Fadecandy Python Examples

This directory contains examples for Fadecandy written in Python.

The Open Pixel Control project includes its own Python examples. Those will all work with Fadecandy too.

Simple LED Patterns

• chase.py
  • Light each LED in sequence
• crosstalk-test.py
  • Each LED strip glows dimly, and one strip at a time will briefly brighten.
  • The first three pixels of each strip indicate its position on the controller.
  • This is intended as a hardware test pattern to isolate any electrical interference issues between strips.
• every-other-white.py
  • Alternate between full-brightness and dark every other LED.
• measuring-stick.py
  • A tool for measuring LED strips.
  • The first LED in each group of 10 glows green.
  • All other LEDs in the strip are dark.
  • LEDs past the first 64 in the strip will be dark.
• solid-white.py
  • Fade all LEDs in to 100% brightness
• strobe.py
  • Rapidly fade all LEDs on and off

Other Samples

• color-correction-ui.py
  • Tk user interface for adjusting color correction settings.
  • Connects directly to fcserver
• firmware-config-ui.py
  • Tk user interface for firmware configuration settings.
  • Connects directly to fcserver
• usb-lowlevel.py
  • Demonstrates low-level USB control of a Fadecandy board, without fcserver.
  • Uses PyUSB

Sample Libraries

• opc.py
  • Original Open Pixel Control client
• fastopc.py
  • Higher-performance OPC client, using NumPy
