    Can't get my nECG-DP2 to connect to my 2811 pixels

    Kane - I thought I tried that (swapped the outputs and swapped the pixels) and still couldn't get it to work. I even swapped out the controller with no luck. I was on hour 3 of troubleshooting so I probably wasn't thinking straight at that point and had a setting off or something. Thanks for the...

    Can't get my nECG-DP2 to connect to my 2811 pixels

    Did some more trouble shooting and started cutting my solder joints and found a bad connection. False alarm on the controller being the issue, thanks for your help guys!

    Can't get my nECG-DP2 to connect to my 2811 pixels

    Just got the nECG-DP2 in the mail today. Output 1 is connected to my old 2801 pixels that are on the right half of the matrix, they are working fine. Output 2 is connected to my 2811 pixels on the left hand of the matrix. For the life of me, I cannot get Output 2/2811 pixels to work properly...

    How do you make a null pixel? (yes, I read the manual)

    I can't get my null pixel to work for anything. My string is 100 of the 2801 pixels. Screenshots:

    FIXED: Test pattern not working on universes 4-6, 9 11 & 12

    It was an LOR issue. I found out when I unplugged the controller from the computer, the test pattern worked fine. I didn't have all of the universes setup in Network Preferences, so the Comm Listener was interfering with the universes 4-6, 9 11 & 12.

    FIXED: Test pattern not working on universes 4-6, 9 11 & 12

    I am hooking the same 2811 strip up to all 12 universes with the test pattern running, and the pattern doesn't work on 4-6, 9 11 & 12 universes, but works fine on the remaining universes. As you can see, the settings are identical for each universe...

    Wall washing lights

    I started this "how to" page last summer, but never completed it. It does have all the images & links to the parts I used: http://www.huntersvillechristmaslights.com/color-washing-with-RGB-LED-strips.html Attached are two views of how the strips run parallel.

    Wall washing lights

    I used strips for my color washing: http://huntersvillechristmaslights.com/ They are 60/m and I doubled them up (ran two side-by-side). I used dumb strips, and if I had to do it over, would use smart strips, as 2811 strips are fairly inexpensive.

    RGB Strips as wash lights?

    They are dumb. If I had to do it over, I would have made it smart, but this was before the P12R and 2811.

    The test pattern is stuck - ISSUE SOLVED

    Its stuck on the test pattern - all of the dip switches are down, and I have reset it several times. The lights never go off, once it boots up, it goes right into the test pattern

    Video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QEE2qRPXIg You can see the power of the strips within the first 45sec.

    RGB Strips as wash lights?

    I also used 60/M strips from Ray for my washing, except I doubled them up. I think it turned out great:
