- Tue Apr 12, 2016 6:37 am #45350 Hello everyone, I'm having fun with this easy and beautiful ESP8266 basic.
I bought a 5 meter Neopixel led strip. Usually have 300 led.
Trying the Basic commands for this LED, it all works on the first try.
However it seems the commands do not exceed the LED 255.
I did something wrong, or is there a limitation?
If is there a limitation, can i ask to expand the maximum addressing?

Thanks for considering the request.
Best regards.

NEO () command now works with the LEDs up to 300.

neocls () is still stuck at 255

neostripcolor () is still stuck at 255

Thank you for your hard work in recent days.

- Tue Apr 26, 2016 5:49 pm #46275 I tested the functions in 2.0a18 version.
With fun I tested Neocls and Neostripcolor. Works fine with 300 LEDs.
With much fun I watched into the new Basic Help "example of a spectacular looking image button".

Trying Neosetup command with the pin 12 (D6) as the first statement I saw that:
Neo.setup(12) --> exception (28) crash...
Neo.setup(D6) --> Works
Neosetup(12) --> Tried to call unknown built-in function! Syntax error Halted at line 1
Neosetup(D6) --> Tried to call unknown built-in function! Syntax error Halted at line 1
bla=Neosetup(12) --> Tried to call unknown built-in function! message, after that program start and Led works on pin 12
bla=Neosetup(D6) --> Tried to call unknown built-in function! message, after that program start and Led works on pin 12

What will be the correct syntax?
