I purchased one of Ray Wu's seed matrix. This will be controlled via an F48 1.02 and 1.03 smart receivers. I do have a matrix display based on P5 panels controlled by a BeagleBone Black. But I am not sure how to set up this matrix using an F48. Are there any instructions?

This matrix appears to be constructed using the 4 wire return data path seed nodes.  This means that all of the nodes are configured as a single long string.  It's really a matter of defining it properly in XLights.  The problem that you may have is the total number of nodes exceeding the total nodes per port that the F48 can output.  Just pick the port that you want to use and set it to the total number of nodes in the matrix.  If the total number exceeds the max that your F48 is capable of outputting, then you will need to modify the matrix which is not all that hard to do.  What size is the matrix and what version of the F48 are you using.

I ended up getting 10x 1mx1m (20 nodes x 20 nodes) matrixes. So now I will use 3 different smart receivers and use 10 of the 12 ports, with each receiver connected to one bank that I will configure for 400 pixels. 

My F48 is v1.02 and my differential boards are v1.03 and v1.04.
