Hi Guys.

I am very new to FAST LED.

I am using Teensy 3.5 to control the LEDs.

number of led strips = 14
number of leds on each strips = 30

I want to do something like this below. I don’t know how to wire the leds.

should I use different data pins for each strips or can I use one data pin to control all leds.

if I use 1 data pin how can I take control of each strips?

Please help me out.

Thank you.

You can declare in Fastled one strip per pin. The teensy should have enough pins available for that. That will make your coding easier than using one pin for all the strips.

This can all be wired to the same pin actually

You didn’t mention what type of pixels you’re using, but if APA102 you could use the cool trick on the bottom of the this page.
