Ice Trackball and LED Wiz
(1/1)
bent98:
Anyone tell me how to hook up Ice trackball with led wiz. There is a ribbon cable that has 4 wires one for R one for G one for B and one 5v.

I hooked up Red to a port on LED WIZ and tried to configure in LEDBLinky no dice. Do I need to hok up 5v? I mean doesnt the trackball get the 5V from LED WIZ Board?

robC:
Yes, you need to hook the 5V part of the ribbon cable to the 5V output on the LEDWiz, then you would nornally use 3 ports on the LEDWiz for each of the R,G, and B leads of the ribbon cable. Just to test, you can use the control panel app from GGG.

Hope this helps,
Rob

Kinda dumb its a stranded wire and not a solid core. Can you put R G B all in same port for LEDWIZ?
