Hi,

I have been struggling with ZCPP and Falcon F16v3 (v2.59) and different brightness per model in one controller channel.

If I just drag and drop models in the visualiser, all with the same brightness, everything works OK, and The Falcon portal shows all 600 pixels in channel 11 (this is my case):

But, if I try to change the brightness of half of the models in a single channel, the xLights visualiser shows a new line, but only the first line of models is lit by the controller. In the controller is still only one line, with half of the models. The other half does not lit nor shows in the portal.

Now there are 230 pixels (90+50+90) in the line of channel 11, but shouldn't be another line in channel 11 with the other 370 pixels?

The status page of the controller looks like the controller is only receiving data for the first half of models:

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

I reply to myself. After a while I have investigated the problem again, and it seems to be in the configuration of the controller: "Support virtual strings" needs to be selected:

Now, when I select a different brightness for one element, it is recognised by the Falcon:

So problem solved!

Glad you solved the problem. Where is the option to use "support v s"?
