Configuration file
The configuration file is an INI text file ( config.ini ) placed at the root directory of the micro-SD card. It is subdivided into six sections:
● Settings
●
Fonts
●
Effects
● Presets
● Blade Colours
●
Blade Profiles (effects)
Refer to the config.ini file on micro-SD card as an example.
Settings Section
blade_type
– can have one of the following values:
hbled – for high-brightness LEDs
pixel – for addressable LED strips
strip_type
– is valid only if blade_type = pixel and can have one of the following values:
ws2812 – for WS2812 and SK6812 led (pixel) strips
apa102
– for APA102C led (pixel) strips
pixel_count – is valid only if blade_type = pixel and is the number of leds on ONE SIDE of the strip, for example:
pixel_count = 144
hbledN – this configures each LED output being N the number of the LED: 1, 2 or 3, where 1 = RED, 2 = GREEN, 3 = BLUE. It is a series of values defined like:
hbledN = <maximum current>, <maximum voltage>, <resistor>, <current point 1>, <voltage point 1>
<maximum current> – is the maximum current the LED can withstand (in amperes)
<maximum voltage> – is the voltage at maximum current (in volts)
<resistor> – is the resistor connected to the LED (in Ohms)
<current point 1> – is a current value in amperes, lower than maximum current (usually 0.35A)
<voltage point 1> – is the voltage of the LED at current point 1 (LED voltage at 0.35A)
<current point 1> and <voltage point 1> are values used to estimate the current of the LED when the input voltage is higher than maximum voltage.
For example, for an LED connected to
LED output 1
, with maximum current =
1
A, maximum voltage =
2.7
V, a
1
Ohm resistor, current point 1 =
0.35
A and
voltage point 1 = 2.2 V, the value should be:
hbled1 = 1, 2.7, 1, 0.35, 2.2
NOTE:
if
hbled1
,
hbled2
or
hbled3
values are missing in the configuration file, then the following values are taken by default (for a Cree XPE2 RGB LED):
hbled1 = 1, 2.65, 1, 0.35, 2.2 – (RED LED)
hbled2 = 1, 3.7, 0, 0.35, 3.2 – (GREEN LED)
hbled3 = 1, 3.4, 0.33, 0.35, 3.1 – (BLUE LED)
The
RED LED
has a 1 Ohm resistor, the
GREEN LED
has no resistor and the
BLUE LED
has no resistor.
crossguard_pixel_count – is valid only if blade_type = pixel and is the number of LEDs in each secondary LED strip.
Should be 0 if no secondary strip is installed.
crossguard_delay – is valid only if blade_type = pixel and is the delay between the end of the ignition/retraction of the main blade and the start of the
ignition/retraction of the crossguard blades. A higher number means a longer delay. A value of 100 produces a delay equivalent to 100 pixels
ingiting/retracting between the main and crossguard pixels.
