Marxon Posted January 24, 2015 Report Posted January 24, 2015 (edited) Hi all! Because there are various ways to set the colour of a rgb led, i wonder does it make a difference if a colour inside a rgb led matrix is made of multiple single colour events respectively a single rgb event? I guess yes. AFAIK the rgb event uses pwm to mix red green and blue. So creating orange by simply turn on red and green is not a good way. Is this correct?

TK. Posted January 25, 2015 Report Posted January 25, 2015 To be honest: I don't understand the question. Could you please show some .ngc code? Best Regards, Thorsten. Quote
Marxon Posted February 6, 2015 Author Report Posted February 6, 2015 Hi Thorsten, to describe the issue without ich bemühe mich keine Romane zu schreiben und die Beiträge auf das wesentliche meines Anliegens zu reduzieren. Klappt leider nicht immer :smile: I made a ring out of 32 duo colour leds driven by three SRs connected like a 8x8 matrix. Row 1-4 form tbe four quarters of the ring (a second ring with 32 leds is connected to row 5-8...) Now i want to control the red color with a CC and green with another CC like this picture: Because i did not find a better solution i simply mix green and red with this code: # EVENTs [connector RINGS]------------------------------------------------------- # --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DOUT_MATRIX n=1 rows=8 inverted_row=1 inverted_sel=1 mirrored_row=0 sr_dout_sel1=2 sr_dout_r1=1 sr_dout_g1=3 # Ring 1 Red EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=625 type=CC chn=1 cc=111 range=0:32 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=626 type=CC chn=1 cc=111 range=32:64 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=627 type=CC chn=1 cc=111 range=64:96 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=628 type=CC chn=1 cc=111 range=96:127 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 # Ring 1 Green EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=629 hw_id=625 type=CC chn=1 cc=112 range=0:32 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=630 hw_id=626 type=CC chn=1 cc=112 range=32:64 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=631 hw_id=627 type=CC chn=1 cc=112 range=64:96 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=632 hw_id=628 type=CC chn=1 cc=112 range=96:127 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 # Ring 2 Red EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=633 type=CC chn=1 cc=113 range=0:32 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=634 type=CC chn=1 cc=113 range=32:64 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=635 type=CC chn=1 cc=113 range=64:96 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=636 type=CC chn=1 cc=113 range=96:127 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=0 # Ring 2 Green EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=637 hw_id=633 type=CC chn=1 cc=114 range=0:32 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=638 hw_id=634 type=CC chn=1 cc=114 range=32:64 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=639 hw_id=635 type=CC chn=1 cc=114 range=64:96 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 EVENT_LED_MATRIX id=640 hw_id=636 type=CC chn=1 cc=114 range=96:127 led_matrix_pattern=5 colour=1 # LED Patterns LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=0 pattern=0000000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=1 pattern=1000000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=2 pattern=1000000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=3 pattern=1100000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=4 pattern=1100000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=5 pattern=1110000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=6 pattern=1110000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=7 pattern=1111000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=M pattern=1111000000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=8 pattern=1111100000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=9 pattern=1111100000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=10 pattern=1111110000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=11 pattern=1111110000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=12 pattern=1111111000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=13 pattern=1111111000000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=14 pattern=1111111100000000 LED_MATRIX_PATTERN n=5 pos=15 pattern=1111111100000000 Thats what i meant when I said the resulting orange color is made of two "single color" events. Now the question: Does it make a electrical difference to mix a led color this way instead of using the rgb=xx:xx:xx parameter? Best regards Marxon Quote
TK. Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 The electrical difference between your configuration and the rgb=r:g:b is, that rgb=... allows to dimm LED brightness Best Regards, Thorsten. Quote
Marxon Posted February 12, 2015 Author Report Posted February 12, 2015 Ok thank you for clarification Thorsten. Best regards Marxon Quote
