Episode#26 Custom Virtual Pinball Cabinet Build
In this video I will be showing you how to test all of your addressable led strips and led matrixes before you start cutting them up and installing them into your pinball cabinet. Whoops! The leds won't light up? Was it my soldering, Was it my install? Is it my DOF set up? You won't know unless you test them first! Plus if it's bad, you can return them for a full refund. This will also be used to test the full string of leds going into the entire cabinet once all of them are installed in the cabinet. Just change the number of leds in the sketch to the total number in your cabinet and upload! Neat!
I will show you how to solder up your Teensyduino and your octo shield together, how to wire up your test lead from a rj45 cat 6 cable and a jst connector, how to download and install the required Arduino software, install the teensy loader program, and how to set up/adjust/upload the sketch to test your leds strips/matrixes. This stuff seems crazy hard but is actually pretty simple once you have a walkthrough like this. Fear not! I got you!
