Let's Control It

Hi there, me too with NeoPixel !
I didn't resist and bout the entire 241-led disk (see photo) I connected them in the correct order and got basic Neopixel work.
Now, the strange thing.
After i send the "on" command to first LED with (as an example):

http://192.168.1.163/control?cmd=neopixel,1,0,0,100

I can't switch it off anymore it, whatever command I send.
It looks like the green led is always ON.
Has somebody got same problem ?
I already tried to change the ring, and got same behaviour.
Thx for help.....

Have you set the correct Strip Type? (RGB / RGBW)
And can you set a 5th parameter to 0 in the command?
As you can see, there is a 5th parameter used to set the color and maybe that one slips through to the next LED.

Hello TDer,
I did some more testing, and:
- no visible difference between RGB and RGBW
- led 1 is locked to 100% green
- if I power off the disc, led 1 stays off until first command
- If I issue something like:
http://192.168.1.163/control?cmd=neopixel,1,0,0,0,0,0,0
with some more zeroes,
I get no error, but can't switch off led 1
Thanx in advance for yr help.....

Solved !
I used the same pin for wifi status led and Neopixel output !
Thanx TDer for support !

p.s. I'm also checking neopixel clock (plugin070) and it's running fine for now....

Great to see it now works.

And just out of curiosity, do you have a link (or links) to these rings?
Is it one set or did you just combine all available ring radius boards?

The 241 LED version

Thanks

Yes, that's it ! I chose black background.

Just an addition:
i combined BASIC Neopixel AND Neopixel CLOCK plugins, so I can lit up a static pattern (starting at led 61, for example the center LED) AND HMS leds on the outer ring.....
Next step could be fun to have faces/emoji on the disk....
But we need an emoji "painter" and a "block transfer" plugin....

Pictures or it's just talk

Sounds really interesting!

This is a (ugly) picture of the idea: happy, sad, etc.....
I made it with a (long) sequence of commands like this:

curl http://192.168.1.163/control?cmd=neopixel,124,100,100,0
....
....


but we need something more "human"

Hehe, looks good

....and this is the "sad" one....

Hi ... could you show me your code where you set same pin for Wifi Status Led and neopixel, I facing same issue when internet is enable, if I disable internet the issue with first led disappears

Hi, it's not code, but the configuration of LEDs in Espeasy LED page configurations.
You have to deactivate LEDs status on the pin used for neopixel.
