Help driving NEOPixel LED Strip with Circuit Playground Blue

Post by romano47 »

Greetings, all! I'm currently working on a project with a group, trying to get a the Bluefruit Connect app to drive a strip of LEDS via a Circuit Playground Bluefruit.

We're using this wiring diagram[/https://www.digikey.com/maker-media/51f ... 9282bfeb5f], and using the Examples-->BluefruitNRF52Libraries-->peripherals-->neopixel code.

We have a great connection to the Circuit Playground Bluefruit app, and serial is reporting back responsiveness to the commands. However, the LEDs aren't changing colors. Any help would be fantastic.

Thanks!

Did you change the code to set the NeoPixel pin to the strip? It looks like that example uses the on board NeoPixels by default:
