[QUOTE="Whitey-, post: 134314, member: 39146"] From this point, I decided we really needed to be running the actual intended software to continue. I had bought everything a bit fuzzy on the software, fairly confident I could work it out as I went, but now I really wanted the ability to control and test as I went. [ATTACH type="full" width="497px"]24204[/ATTACH] I built a simple circuit out of an ESP32, a LM3940 LDO to drop down to 3.3v, and a breadboard. It works pretty well, and I had full control via my laptop or phone to light 'em up! Happy evening! On Monday, it was time to solder this thing out - I didn't really want to be running a show off a breadboard. An hour of frustrating mistakes later (I'm awful at soldering), I had something functional [ATTACH type="full" width="331px"]24205[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full" width="332px"]24206[/ATTACH] I started actually building some props at this stage, but realised I'd likely want multiple data signals pretty quickly, and potentially for some longer runs. I played with a few concepts (had some 4 core alarm cable around), but ended up settling on ethernet, as I have kilometres of it at home and it's rated for 48V power normally for POE. Again a quick test solder and all worked fine [ATTACH type="full" width="445px"]24207[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
