Hello, so I have a snowflakes that's I've wired up from GE. I had to do some soldering to get my 112 nodes. My question is why does one of the lights stay somewhat lit even after I've turned off the sequence or test mode off on my F16v3? It doesn't turn off until I unplug the lights from the controller.

make sure your controller is set to always send data, doesn't always send a proper off signal without that.
Where do you set that on the controller.. I have both falcons and FPP...

Is that what the "Blank" checkbox is on the RHS on the output strings tab in the falcons is for?

I end up replacing the pixel on the snowflake and seems to have addressed the problem. I'm thinking that perhaps my heat shrink solder tubing somehow didn't make a good connect when I initially build the snowflake.
