Spoke POV Not Working 1st Attempt

Post by LED_Lighting_Company »

I have just received the Spoke PoV and have built it as per the instructions on the website, nothing complex about it.

All components have been checked for correct orientation prior to power up, no open or short circuits have been found either.
Batteries have been inserted, LEDs scroll, knight rider stylee.
Magnet was passed in front of the hall sensor, sometimes LEDs change.

Heres my first question, is the Micro shipped with test pattern loaded?

PoV has been fitted to wheel as per website, magnet cable tied to frame as the frame is non magnetic.
PoV is then powered up and the wheel spun furiously, but the LEDs do not change.
Is this due to no image loaded to the micro? o

Next I shall build dongle and get an image transfered.

Regards,

Simon
