Help, can't get PCA9685 working with xLights and FPP

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble configuring xLights to work with a PCA9685 PWM board.

Just to clarify, the board DOES work correctly when using FPP's test mode, I can see the servo quickly move to zero so that works fine. I'll attach some screenshots of my configuration. I think theres something incorrectly configured in my xLights, but I'm quite new to it so I can easily miss something. Thanks everyone

You cannot use the visualizer for the pca9685 stuff.  You will need to assign it a start channel manually and make sure the start channel matches what is in the start channel for the pca9685 on the other tab.
