Hey Dan, I'm based out of Geelong and work in entertainment lighting. It's my first year of pixels this year, but the ACL community especially have been incredibly helpful. I'm more than happy to help out and offer any advice that I can, whilst still learning myself. Feel free to shoot me a PM...

I can't do a factory reset, as that requires that side of the board to be powered unfortunately. Network port does not flash, it just seems that there is no power on that side of the board, power leds don't light up either. I tried an external 5v power supply (the one i'm using on my f48...

Is that the T2 thing in between the switch and the v2 input?

Yeah made sure it was on both V2 and 5v and ext power and 5v respectively. Tryed both inputs.

It's sitting on a piece of foam in between the static bag also. Also did work with a wrist strap.

I've checked it with a 5v Power supply and ran a meter over the power supplies to make sure they are both 12 and 5v respectively. Which pcb is this? i'm quite new to this, so how would i go about removing and reseating? Apologies for the noob questions, my circuitry knowledge is quite primitive...

Hey Guys, I've just recently purchased an F16v3, two expansion boards, An F48, and 4 Smart receivers. My F16V3 will not boot, no matter what I do. Connected 12v too the V2 input. All modes selected correctly (12v v2 input) When I power up, all the fuses light up along the bottom green, but the...

I'm just going to power inject every second string, just trying to find a distro board now.

150 per run. Because the base is in the run as well. 2 inch spacing. I'm doing 12v Pixels also. Would I be able to do 600 per port just power injecting at either end? Sorry my knowledge of power injection is kinda primitive. So i just figured it was a cheap way of keeping it simple. I have too...

Thanks @Gee Family Light Show Looking through advatek. I really really really like the long range controller. More so than the F48 - mainly because of the 4 universes of DMX that it outputs as well as being virtually the same in every other aspect. The only thing I find is the expansion boards...

I sure will keep everyone updated. Everyone in this community has been amazing so far. So definitely something I want to stay apart of. A new idea has birthed this morning as well. A few close associates of mine have just purchased a serious amount of broadcast/streaming equipment to help their...

Hey David That's really cool, I suppose to be expected when you think about it, but didn't know if i'd come across anyone here. The more i'm learning on xLights the more impressive it is in some ways. I spent in excess of $85000 on my MA 3 Full and couldn't even control half the parameters that...

@Mark_M Yeah that was what I was thinking. However, after pricing up pixelators (enttec product which we would commonly use in the industry) it's just a little too far out of my budget this year. I figured I'd buy the industry standard controller at the time of the job if it arose. After a day...

I sure am, yet again, have an amazing deal with BOC because we use them year round. The tl;dr of this is that Corona destroying the entertainment industry has left me with wayyyyy wayyyy wayyy too much time on my hands. The other side of it also, is if I spend a couple of thousand, and pick up...

Hi Daryl, I'm new here to Auschristmas in the last few days. Is there any chance I would be able to add onto this order or is all closed off for this this year? Happy to use a shipping forwarder if it is, just thought i'd double check. I'd be after: 1 x F16v3 2 x F16v3 Expansion Board with...
