Server API

A new feature is a server API, so that you can make a program yourself, that can use the features of ArduLED.

Server Settings

The server settings window is really just a console, where you can start and stop the server. As well as making the server start by it self on startup of ArduLED. The IP address can also be changed if desired, however the default should work in most cases.

Test Program

With this new API, a test program have been added (under Source Code) where you can manually send commands to ArduLED, just so you can se how it works, and so that you have a sample of how to connect to it in your own program.

The API commands

There is a preset number of commands to choose from, wich are listed here:

Command

Function

FADECOLOR(bool FromZero, int FromID, int ToID, int R, int G, int B, int FadeSpeed, int FadeFactor)

bool FromZero: If the program is to first set the LEDs to RGB code 0 0 0, before sending the desired colors int FromID: From what Software ID to start from int ToID: To what Software ID to go to int R: The color code for Red (0-255) int G: The color code for Green (0-255) int B: The color code for Blue (0-255) int FadeSpeed: The speed in ms it take for each color jump (see the Fade Colors section for more info) int FadeFactor: The factor of how hard to make each color jump (the value 10 would be equal to a fade factor of 0.1) (see the Fade Colors section for more info)
