Falcon Player (FPP) / FPP VS eero home network Stati...
Last post by R6Taz - Today at 04:13:20 PM
Hi Folks,

I just switched my home network to eero routers and am having a hell of a time trying to set a static IP on my FPP that I use on a RaspPi to run my Hinks controlers as a PROXIE server..   I understand there are challenges with FFP and I.P. addresses but it is way above my knowledge level..  I heard disabling USB tethering my stop the conflict etc .. I cannot change my home netowrk settings as i have way too many devices connected and run an office from home.. can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks Oh my eero network is 192.168.7.

I should mention I don't have access to the router or switch, so I am connecting directly. For simplicity, we can use the ethernet config: connecting directly to the computer, no router. (I have both wifi and ethernet setup on the same FPP/RPi).

FPP/RPi eth0:
192.168.0.100
Gateway: none (not allowed to have more than gateway)

Computer with ELM (Enttec LED Mapper):
192.168.0.50
Gateway: 192.168.0.1

Enttec ArtNet output, unable to change:
192.168.0.50
broadcast to 192.168.0.255

What's the next step?

Hi all, new to FPP so hello! (although very experienced with LED mapping and controllers). I'm using a bare RPi Zero 2 with FPP (i.e. direct to GPIO), connected by WiFi. I'm trying to get input LED data from ELM (and eventually record via ethernet, but that's another topic). 

First off, I assume that in Cape Config, I should use the PiHat setting as a kind of generic RPi choice, although the manual doesn't explicitly say that. 

I set Input to ArtNet, and Output to my string specs. FPP Testing mode of the pixel string works.

I am unable to get input from ELM however.

To send ArtNet or sACN from ELM, the WiFi adapter settings are 
10.105.44.69
"broadcast to 10.105.47.255"

My RPi has a static IP of 10.105.32.100.

There is no way to set the adapter IP in ELM manually, AFAIK.

What's the proper way to do this?

Thank you!

Did anyone ever get this working? I need to record data from any other LED mapper besides XLights, e.g. ELM, MadMapper, Madrix, etc.

Great start @DesignTagline. I checked out your convo with @dkulp on Github. Did you ever get this working? I'm trying to record from any (non-Xlights) LED mapper, e.g. ELM, MadMapper, etc.

I used some doorbell wire that was in my junk stash.  It was two wires, but I just connected one.  Don't overthink stuff.  In 20 years in this hobby the best and quickest way is often to "just try it".

Quote from: CWalters on June 24, 2025, 06:12:26 PM4. I read on some posts that having it with the controller (and the power supplies powering the controller) it introduces too much interference. Is this still a good way to push sound?
This usually only applies to the "high" powered FM transmitters that are cheaply built. The Si4713 does not fall into that category.

1) From an RF standpoint, it does not matter.  Insulated would be better to avoid any oopses.
2) Should not really matter.  Smaller (within reason) makes it easier to handle.
3) As reasonably straight as possible.
4) It's possible.  In my case the transmitter is about 5 feet from the nearest controller (an F4v3), and over 100 feet from the computer running the show.

Falcon Player Plugins / FM Transmitter – Si4713
Last post by CWalters - June 24, 2025, 06:12:26 PM
Just built my first K16A-B. I am "sort-a" new at this stuff, but been running a show off of a Lights and Sounds of Christmas for ~20 years. Anyway...I bought the FM transmitter when I purchased the build kit. It says to solder a 32" wire to the FM transmitter, but here are my questions...I hope someone out there can help:
1. should this be bare copper wire or insulated?
2. What gage? I assume small, like 22 AWG but I can't find a referrence
3. Where does the wire go? Does it stay in the enclosure or does it get wired outside the enclosure?
4. I read on some posts that having it with the controller (and the power supplies powering the controller) it introduces too much interference. Is this still a good way to push sound?

I am not trying to get too ambitious in my first year with the Kulp, but people are used to driving by my house and hearing the music with their windows down. My intent is to have a "tune to" sign and a couple speakers for those who are walking by (or just don't want to listen through their car radio).

Any and all guidance is greatly appreciated.
