I am in the finally stages of wiring my control panel and, while I have spent 3 hours looking around the GGG website and here, I am still confused. I am sure the solution is very easy but here are my questions:
1) I have four LED Wiz's... each has about 8 RGB LEDs (24 slots) connected to it (out of the possible 32) for a total of 32 Electric ICE buttons plus the U-Trak LEDs for teh whole control panel. I have two powered 7 Port USB hubs in the control panel. I will be connecting 4 U360s, 1 TurboTwist2 Spinner, 1 U-Trak trackball, and 1 IPAC. Can I also connect the 4 LED WIZ's to the powered USB ports or do I have to bring the dedicated 5V supply from my computer?
2) If I have to bring in the dedicated supply, can I use one wire from the computer and have it run to all four LED Wiz boards? Do I still connect the USB so I can program them? - it appears that some people don't have them connected by USB???
3) Just to make sure I am correct... each RGB drive (the LED board) has four wires. The red ones all go to the "ground" on the LED Wiz board (I will use a Euro block to connect all of them) and the the remaining three wires from each cable goes into one slot each (1-3 for example) on the LED Wiz. Aside from bringing in the power cable (5V) to the LED Wiz, is there anything else I would need to do?
I apologize for what may seem to be asking questions about stuff that may have already been asked but I am very confused about the difference between amps, volts, etc etc and I would like to obviously do this well so I don't destroy my equipment or burn down my house! All of the warnings have me freaked out!
Thanks for you anticipated help!
