simply does not work #559

Richiegot commented 1 year ago

Installed the libary on my arduino, connected a total of 256 LEDs, and in the setup wizard it does not work at all, no leds turn on. They do the RGB flash when i turn on the arduino, but they do not turn on at all when i run the configuration wizard. please help!

Eddit: i run windows 10 And i have selected matching com ports as well as baud rates Also the light on the arduino does flash -i guess its indicating it is trying to send out commands to the led. but led no worky also none of the modes work. screen grabbing. mood light. etc. LED stays dark

I think you need to change the port. You can check your port. ls /dev/tty.*

On windows it will be one of the COM ports, not tty which is Linux. You've compiled and loaded the lightpack or adalight arduino code on your arduino? which sketch did you use and can you validate the attached LED type is in fact working?
