MikeH Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Some time ago, earlier this year or late last year, someone here announced there was going to be a webcast of some sort to help us new RGB people out in understanding how this works. It was also mentioned that one could buy an RGB kit from DIYLedExpress that could be used during this instruction. I ordered the kit right away, I finally received the kit several months later. I have been trying to locate the thread that mentioned this, but have not been able to locate it. Does anyone know if this webcast was archived somewhere? I sure would like to know more about DMX & RGB. MikeH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zman Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Not sure about any online tutorial, except to say that Aussy Christmas Lighthing has had some. Let me suggest some reading material for you to peruse. It is an excellent reference document that describes, DMX & RGB. http://auschristmasl...8.html#msg17038 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sysco Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Mike H maybe this is the one your are looking at at http://www1.lightora...aining-classes/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LightsinMaine Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I don't remember the kits ever being mentioned on LOR forums. But the intro to RGB FB group was where this originated. Check there and I know there are instructions on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spomalley Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Could've been the Online Mini Conference. I know that Sean's weekly Nutcracker live tutorial originated from these but I don't know if the originals by gigogigg have been on lately. Maybe search for them, I know there was a thread that had the videos from each live conference.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeH Posted August 31, 2013 Author Share Posted August 31, 2013 Many thanks to all who have provided the many links to tutorials, these will be very useful for me. But what I have here is a kit with no instructions. There is a power supply, an ICB with dip switches and connections for wires, 6 pixels on a short string and an Ethernet cable. How do I hook all this up? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisquit476 Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Best bet would be to contact the folks you bought it from, DIYLedExpress, they should be able to give instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when I contacted the ULTIMATE he did not know about the sequencing tutorial for the smart pixels.John (oldandslow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
