Hey everyone. I've got a brand new F48v5 since my F48v4 NS didn't come back to life this year (a problem for another day). I've been testing some new lights on the bench and have been seeing some unexpected output. According to the silk screening on the board and the F48v4 manual, the on-board pixel outputs should be 45-48 (45a-48a) or 29-32 (29a-32a) depending on your board configuration (12 vs 8 receiver chains). I've got a short string of WS2811 pixels for testing and while I am getting them to test properly directly from the web interface, they only test properly when I check the box for port 1 instead of port 45 like I expect it to be. What am I missing here?

We could really use a LOT more information if you want us to give you an educated guess. How about a screenshot of your Pixel outputs page?
What receiver are you using?
How are you testing? From xLights? FPP? The controller? A test device?
How about a screenshot of your Status Page?
How about a picture of your controller with the cable connected?
When you poist the screenshots, please post screenshots and not pictures of your screen
If to err is human, I am more human than most people.

I believe the F48v5 moved the onboard rceeiver to ports 1-4.  The F48v4 and F48v4-NS has them on 45-48

Confirmed.  Even though the board is marked 45-48, the ports are mirrored to 1-4.  I ran into this today while setting up my new F48V5.
