Running Aether II in Manual Mode
« on: June 02, 2022, »
I have 6 Aether II's that I'm running in manual mode. 4 of them output white, 1 with a lite purple hue and 1 is more purple than white. What would cause the purpling color effect?

Take a close look at your connections to the LED and make sure that all the wires are connected to the correct positions.  Make sure that the LED is mounted correctly and that you are not leaking current to the mounting plate.  Also take a close look at the board for clean connections and no bridges on the drivers.
If at first you don't succeed,

Thank you for the response.

I will take a look at what you suggested.

The weird thing is these were working for the last 7 plus years for the Christmas shows. 2 years ago they become off season landscape lights and have been running fine but stop communicating to a FPP with PiHat. This is when I put them in manual mode.
