Something has gone haywire...
Came home yesterday, lights were off figured it had to do something with the RTC since it already had failed 2 times before so didn’t bother with it i had to reset the controller using the reset button on the controller arduino.
Fitted the RTC as mentioned above and left it for what it was.
Came home today and only the white was on at full blast when it should only be at 12** other channels were off, wierd things happend when swapping light modes.
On one of the modes violet was fully on and on another everything went off while it shouldn’t be off.
Got the controller to reset properly by saving the time and date settings and now the PWM responds properly.
In regards to the lights, the PWM command wire from the controller to the LDD’s runs separate from any AC lines
As for the DC lines they run more or less separate from the PWM wire
Btw if I do recall correctly the PWM is handled by a PCA chip which is also on the I2C?
Since the arduino I’m using is a Chinese knock-off could it be that the arduino is the cause of it? If so how do I make sure it is?
