Xlights Setup / Re: long distance cable...not work..

« on: September 25, 2017, 07:24:34 PM »

thank you guys for the interest to help me, the new firmware version for the E-682 card in the output configuration has the option to adjust the timing, originally it is programmed to 150ns and it was very low, I uploaded it to 300ns and now works perfect even the lights are brighter.

Xlights Setup / long distance cable...not work..

« on: September 24, 2017, 12:48:47 PM »

I have a problem that makes me very curious, maybe for those who have a lot of experience this problem may not be anything, but there are many people who are just starting out like me, that's why we ask for help. my star has 270 pixels and I have divided it into two outputs of 135 pixels each, as the star goes over my mega tree, I have to connect a cable about 10 feet to get to the controller,  here is the problem , when connect the cable of 10 fts does not work, only two pixels are lit but if I put a small cable, works well the whole star, maybe it has to do with null pixels or something is wrong, same happens with arch, in the picture is the star the outside side with cable of 10 fts and the interiors with a small cable, all this happened since I upgrade the firmware in the controller E-682 San devices. Thank you for helping everyone.

Gil and Jimmy I have fixed the problem the way you explained to me, 4_1 is working well with the arch, 4_2 is working well with window 1, and 4-3 is working well with window 2. as the controller is configured with 136 pixels and the windows only use 44 pixels, I do not know if I'm wrong but I lose 88 pixels in each port, right ?? so if I change to a single line of 136 pixel , will this work? and I will not lose channels

thanks for taking some time in your things to help, but tell me how to add more channels to the same port to fill it before going to the next port? can i do a chain of windows with power injection of course?  thanks, I hope in the future to learn everything, so do not bother you with so many question. lol

Thanks for helping me, Gil I do not have a saved sequence, just created an animation to try, Jimmy is correct 4-1 is connected the arch (works well), 4-2 is connected to window 1 (also works well), and 4-3 is connected to window 2, but it no longer works, 4-4 does not work either, I tested  with x_lights and all 16 ports work, also perform the test with the controller(E682) and all ports has signals. as I am only testing, everything is connected near the controller there is no distance between one window and another.

First I want to thank for the help, something is wrong that I can not find it. I have an E682 controller and configure it in unicast mode with 12 universes to 510 channels per universe give me a total of 6120 channels, of which I use 4176 for matrix 1 use 12 controller outputs I had 4 more outputs left. and then I use 1 output(#13)  for the arches to channel 4584, also try to connect the windows with the rest of the channels that remain and only works a single window until channel 4728, after that no longer works, when I test with x-lights work all 16 outputs in the controller, but When I put a sequence, it does not work anymore, that happened with the remaining 1400 channels??.
