Usage with Arduino Mega #253
Comments
Never seen this before. Are you sure you're using a ws2812 strip? Feel like
what you're describing might be a different strip type

Hello all,
unfortunately I can't switch LEDs with the Arduino Mega at the moment.
I use NodePixel in combination with J5, when I output the Strip object I
get the following hint:
Strip { dep_warning: { stripLength: false, gammaValue: false } }
Strangely enough it works after the third request, but the LED then also
switches in the wrong color (red instead of white) and with the wrong
number of LEDs.
My source code looks like this:
const strip = new pixel.Strip({
data: port,
length: 128,
color_order: pixel.COLOR_ORDER.GRB,
board: board,
controller: "FIRMATA"
});
console.log(strip);
strip.on("ready", () => {
console.log("Strip rdy!");
strip.color([255, 255, 255]);
strip.show();
});
I am looking forward to your feedback.
Many greetings
Malte

Yes exactly, enclosed are the technical specifications: Product Name: WS2812B LED Pixel Strip Many greetings Malte |
Hmm interesting
Do you have another Arduino to hand, one that isn't a mega (eg uno or
something)?
Am just trying to isolate where the issue may be coming from. I don't have
a mega close by for a couple of days to test against.

Unfortunately I have no other Arduino model available here at the moment. Can it possibly be because I have not yet adjusted the length of the LED strip and this is still 5 meters long and contains 300 pixels, which are connected together? Many greetings Malte |
that shouldn't really impact it - if you set the length to 128 then the way
the strip and code works it will just use the first 128 of the 300 pixels...
Just out of interest - how are you powering those 300 LEDs?
