Hey all, struggling with my first saber. I’ve got a NPXL V4 Hiltside Pixel Connector and two Neopixel Accent LED Single Pixels for a Crystal Chamber. I followed this wiring diagram from the generator:
and used this config;
firstone.h (4.4 KB)
This has the Pixel Connector work correctly, but nothing from the Crystal Chamber’s accent LEDs. I asked a friend about it and he recommended removing the wire from D1 to Data1 and changing the config to this;
timsaber.h (2.8 KB)
no change, it looks like. The Pixel Connector still lights up without D1, but the accent lights are still inactive.
I’ve torn it apart and checked the wiring twice, nothing is getting bridged where it shouldn’t and I’m following the data direction in/out line on the accent LEDs correctly so I’m assuming this is a config issue, any advice? Cheers!
Edit: welp I finally thought to whip out the multimeter and I lose continuity in the data line at the first accent LED. That seems like a problem! All the solder points are good and I have continuity either side so the break is the LED itself.
