way to control RGB LEDs from software.
kazi...@gmail.com
It's my first post here, so first of all thanks for all the hard work to the creators of the library.
My situation is following:
I have 3 tlc5940s and I control 16 RGB LEDs with them. Everything is working fine and I managed to hook up pots to control the LEDs without problems. However my project is to make a 16 step RGB LED sequencer that can be controlled from potentiometers, but also in another mode it could be programmed from software like MAX/MSP or Pure Data.
I guess it would have to be done via PWM pins (I have only 2 left unless I use arduino mega). It would probably involve writing serial messages to the array of the gray scale values, but I have no idea how to deal with those 24-byte numbers. Maybe there is a tool for that or an easier way that someone is aware of?
Any tips greatly appreciated!
cheers
