Welcome Sam, Where in Melbourne, there are a few of us around the Melbourne area, but definitely start with the links djgra79 just posted.

oh boy, This came up in my facebook feed the other day, I too started 10 years ago with 32 channels of LOR, I cringed when I watched it.....these were my first ever videos! View: https://vimeo.com/17718350 View: https://vimeo.com/17718538 View: https://vimeo.com/17790654 View...

If you can attend, it will be well worth it! Talk to people in person who can demonstrate a few things

have you read the ACL 101 manual, there are several examples in there....it'll help you understand how long a run you can do, and if you need longer what you need to do to make it happen, power injection for power, null pixels to extend data runs, using receivers to get ports and power closer to...

falcon group buy see the following thread! But it is for Australia/NZ only https://auschristmaslighting.com/threads/falcon-f16v3-f48-e1-31-pixel-controller-2020-interest-thread.11963/page-4#post-106530

It's not as scary as you think, I was the same when I first started and was very paranoid about electricity out in the open, it was all 240V running through the yard with extension cords etc trying to weatherproof connections was a bit nerve wrecking, now everything apart from the PSU's being...

definitely a bug of some kind, have managed to do a test sequence and getting all correct colours

it's been a while since I have played with this DMX controller, so I just realised that the modules were connected to output 9 (ch25-27), so I put it on output 1 (ch1-3) and Red is not showing at all, however when I run the DMX on board test mode, by having dip switch 10 on and nothing else, Red...

Hi All, So yesterday I powered up for the first time my F16V3 and all went great, it powered up, I connected network cable and it got an ip address of 192.168.0.20 so I typed this into the browser and got the web page up and was able to see all the settings. Firmware 2.0x Not having any pixels...

that's roughly correct for 100% brightness, but you can reduce down to 30% and still look good giving you further runs before injection, I would hook all 1024 nodes up and inject at beginning and end, then identify your dark spots, inject in the middle then middle again etc until it looks how...

no real standard, it's all personal preference, and depends on a lot of things, for example how dense you want it to look and how far your audience will be viewing it from

You can't buy direct from Falcon without organising a 3rd party receiver in the US to reship to Australia, Falcon do not ship to Australia

depends on your layout, my layout is reasonably small, and an f16v3 will be plenty for my needs, however I will be using at least 3 receivers to get ports closer to props and to increase outputs rather than have 1 string of 800, I can split it up into 4 strings of 200 for example

haven't considered my 2020 layout but will probably be interested in some smart receivers

Interesting...I'm sure someone can 3d print a clip for that too
