Simple packet communication between 900mhz radios. reciever is half of the solution, the other half is in the transmitter application.

Starting point for custom LED strip installs

• FastLED https://github.com/FastLED/FastLED
• buttonhandler https://github.com/ericklein/buttonhandler
• encoder https://github.com/PaulStoffregen/Encoder
• Adafruit NeoPixel https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_NeoPixel

• 1 or more: Adafruit Rotary Encoder 377b
• 1 or more: simple buttons
• LED strip; any supported by FastLED or Adafruit NeoPixel (for RGBW)
• optional: Blinkytape (Arduino Leonardo with 60 WS2811)
• 1X: MCU if not Blinkytape
• 1 protoboard
• wire

• buttons to digital pin, ground
• rotary encoder to interupt enabled pins, ground
• LED strip to data pin(s), independent 5v, power GND + Arduino GND

• See Evernote note on wiring for LED strips.

• 111820 - [P1] Code does not compile when lightfieldeffects.ino is included. Code needs to be transitioned to David's LEDControl library

• 10/17/14
  • fork from example to control LPD8806-based RGB LED Modules in a strip
  • added multiple button support, will be augmented/replaced by rotary encoder in future version
• 11/15/14
  • prototypes for desired lighting functions (lightXxYy)
• 04/21/15
  • fixed bugs in lightColorFill
• 03/02/16
  • first version in GitHub
  • added rotary encoder, code is extremely crude
• 04/27/16
  • 03/02/16 - rotary encoder push is captured
  • code readability improved, still much to do
• 05/22/16
  • changed rotation tracking to boolean
  • 03/02/16 - fixed wrap-around of intensity bug
  • moved light test script from loop() to lightTest, no dev work done on function itself
  • hard coded button functionality, now can comment out functionality based on hardware config
• 12/27/16
  • completed 05/22/16 revisions
  • 03/02/16 - switch from LED intensity (one value) to r,g,b levels
• 12/29/16
  • fixed bug in blue to white transition
  • 04/21/15 - move light functions to library
  • 03/02/16 - added off (0) state to stripColor to control On/Off
  • 03/02/16 - added "powered" On/Off state with control from rotary encoder; Arduino and LED are powered, LEDs at 0,0,0
• 07/19/17
  • Moved revision history, feature requests, build targets, etc. to README.md
  • refactored code in loop() 07/29/17
  • 03/02/16 - can I use FastLED or other generic library
• 08/01/17
  • 04/27/16 - consistent use of wire color for ground, etc.
  • 12/27/16 - standard connectors for LED strip
  • 07/29/17 - FastLED 3.1 upgrade
  • 07/29/17 - move LED pins to SPI
  • 07/29/17 - how do I checkin code with new filename
• 08/06/17
  • 07/29/17 - fix lightfieldeffects.ino after FastLED transition
• 11/21/17
  • completed lightfieldeffects.ino fixes after FastLED transition
  • conditional code branching for blinkytape and LPD8806 11/26/17
  • 12/29/16 - button support to library
  • 11/20/17 - button globals probably don't need to be global
• 05/05/19
  • [FR 08/06//17] should I run a FastLED.clear() before each light function?
    • Yes, functions don't clear themselves so higher logic can control this
  • [FR 08/06/17] switch delay() to FastLED.delay function?
    • No, FastLED.delay() only for platforms without native delay() function
  • added brightness parameter to lightColorChase, lightTheatreChase
  • updated button initialization based on changes to button library
• 06/02/19
  • variable name changes to improve code readability
  • function name alignment missed during 05/05/19 changes
  • [FR 05/10/19] ARM compilation
  • [FR 03/02/16] CRGB::Red is green and CRGB::Green is Red [LPD8086]
• 04/25/20
  • [FR 11/24/17] transition to encoder library for rotary encoder support
  • [FR 05/22/16] why do I care about halfLeft and halfRight? -> CLOSED with encoder.h
  • [FR 11/20/17] enum stripColor for readability
  • [FR 11/24/17] stripColor should not also embed on/off status (see 03/02/16), impacts resolveButtons
  • [FR 11/24/17] implement DEBUG flag for print and println and put !Serial under that debug flag
  • RGBW strip support via Adafruit NeoPixel library
• 111820
  • Added more control for RGBW strips
