LEDWIZ wiring question
pfabbro:
Hey guys,
I got a LEDWIZ's and I just wanted to know when I hook up my RGB led's how do i hook up the sixth RGB led? I have 5 RGB leds hooked up to ports
1-15. Do i start the next RGB led on port 16 then run the other wires to 17 & 18 and keep going? or Can I just wire the sixth RGB led on ports 17, 18 & 19?
If I power up my RGB leds with the 5v rail from power supply how should I wire it? or will the LEDWIZ provide enough power?
What do you guys think?

Start the next one at 16, go to 17 and 18. Will make the programming a bit easier.
I didn't add any external power, and I had no problems loading all the ports on the LEDWIZ with RGB's.
mgb:
according to the led wiz install sheet: you can have upto 32 ports of leds with proper resistors (which are already built into the ggg rgb leds) with just getting power from your usb. You will only need to externally power it if you will be using bulbs or more than the 32 outputs.
the unit should come shipped with the jumper wires set from usb 5+ to the the +5 bank terminals so your default should be for usb power.

Thanks guys for your responses.
Here's another question.. If I have more then one LEDWIZ should I plan ahead on which RGB leds are grouped together on each LEDWIZ?

Yes.
I basically had 1 LEDWIZ per player.
