Hello. This year is my first attempt at making a Christmas show.
I have purchased a Falcon F16v4 controller, 1500 seed pixels, a LED beam and a snow machine.
I am programming it with xlights and everything is fine until I tried to use the DMX protocol.
I am not able to make any DMX device work. I am taking the DMX signal through port 3 with an rj45 connector that I made following the coding that appears in the manual.
I am doing something wrong and I cannot find the solution.
When I enter the Falcon test page and select DMX, the lights that are connected to port 1 turn on. But not all of them.
I am attaching screenshots of my configuration.
Thanks

F16v4 only has a single DMX output. The other two 8p8c connectors next to it are for differential receivers.
Ensure that is only connected you the third socket from the top labelled DMX/LOR, not to either of the Rcvr ports.

Can you show the screenshot of your visualiser in xLights?
