Setup Controller - Alphapix 4

[Ecoca]

Hello All

Thank you in advance.
Info
94x46 matrix with 1200 pixels wired vertical starting top left
controller is Alphapix 4
output 1 - connected to 600 pixels .. 1-600
output 2 - connected to 600 pixels .. 601-1200

Power injected at every string/50

Issue is output 1 and output 2 are both displaying the same. Instead one big image.

Are your start address correct?

Are your start address correct?

Added a picture of xlight setup

it says start universe - 1

Just checked and all my outputs are putting out the same display

Output 2 says it starts on universe 4 channel 1. Is that what you have setup in xLights? 600 pixels on output one is going to take mare than 3 universes.

Let's see if we got this right. You have 1200 pixels in model. You started that at universe 1. You want to break them up over two outputs. That means you have 3600 channels / 512 = 7+ universes. So 8 universes in total makes sense.

In xLights, change the channels per universe to 512.

In the Alphapix, assign output 1 to universe 1 start 1, it will continue to universe 4 address 264.
Assign output 2 to universe 4 start 265.

Now about your zigzag...Did you zigzag in the model? If so, delete from the controller. In any case, 25 doesn't make much sense. Your zigzag needs to follow your wiring which should be 46 or 94.

Play with the tester in xLights and figure out which pixel is lighting which LED. If it doesn't make sense, go back and redo until it does.

Here's the node layout.
I couldnt find much info when running the lights vertical. I thought i had to use zig-zag since i ran them vertical and then there 24 in each column.
Me being eager i ran the lights before researching. really hate to re run them but i will if needed.
thank you again for the help its much appreciated .

You only set them up to zig zag one place and from your node layout it looks like you have it set in xLights. I would remove it from the controller settings. Can you show your model set up in xLights?
It looks like you have it set like this

Direction: Vertical
# Strings: 2
Nodes/String: 600
Strands/String: 25
Start Location: Upper Right
