Step 5Wire to the LED strip
This step takes some careful soldering.
- Cut 6 small (1.5") segments of fine hook up wire and strip both ends
- Carefully solder one wire to each of the 6 connections on the end of the LED strip you cut. The labels should all be right side up. The inputs should read top to bottom, GND , SI, DI, CI,LI and 5V .
- now connect the wires to the appropriate pin on the IC socket.
-- GND on the strip is connected to pin 8 of the IC (0V)
-- SI on the strip on the strip is connected to pin 7 of the IC (output 0)
-- DI on the strip is connected to pin 6 of the IC (output 1)
-- CI on the strip is connected to pin 5 of the IC (output 2)
-- LI on the strip is connected to pin 3 of the IC (output 4)
-- 5V on the strip is connected to pin 1 of the IC (5V)
- You must also make one additional connection to keep the PICAXE serial input from floating
-- Pin 2 of the IC (Ser IN) is connected to Pin 8 of the IC (0V)
