    I helped my son install a cfx and everything works but we are getting an overheating warning while everything is in the hilt. Any suggestions on what I can do to, thanks for any help. He has a tri-cree LED and I believe that the resistor is the issue for the red LED but I don't know.

    adjust your htemp settings to a higher temperature

    I'm looking to make LED pucks to wire to a PCB neopixel disk for CFX to adapt a neopixel saber into a more combat capable saber for sparring purposes. What kind of power output do I have to accommodate for when choosing my resistor?

    I can't find out how to change fonts in single switch mode on the CFX.

    I must be missing something glaringly obvious, but I can't seem to find anything about it in the Crystal Focus 10 manual!

    EDIT: After hours of troubleshooting, I finally discovered the secret.

    If anyone else has the same question and comes across my post, hopefully this can help. In order to enter the soundbank selection and change fonts without an auxiliary switch, you must be holding down the activation switch while the saber is booting.

    The easiest way to do this is by holding the activation switch while removing the kill key; however, you can also restart the saber by holding down the activation switch for about 10 seconds (while the saber is already deactivated). Basically, just hold down the button until you hear the words: "soundbank selection". From there, a tap on the button will cycle the fonts forward, while holding the activation switch will select that font.

    Have a CFX I've installed in a Korbanth AS2, with an RGB Tri-Cree. Everything seems wired together correctly. When powered up, everything works fine, except LED not lighting up. I had a similar problem when I installed a Quigon saber recently, and changing strippower=0000 worked, but it's not with this install. LEDs are good - tested prior to install. Any help is greatly appreciated. Config:

    Sorry, it was a long day at work. I had basically wanted first color to be blue, 2nd red. Maybe I messed this up. Thanks, FJK!

    Unless you have strips specially set up that way, the normal sequence is RGB. Color 1 would (should) be a straight red blade. You’re likely on Color 0 right now, but you’re not likely seeing anything because the header says [Color] and NOT [Color = 0]

    I'm not sure why, but the Color = 0 did not copy and paste correctly. It's always been Color = 0. Sorry about that. I just double checked and tested it again, still no light.

    I’d then check your wiring. And do it outside the hilt.
