      Hey,

      I followed the guide here to wire 8 Neopixels to my Duet 2 using this Adafruit levelshifter. However, I have some serious issues with my LEDs.

      They do light up and react to commands, however, their behavior is all wrong. Sending the same command multiple times sets them to different colors each time and the brightness control doesn't seem to do anything except for turning them off at 0. I also can't set the first LED in the string to anything, it just stays off.

      I configured them with M150 X2 and correctly set the S parameter to my desired 8 LEDs for the color commands.

      The cabling is quite long (1.5m) as the LEDs are part of my toolchanger head. Please don't tell me I need another USB3 cable so it's all shielded and stuff... 😞

      Any ideas?
