Light Buddy 2 Functionality

Light Buddy 2


When I built LB2, I developed some unique LED features as explained in an earlier post.  This image shows the current setup of the Windows APP.

 LB2 was originally setup as four pulsing LEDs and two "conventional" LEDs.  LED_A thru LED_D would have one of the following LED Styles

  • OFF
  • STEADY
  • PWM1
  • PWM2

Not sure if the difference between PWM1 and PWM2 will be more than different timing.

LEDs LED_1 and LED_2 being "conventional" would have the following LED Styles

  • OFF
  • STEADY
  • BURST
  • CYCLE

What you can do is add features to these LED Styles.  

STEADY - allows you to add the features SAWTOOTH and TRIANGLE.  The other two do not make much sense, the LED is always on.

BURST - allows you to add the ALWAYS ON and REPEAT ON.  In the future TRIANGLE might be added.

CYCLE - allows for all four.  The red LED on the top of dome in this video, is CYCLE STYLE with a TRIANGLE/ALWAYS ON as the selected FEATURES.  One use for this a heartbeat type effect.  A definition of the different STYLES and FEATURES can be found in this post.

I have other ideas for LED Lighting effects, just need the time to work them out.
