Title: Matrix Setup Question
Post by: IndianaChristmas on March 06, 2019, 02:26:24 PM
I recently purchased and want to use a Falcon V48 to run a matrix I have.

The matrix is a 25x25 node matrix.  I  previously set this up as a vertical matrix with a single string and 25 strands.  I had this controlled by 5 pixel net pipe bomb controllers, each programmed to the correct starting channel count.

With the V48 setup I was hoping to run this with a 4 port receiver.  I want to use 2 strings of 208 nodes and one string of 209 nodes.  Is there a way to define a matrix model using strings of different numbers of nodes?
 
I can still use my previous method and then go to the V48 define each port there but I was hoping I could do all the work in Xlights and update the V48 with the info.

Thanks.

Define it as one string but you will have to manually configure the controller.

On a 24x50 matrix, would i do the same?
# String 1
nodes/string 1200
Strands/strings 24

Just try it...then right-click the model in Layout and show the node layout.  If it matches what you have wired then its right.
