Caleb Linburg Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 Hello, I have a pixcon16 running 8 ports at 5v and 8 ports at 12v. On the 5 volt side, I have 9 elements. To solve the issue of not having enough ports, I connected the end of the first string to the beginning of the next, and injected power in-between. Even though I did this, only the first string lights. I have set the sequence editor to control 170 pixels on every port and just turn them on white. Everything else turns on except for the one I have daisy chained. If I put the second one in first place, it will light by itself. I am thinking that I must be missing something simple, but have checked connections and plugging and unplugging a ton of wires to try different things, but I can't get it. I also had tried with the pixel editor and had the same results. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Linburg Posted November 21, 2015 Author Share Posted November 21, 2015 (edited) I was able to correct my issue, it was the Pixcon was set to 50 bulbs per port. I had it set for 170 in the pixel editor and sequence editor, but the setting needed changed in the pixcon itself.

EmmienLightFan Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 I made that mistake with my Pixlite 4 at Halloween. I spent probably an hour and thought I had a defective RGB strip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
