so if i understand you david pin 18 and 19 are bolt connected to the black pin on ezbv

not at all.

the black from the ezb goes to the ground pin on the arduino

The white pin goes to the receive on the arduino. It all depends on which port you you use, but if you want to use the sketch that Luis provided, the documentation is available in the tutorial.

When I get time, I will provide a step by step video on how to make a neopixel ring work with the EZ-B through an Arduino. I just don't have time until after this weekend at the earliest.

@Nomad6R, I just updated the tutorial for connecting the Neo Pixel ring to clarify that the "Signal Pins" on the EZB are connected to the RX and TX on the Arduino. Did you get yours working?
