Hello! I am working on a project with 2560 pixels running on Artnet over

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 8:12am

@Stef_Weicks yes indeed
did it work with Sams’s version ?
did at least the led turn red ?

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 8:25am

yes ! at the moment i did the DemoReelESP32 which is working perfect with my strip.

no there was nothing red and no blinking at all.

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 8:30am

@Stef_Weicks then in my code change the FastLed.add to
FastLED.addLeds<WS2811,2,GRB>(leds, NUM_LEDS)
comment
#define FASTLED_ALLOW_INTERRUPTS 0
#define INTERRUPT_THRESHOLD 1

and instead of FastLed.show()
FastLEDshowESP322();

@Yves_BAZIN AAAH … now it works!? it works with the Neopixel as well! It doesn´t like it if i gave a static IP to my controller …

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 9:06am

@Stef_Weicks
to sum up

all the 80*32 pixels are working
the arnet code is working too
is that true ?
if yes we could go to the next step and parallel output if you want 'cause now you have a refresh rate of 13fps and we could get to 65fps

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 9:14am

at the moment i am doing in jinx a setup for all 8032 pixel just a moment … but 3216 worked fine till now .
yes i did it over artnet! ok … please the more fps the better !!!

@Stef_Weicks artnetparalleloutput.ino · GitHub
here is the implementation for you panel
you need to use 5 pins (2,4,5,12,13)
#define PIN1 2
#define PIN2 4
#define PIN3 5
#define PIN4 12
#define PIN5 13
plug each pins every two panels
pin 2 to the panel 1
pin 4 to the panel 3
pin 5 to the panel 5
pin 12 to the panel 7
pin 13 to the panel 9

panel 1 ,2 … 10 are the same order as the one you plug them right now

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 9:34am

awesome! i´ll try it as fast as I can!

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 9:37am

@Stef_Weicks i would try first the non parallel output all the panel linked to the same pin and then the parallel output.
let me know it it works or if can be of any help.

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 1:08pm

ok the animation is grate!!! and really fast! there is only one issue … on the last panel (universe 15) i see 10 bright lighting leds!

@Stef_Weicks it’s like the last universe is not being pushed or is pushing white (you need 16 universes from 0 to 15=> 15*170 +10) have you checked your mapping on Jinx ?
try this

and let me know what you see in the serial output
just launch it and press the reset button of the esp so you can see the message

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 1:48pm

@Stef_Weicks aslo in the file Arnet.cpp in 'arduino/library/arnet/
line 152 you have
if(nbPixelsPerUniverse*(incomingUniverse)3+dmxDataLength<=nbPixels3)
before that line add
Serial.printf(“Universe:%d length:%d\n”,incomingUniverse,dmxDataLength);

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 2:04pm

hm … am I such a fool?
i can´t find the failure??

C:\Users\Studiolaptop\Documents\Arduino\libraries\Artnet/Artnet.h:169:14: error: ‘uint16_t Artnet::nbNeededUniverses’ is private

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 2:07pm

@Stef_Weicks it’s my fault sorry
this is a private property of my class so you can’t use it outside it !! i am the stupid one. delete that line and do the change in the artnet.cpp

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 2:27pm

@Stef_Weicks how come you have 17 universes set up in jinx
nomally you should see from
Universe: 0 length: 510 (170*3)

Universes: 14 length:510
Universe:15 length:30 (10*3)
and no universe 16
the size of universes 13 and 14 is strange but no bid deal
my program in order to avoid memory issues do no write if the length is too big. hence your last universe 15 is 510 instead of 30
do this change
artnet.begin(NUM_LEDS+510,UNIVERSE_SIZE);
it will work but something is odd with your mapping Ithink

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 2:33pm

@Stef_Weicks somewhere you have a universe 0 with a subnet 1

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 2:35pm

@Stef_Weicks
artnet.begin(NUM_LEDS+500,UNIVERSE_SIZE);
and not 510 sry

Stef_Weicks · August 7, 2018, 2:45pm

@Yves_BAZIN
jinx is counting universes from 0… the ID of it is 1

i tried it with artnet.begin(NUM_LEDS+500,UNIVERSE_SIZE);
-> display is black

Yves_BAZIN · August 7, 2018, 2:49pm

@Stef_Weicks you see the address is Subnet 0 -Universe 15 with ID 16 which is normal. what is received is subnet 0 and universe 15
Don’t you have a subnet 1 universe 0 defined somewhere ?
Are the 10 white wrong pixels gone ?
