Closed Falcon F16v2 E1.31 pixel controller Buy 2015 #2 - CLOSED

[Habbosrus]

Wow, even I surprised myself - Blinking Lights in under an hour - setup at work running over my normal network and figured out how to make a sequence, connect to F16v2 via network and program channels, upload sequence to the falcon player, set a trigger to fire a script, script runs sequence on one string. Result - flashing blinking lights.

Hi Richie,
What did you use as a setup guide ? I have seen 2 -3 videos from Alan Dahl , that I need to find again.
May set it up this weekend as a backup.

Hey Gerry, Alan's video's are on the FPP Wiki page here http://falconchristmas.com/wiki/F16V2
I found them yesterday.

Mostly watched the videos about setting up the Pi, I mainly want to be able to trigger a video to play for Halloween so have been concentrating on getting that working, and since my order came in from ray Wu I started playing with the pixel controller and have been happy at how easy it was.


What I can't find a lot of detail on is writing scripts for events, I have just used a very basic one that calls up a playlist when a trigger is received,

Thanks Daryl, mine arrived at work this week, but after tearing my hamstring and being off all week I had to wait till today to get my hands on it. Up and running, works great.

Hi All,

I would recommend updating your firmware on the controller prior to your shows starting. There are numerous bugs that have been fixed since I shipped the controllers (especially in relation to colour mixing)

Best keep your eye on http://falconchristmas.com/forum/index.php/board,52.0.html

and

Note, you need windows & a usb cable to update the firmware at the moment.
