will have the led's doing a "pulse" animation every the person heart beats, I handle my beat detection in max for live, and I also have a variety of controls for the LED's also (RGB/CHSV/etc), the max device can also run some other functions on the board that allow me to get debug info, reset the board, etc. I'll be playing live while people are all hooked up into the system. but the current problem is that the device will only work if there is one instance, multiple instances of the devices cause the system to break, most likely due to the way max handles variable replication for devices that propagate from a master device.

Thank you for your time.
