LEDs flashing on and off

Post by budhaboy »

errr, I've been wiring up my DIY LEDs from Rapidled and as I got the first bank done, I wanted to test fire the leds to be sure there were no bad connections - I hooked up the Dimmers to the two ports on the Relay Box, turned on the system and now the LEDs are turning on and off - any reason why? I havent changed the default programming, other than play with the brightness levels. Have I done something wrong? is the default programming set to flash on and off like this?

before putting all this together I made sure I had the proper "P" meanwell drivers for this.

Just to make sure, would you be able to download the latest installer and restore the preloaded code?
Use menu Tools->Restore Preloaded Code

I'm getting an error compiling.

reads at bottom of the installer:

Assembler messages:
Fatal Error: can't create wire\utility\twi.c.o: permission denied

hmmmm, seems I have a dead USB port on my "dedicated" laptop, compiling now

It might be nothing related with your case, but when i did my moonlight i use 3 RB leds hooked to a 300mA power supply with variable voltage, on 9v they lights nice, on 12v they flash on/off.
