Does this always need to be connected to wifi to run, or can I save a sequence onto the board?

I cannot flash my ESPArtStick... I keep getting the error "failed to program the ESP 8266. verify your device is propperly connected and in program mode".. It's a D1 Mini... I tried shorting GPIO0 to GND but that din't help either... I can upload sketches using the Arduino IDE so I know the board and cable are ok... Any ideas?

At 4:09 you go into "Final Testing" and then at 4:22 you state that "Everything is Working Fine" yet at no point in the video do you mention, or take the time to test the SD Card capability of the unit? Why was that.. seems like a major feature of the unit is totally omitted.
@puppy75052 жыл бұрын
The beta versions 4.x of the software now use the SD card. See this video as how to set up and run using FPP remote: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnOqdWt5rLCIgKs

any idea as to why the light on the espixelstick will not stay on? mine only blinks 3 times
@MattPenner2 жыл бұрын
I had the same issue when I first plugged it into my laptop. I was using an old USB cable. I read some of the mini USB cables only support charging, they literally are missing the pins or wires to transmit data. Not sure if that was mine (it looked normal) but I found another newer one I had lying around. When I used the newer cable the light only blinked 3 times again but I heard the Windows chime that it was connected. I didn't get the driver setup dialog but I did see the device now showing up at COM3 in my Device Manager. Maybe Windows 10 automatically installs it now when you preload the drivers. I did the install just like the video. After the firmware was flashed and the device restarted the light is now on and solid. I wonder if in the video he is using a device he had already previously flashed so it was already set to go and had a solid light.

I followed this verbatim, get to flash tool, enter my SSID, passphrase, add a host name the assigned com port and do upload, it says completed, but at the bottom has the following Connecting to networkname as pixeltest Connecting with DHCP.............................. *** Failed to connect *** *** Timeout - Reverting to default SSID *** Connecting to ENTER_SSID_HERE as pixeltest Connecting with DHCP.............................. *** Failed to connect *** *** FAILED TO ASSOCIATE WITH AP, REBOOTING *** any ideas?!? Thanks!

I flashed mine then switched to wled instead. I then couldn't get it to work with xlights so I went back to espixelstick firmware. It still didn't work, so I reinstalled wled and now it won't be discovered by the app. Any ides what I did wrong.

Am looking into various options for controlling pixels and this video was super helpful, thank you so much! How reliable and stable do you find the WiFi chip when sending sACN? I'm guessing it does not support 5GHz Wifi? I'm looking to integrate these into dancers' costumes with a Wireless Access Point side of stage but have concerns about dropping frames and gaining a reliable connection with something so small

Just curious when you let Xlights discover it why did it assign it as ddp? I thought espixelstick were e1.31 type controllers? Thanks.😊

I don't have an answer because it does the same to me, yet they work just fine. Some say e1.31 and others DDP. I have 14 units.

The Pi does not react to music. You use Xlights or another sequencing software to sequence the lights to your music and then push the sequence file out to the picap to play

Thanks you, I was looking for REST API for smartthings. I Run a Node-RED Instance to perform all my automation. My Smartthings hub was not connected. With your explanation, I was able to perform list and status. When it comes to executing commands, i left with no clue. for any sensible combination of values returned by the other calls didn't work (return 422). Any clue, how to trigger a switch? I appreciate your help. Thanks again.

Thank you. Helped a lot. But it stops for me to understand how to POST a "on" command to a switch..... I tried a bit, to me it looks like I should put the commands in body, so I filled in: key:value: component:main, capability:switch,command:on also tried with "" anyone who understand what I`m doing wrong?
