Wall mounted 'mood light'

S_INFO inly exist in the dev branch.

That also means you have to convert the 1.5 sketch. Convert instructions here:

@mickaelr30 , did you ever get this working with 1.5?

i've got the upgrade instructions, but struggling to reverse it so it works with my current setup. Don't think i'm quite ready to upgrade all my nodes to dev quite yet.

[AWI]

@Adam-McCartney add these lines in the header and you will have it working with the production version...

// V_TEXT & V_INFO when not using the DEVELOPMENT version 
const byte V_TEXT = 47 ;					// values taken from development edition MyMessage.h
const byte S_INFO = 36 ;

@AWI said:

const byte S_INFO = 36 ;

awesome, thanks!

I'm more of a butcher than a surgeon. I can quite happily take things apart, but fixing things usually goes right over my head!!

I really love this project.
May I can include it in all of my sensors (doorbell, thermostat, alarm,...).

Really sounds great, thanks

Is there a way to get your wiring schema ?

[AWI]

@Mehdi-HAMIDA There is nothing to it. A standard MySensors node (5v) with the strip connected to D5 and a button between ground and D4.

const int stripPin = 5 ;                                    // pin where 2812 LED strip is connected
const int buttonPin = 4 ;                                   // push button

@AWI OK, just ordered the PCB
thx

@AWI: Won't this part of your sketch create sort of an endless loop?

        case RGB_TextColorChild:                            // Text color from controller
            if (message.type == V_TEXT) {                   // if get color from text child
                gw.request(RGB_TextColorChild, V_TEXT);

[AWI]

@mfalkvidd Good observation. Probably the the result of an 'efficient' copy/paste :flushed:

The line

    gw.request(RGB_TextColorChild, V_TEXT);

I there with no reason, can be deleted...

Im building the same light, but i use 12v LED strips controlled with mosfets. Is it possible to use the same scetch?

[AWI]

@Tore-André-Rosander If you use standard 12v strips it won't work as such. The ws2812/11 chips in the strip used make it possible to address the individual led's.

[Tore André Rosander]

@AWI Is this code for version 1.5?
Im trying to compile it for the dev (v2) but i get a lot of errors.
Mostly alot of code that "was not declared in this scope".

EDIT: Just found your link to the "Conversion guide", will have look at it!
