Problem configuring Xlights and F16V3

[Karl Lovink]

Hellp,

I am having problems configuring Xlights.
My configuration consists of:
2x ICICLES
4x LED strings
1x Megatree with 8 strings with each 2 strands (one is going up and one is going down. They are interconnected in the top of the tree)

Everything is divided into universes. I did this because I also use the sacn python library and the Lights Master app.

The Falcon F16V3 output config looks like this:

The Falcon F16V3 E131/Artnet config looks like this:


How should I configure the Controller and Layout tabs in Xlights?
Have tried all sorts of things but can't figure it out.

Thanks,
Karl

With that kind of manual config, I think you will likely have to manually config xlights models. On the model, look over the options for controller and choose "use start channel". Then click into the start channel and when you get the popup, set the IP, universe and start channel for that model. Repeat for each prop. There might be other options that would work for you but one of the xLights/F16 experts would have to chime in.

What is the problem exactly? This is how I configure everything. You'll need to create a start channel for each model. Simply click on the model and on start channel enter the uni:channel. For example port 1 would be #1:1 edit- port 7 on Mega tree up and down both universe 7, mega1d needs to be changed to universe 8

Thanks so far. Now I configured Xlights (Controllers and Layout tab).

I fixed the error: "edit- port 7 on Mega tree up and down both universe 7, mega1d needs to be changed to universe 8"

Controllers tab:


I configured individual sizes. So the correct size for every universe. The manual stated that this was not recommended however.

Layout tab:


Any remarks? Improvements?

Cheers,
Karl
