Hey all,

extreme newby here but willy to learn.

having an issue with a script downloaded from GitHub (creates a LED matrix clock). GitHub - nygma2004/nrmetric: NRMeric - ESP Powered NeoPixel Display for Node Red

Get a " Fatal exception 0(IllegalInstructionCause):

epc1=0x402046b5, epc2=0x00000000, epc3=0x00000000, excvaddr=0x00000000, depc=0x00000000"

We will need to see your code and a link to the Github where you got the code.
What model Arduino are you using?
What version IDE are you using?

Thanks.. Tom...

Please follow the advice given in the link below when posting code, in particular the section entitled 'Posting code and common code problems'

Use code tags (the </> icon above the compose window) to make it easier to read and copy for examination

Use the IDE autoformat tool (ctrl-t or Tools, Auto format) before posting code in code tags.

Please include the entire error message. It is easy to do. There is a button (lower right of the IDE window) called "copy error message". Copy the error and paste into a post in code tags. Paraphrasing the error message leaves out important information.

Please post a schematic.

Please post an image of your project.

Please describe the problem better then you just did.
