Initialize with different options

Question

Initialize with different options

Opened this issue 4 years ago · 2 comments

I am having difficulties trying to make it work.
I used C library previously with settings for my stripe:

#define LED_PIN 19 //#GPIO pin connected to the pixels(18 uses PWM !).
//LED_PIN         10      // # GPIO pin connected to the pixels (10 uses SPI /dev/spidev0.0).
#define LED_FREQ_HZ 800000 //#LED signal frequency in hertz(usually 800khz)
#define LED_DMA 10         // # DMA channel to use for generating signal (try 10)
#define LED_BRIGHTNESS 255 // # Set to 0 for darkest and 255 for brightest
#define LED_INVERT 0       //True to invert the signal(when using NPN transistor level shift)
#define LED_CHANNEL 1      // # set to '1' for GPIOs 13, 19, 41, 45 or 53

That was working fine in Cpp

No I am trying to convert that to this library but I can't make it to work.
I can't test it on default gpio 18 because I broke it ;)

how do you properly set it up ? Tried that:

const options = {
        dma: config.leds.dma,
        freq: config.leds.freq,
        channels: [
            { count: 20, gpio: 19, invert: false, brightness: 255, stripType: 'ws2812' },
            { count: 20, gpio: 19, invert: false, brightness: 128, stripType: 'ws2812' }
        ]
    };

and that:

const options = {
        dma: config.leds.dma,
        freq: config.leds.freq,
        gpio: 19,//config.leds.gpio,
        invert: config.leds.invert,
        brightness: config.leds.brightness,
        stripType: 'ws2812'
    };

OK I've made v1.x work with node14.

Had to update "nan": "^2.14.2", to the latest in package.json

And because some functions are deprecated I had to modify rpi-ws281x.cc as below.
Then npm install works, and I was amble to initilize LEDs like this (and use channel 1 for GPIO 19):

 const options = {
        dma: config.leds.dma,
        freq: config.leds.freq,
        channels: [
            { count: 20, gpio: 18, invert: false, brightness: 255, stripType: ws281x.stripType.WS2812 },
            { count: 20, gpio: 19, invert: false, brightness: 255, stripType: ws281x.stripType.WS2812 }
        ],
    };
    // ---- trap the SIGINT and reset before exit
    process.on('SIGINT', function () {
        ws281x.reset();
        log.debug("Reseting Leds on exit...")
        process.nextTick(function () { process.exit(0); });
    });
    const channel = ws281x.init(options);
// Rainbow test on channel 1
    var offset = 0;
    setInterval(function () {
        for (var i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
          channel[1].array[i] = colorwheel((offset + i) % 256);
        }
        offset = (offset + 1) % 256;

        ws281x.render();
      }, 1000 / 30);

I am trying 19 on channel 1 with no results unfortunately. I've used your update to the rpi-ws281x.cc with no success. Any other hints or thoughts on this one? I cannot use 13. 18 is working for me, so I'd like to use 19 as a second set.
