Hi
I have setup a Raspberry Pi 2, with the Rpi-28d+ on top. I have FPP installed on the Pi and I tried to get it setup as per some guides / youtube videos, but they were slightly different as the software looks a bit different now. I have a 100 pixel ray wu string plugged into the first (middle ?) ws2811 port on the 28d+.
I now cant for the life of me get the pixels to do what theyre told. First problem, I managed to get the first 20-24 pixels to light up randomly, but they would change around. Then (I think) I managed to get the rest of the pixels to light up, but the first 20ish were still doing their own thing.
Ive now changed so many settings and the pixels do light up, but they just go through a random range of lighting up however they want.
Ive tried running a test sequence on FPP on its own, test sequences from xlights (through bridge mode), i made my own 100 pixel straight line sequence on xlights, uploaded it to FPP and ran it, none of these actually control the pixels.
Ill upload some screenshots shortly, but this has got me stumped.
Thanks
Ken
