Pinky, are you pondering what I am pondering?

 

I think so, Brain, but this time, you put the trousers on the chimp.

I'm sorry that I missed this,  would have loved to have a board.  If you ever make any more boards let me know.

They are all going out tomorrow (except John's; he will pick it up Wednesday).  I also tossed in a few inches of 100nf caps since I have a reel of them...  I updated the BOM on my web page with Digikey part numbers for everything but the LEDs; they are from Futurlec.

None of the resistors or cap values are critical; you can use parts on hand if you have them.

Mike:

Board arrived today. I ordered the LEDs from Futurelec just now and will do the Digi-Key order later tonight.

Just curious if any one else is interested in getting a device like this.  I know that I have drooled over it in R.J.'s videos, and as my display gets bigger, or I want to see if I am getting DMX out of my SS Hub, i think a device like this would be handy!!!

Yep, I'd be interested I posted a hint, hint comment on FireMedic4Christ post.  I think that maybe a poll could get started and see where it goes.  Maybe if there is enough interest it might go somewhere but n1ist is pretty busy right now with another coop.

I also would be interested in one, it would be invaluable for testing. Now if we could get a RGB matrix display to test pixel net channels on...

I think software would be an ideal way to display this.  Just pop open a window and have it display the information ... then I would think you should an entire pixelnet universe.  I think you can already do with with LSP perhaps, by creating a big 4096 pixelnet controller and then drawing it out as a big matrix in the visualizer.  I think a standalone utility would be better.

The problem with having a software display is you are not seeing the true data stream being sent out to the hardware. Unless of course you had another dongle that received the data stream and used that information to drive the display window.
