Hi All,
Just starting out with my first-pixel project (delayed from last year). I currently have 10 strands of 50 pixels (will arrange in a 180deg ), making a half cone about 2.6-3m high, each strand is connected to a HE123 with beaglebone FPP connected to it. AFAIK the HE123 has 16 channels. I plan to connect each of the 10 strands to individual channels, via 3 in cabling form the strand to the little green input connectors on the HE123.
The FPP and HE123 is located in the garage so weatherproof. Plan was to just run 2-3m cabling from the garage box (under the garage door) to each strand.
Couple of questions:
1. Does this make sense and able to be done ? I'm not sure on how xlights then connects and knows about the 10 strands ...
2. Will this be enough power ? ( I have 1 x meanwell powersupply connected via the HE123)
Any Advice would be great.
TIA Jarrod.
