Im trying to get some APA102 LED stripes to work with Teensy 4.0 and the Octo, and would be nice to have some guidelines

Hi All,

I'm completely lost in getting this to work.
I have read every tutorial and getting nowhere.
It seems that on my Teensy 4.1 or 4.0 the 'gotNewDataFrame' state never gets set to true.

I have 8 strips of 13 RGB pixels that are connected to the 8 outputs on the OctoWS2811 Adaptor.
I Assume I need 8 universes each containing just the 39 channels with an incremental channel offset of 39 for each Out Channels.

I can see the data coming in if I print bytes from the processByte(Serial.read()); bytesRead++; in the loop()
But it doesn't get into the function processByte.

I also tried the debug and there is no data showing in the serial window at all.

Hope some one can help me out here as I'm getting desperate

Where would you see serial port data displayed ? MadMapper needs the open the serial port, so I suppose it should be unavailable to other applications.
You have to quit any application that might have opened the serial port to the teensy before starting MadMapper to be sure MadMapper could open the device.
