LEDs not lighting

Good morning all. I'm completely out of ideas and hope someone can help. I have the following:

KulpLights F-8B with Beaglebone Black
12v 30amp power supply
WS2811 string lights with xconnectors

Background: LEDs were working fine before updating FPP to the latest update. After running the update I woke up to the lights being all on and the BBB/OLED being off and the BBB outputs no longer registered that I had an F-8B or any LED strings attached. I redid my power supply, reseated the BBB and OLED (which both work now), and redid all my XLights communications. FPP now sees my lights, has all my outputs, even registers the correct F-8B controller and version.

FPP is in standalone mode, connected via a network cable, BBB strings are enabled, power output is 12v.

Went to the test enable mode in FPP. No lights. All wiring is plugged in and terminals are connected.

Nothing is having the lights come on and it is quite frustrating. Please help.

Did you try pressing one of the buttons on the F8 to wake up the display?

So you were able to get into the web interface of FPP and the strings were no longer configured?

How about a screenshot of your BBB Strings page?
If to err is human, I am more human than most people.

I did try to press the buttons to wake up the BBB, it wasn't working. It is working now though.

I am able to get into the web interface of FPP. The strings were no longer configured but they are now, although I'm still getting the error.


Abnormal Conditions - May Cause Poor Performance
Could not initialize output type BBB48String. Check logs for details.

I'm not sure which log it would be that I would need to attach.



I've attached my BBB string output for review.
