from m5stack import *
import time
from machine import Pin
from neopixel import NeoPixel

lcd.clear(lcd.WHITE)
lcd.text(lcd.CENTER, lcd.CENTER, "I'm Phelix", lcd.BLACK)

pin = Pin(32, Pin.OUT)
np = NeoPixel(pin, 15)

the range should be set to 155 as there are now 155 LEDs connected together.
They should also be connected as below

However, this many LED's will cause power issues and you will need to build a power booster cable as shown in this guide.

use RGB LED unit in UIFlow which result in this Python code:

from m5stack import *
from m5ui import *
from uiflow import *
import unit

setScreenColor(0x111111)
neopixel_1 = unit.get(unit.NEOPIXEL, unit.PORTA, 10)
neopixel_1.setColor(1, 0xff0000)

Thanks
Felix
