* Pattern format for LED pattern trigger |
|
|
|
The pattern is given by a series of tuples, of brightness and duration (ms). |
|
The LED is expected to traverse the series and each brightness value for the |
|
specified duration. Duration of 0 means brightness should immediately change to |
|
new value, and writing malformed pattern deactivates any active one. |
|
|
|
1. For gradual dimming, the dimming interval now is set as 50 milliseconds. So |
|
the tuple with duration less than dimming interval (50ms) is treated as a step |
|
change of brightness, i.e. the subsequent brightness will be applied without |
|
adding intervening dimming intervals. |
|
|
|
The gradual dimming format of the software pattern values should be: |
|
"brightness_1 duration_1 brightness_2 duration_2 brightness_3 duration_3 ...". |
|
For example (using sysfs interface): |
|
|
|
echo 0 1000 255 2000 > pattern |
|
|
|
It will make the LED go gradually from zero-intensity to max (255) intensity in |
|
1000 milliseconds, then back to zero intensity in 2000 milliseconds: |
|
|
|

|
0-| / \/ \/ |
|
+---0----1----2----3----4----5----6------------> time (s) |
|
|
|
2. To make the LED go instantly from one brightness value to another, we should |
|
use zero-time lengths (the brightness must be same as the previous tuple's). So |
|
the format should be: "brightness_1 duration_1 brightness_1 0 brightness_2 |
|
duration_2 brightness_2 0 ...". |
|
For example (using sysfs interface): |
|
|
|
echo 0 1000 0 0 255 2000 255 0 > pattern |
|
|
|
It will make the LED stay off for one second, then stay at max brightness for |
|
two seconds: |
|
|
|
