Hi everyone
I have been playing around with a couple of my diff receivers the last couple of nights and have encountered an issue I can’t seem to wrap my head around.
As soon as I power up the receiver the first 8 pixels light up. It is always the first 8 and they are always in the same order and colour, 1 blue, 6 white and 1 yellow. I am not running any sequence, it happens as soon as I power it up. I have tested this across a couple of receivers and have the same issue. I have also tried a couple of different Ethernet cables with no change.
When I do run a sequence on the tree it runs but those first 8 pixels remain the same and the rest of the sequence runs as though the channels are starting after the eighth pixel (if that makes sense).
What I have found is that if I power it down, disconnect the Ethernet cable and power it back up the issue is not there, it is only once I connect the Ethernet cable that the issue comes back so I suspect the issue is with the Ethernet connection.
A brief background on my setup, running a f16v3 with diff expansion board running to ‘dumb’ diff receivers (I also have smart receivers but haven’t tested them yet). The f16v3 and receivers are being powered from separate psu’s in separate enclosures.
Wondering if anyone has encountered similar issues?
