I have a problem with the building lighting project. I’m using DMX with logic machine.
Now, We can give the desired color to the building. but leds don’t turn off when i give the black color?
And When the system enters the time program, sometimes the color changes appear on the first two floors?
What would be the reason?

I think it should be 120 ohm, Is it working on shorter cable?

I'm just trying to limit the point of failure and always first is the cabling. As you mentioned floors then you have a long cable and then correct terminator is important.

I would connect one light on short cable to see if everything works OK. If you have screened cable then it should be gnd on one side only.
