    PixelSticks and WLED (DIG QUAD)

    You can add WLED as a controller in xLights, On windows you can use xScheduler on your computer but many people prefer to use something called FPP which is on a Raspberry Pi to manage the show playing as it's a dedicated device.

    Baldrick 8 Port Pixel Controller in xlights unable to program

    I need to make this clearer that the board can't be plugged into a computer (unless it has a DCHP server).. @Lanas kids lights if you can plug it into the router that comes with your internet, it should work then. if not let us know and we can work it out

    Baldrick 8 wont update

    You can plug directly into the router, have a go this week and if not we can jump on zoom and try and work through the problem :)

    How to connect seeds to controller

    Hey Danny, Seeds are a PITA (I've just pigtailed about 12 sets of them today for my show) I recommend using the white solder seals to pigtails and then putting them on your xConnect to the controllers.. I won't advise on power injection since I refuse to do that in my show and I just stick to...

    Falcon Controller v5 No output of lights

    Oh hang on, this is a Falcon v5 with eFuses so I think you have to enable them on each port, can you load up the web UI and take a look at that.

    Falcon Controller v5 No output of lights

    Okay so I'd take a look pushing in those connections in that Phoenix connector a bit more.. https://share.cleanshot.com/7cB6rdj9 Looks like that ground could be a little loose. Other than that, try a different port and then try a different pixel string and then finally try a different pigtail...
