Hi,
I am running 2 x Pixlite 16 Controllers.
Controller 2 - Pixlite 16 / V 3.6
Controller 3 - Pixlite 16 / M II / V 1.1
When in Test Mode , Controller 2 has the "All Outputs " line Ghosted out.
Controller 3 is OK
Can someone explain.
Sorry about photo. My screenshot not working.

PixLite 16 (MK1) is an older board design that lacks some features of the MK2. I would guess that test mode on the MK1 PixLite 16 always outputs to all 16 outputs and the individual output toggle is limited to MK2.

I have a mixture of PixLite 16 MK1 and MK2 and have not had a need for individual output control while testing in the Advatek Assistant. Testing all 16 outputs simultaneously still helps to verify whether the correct IC type, pixel count and colour order have been configured for the connected pixels. If I need more finer control over what pixels are tested then I tend to fire up xLights instead. By the way, xLights can manage the controller configuration for PixLite boards (and other supported board brands) should that interest you.
 
Thankyou, you were quite right.
It has not affected the testing performance.
I just was concerned there may be a fault in the board.
