I have a string of 8 Neopixels which I can light using a FOR/NEXT loop each cycle setting a pin HIGH/LOW to light the string (24 BYTES * 8 cycles total).

So Question: After I've written all 8 pixels say Green, how do I overwrite them with the next FOR/NEXT cycle to change the colour as the Green colour has 'latched on' on all 8 pixels and needs clearing / resetting?

Do I have to send a 'single' RESET pulse pin LOW 50u_sec (from data sheet) or 8 separate RESET pulses for all 8 pixels?

Or am I barking up the wrong tree with the above?

Thanks for any help in advance.
