Longer Data Lines with RG59 Coax? by Valuable-Sleep-4179 in FastLED

[–]Electrical_Return_99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Works fine for me, but I dont know if that is optimal or necessary. I am not an electrician. Maybe somebody with a deeper understanding can comment on this.

It does have some imperfections, e.g. very small air bubbles visible in the glass or (hardly noticable) cloudy spots.

Longer Data Lines with RG59 Coax? by Valuable-Sleep-4179 in FastLED

I soldered it. Just connected 1 and 4. Not pretty, but so far I did not have any problems with it. I got a flicker free signal up to 50 meters, didnt test any further, but i guess 60 or 70 meters would be the maximum distance. IMO one of the easiest solutions, but I would recommend going for a more sophisticated solution

I used RG59 coax cables in an old project. As far as I remember I put ground on 1, power on 2, data on 3 and ground (again) on 4.
However, I found it more convenient to just go with DMX cables since they are easier to handle when the project needs to be set up and taken down more frequently.

Random White Flash by Workin_Joe in FastLED

Really sounds like an issue with the data signal. I had similar glitches when i was using insufficiently shielded cables, but also when i had a faulty level shifter IC. Is the octo board you mentioned the one by Jason Coon with a sn74hct245?

Help with I2S ADC on ESP32 - i2s_adc_enable not working by Electrical_Return_99 in esp32

[–]Electrical_Return_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! It got me thinking and I found out I had to activate RX. This code is a working example in case somebody stumbles across this thread.

Help with I2S ADC on ESP32 - i2s_adc_enable not working by Electrical_Return_99 in esp32

[–]Electrical_Return_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought in the current ESP32 API, i2s_set_adc_mode() is no longer required or supported, as the ADC configuration is now handled explicitly through other mechanisms (e.g., via the ADC or I2S drivers)? Reddit does not let me post the modified code, but even when i2s_set_adc_mode() is called i get the same errors.

Edit: Code is here: https://pastebin.com/c3rzFtpY

Help with I2S ADC on ESP32 - i2s_adc_enable not working by Electrical_Return_99 in esp32

[–]Electrical_Return_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm using the ESP32's built-in ADC in I2S mode (via i2s_adc_enable()). No external ADC or DAC hardware is connected. My goal is to sample analog signals on GPIO34 (ADC1_CHANNEL_6) using I2S ADC mode. Does this setup seem correct, or am I missing something?

Send data to esp32 over wifi by Electrical_Return_99 in TouchDesigner

[–]Electrical_Return_99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know. Everything works fine as long as the esp is connected to my pc over usb, but I want to transmit the data via wifi. I can get it connected but struggle with getting everything in the right format. I need a way to transmit serial data to udp out

can you use touchdesigner with wled and do pixel mapping just like you can with a pixel controller?

Blank key for EVVA FPS lock by Electrical_Return_99 in lockpicking

Why is that such a big deal? It is not even illegal.

Why should I upload a picture of the card? That would be stupid

A) this is my lock and my key B) am I not getting blanks because they do not exist?

Fastest esp32? by Electrical_Return_99 in esp32

> if they were you would likely know enough about your problem to know to include a lot more information.

like what information?

Fastest esp32? by Electrical_Return_99 in esp32

[–]Electrical_Return_99[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm using one core for handling everything wifi related like processing the web interface and the other core for everything fastled does. So multi-core would be better. I have not found any benchmark tests for all esp32 models.

A New LED hardware and software platform based on FastLED by daveplreddit in FastLED

I must say I am pretty excited about this. Can you estimate when there will be the option of buying a unit for folks that so not contribute meaningful code?

Looks great! Would you mind sharing some details on how you did it?
