Hello all, first time working with the f16 and I'm lost. I have 2 f16v2r boards with each having the 16 output expansion board. I would like to run my 2 cmb24d boards off the f16 one off each. I have both f16's jumper pins in LOR, DMX port one to universe 2 on one f16 the other in DMX in universe 3. I have communication with both cmb24d's but my color is wrong on both in test mode and through Xlights the color to my pixels is correct but not the cmb24d's. On one blue is green and the other blue is red. My cmb24d's have the jumpers set to DMX and the dip switches set to universe 2 (0 0000 0010) and the other set to DMX universe 3 (0 0000 0011). Am I overlooking or missing something? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.. Jason

I believe you need to set the dip switches to the proper dmx start channel.  The cmb24 doesn't see the universe number it just sees the dmx start channel. So if you have xlight's setup to start at channel 1 for the controller using universe 2 then set the cmb24 to channel 1 also. If you have it starting at channel 2 and xlight's is set to 1 then the color will be off by 1. That's why your seeing blue and not red.
