LED-Simulator for hyperion and open pixel control.
This is a python/TK app that can load hyperion and hyperion.ng config files or open-pixel-control/OPC layout file and visualize the LED configuration. In addition it opens a OPC server where you can feed the virtual LEDs with real color from hyperion/opc client.
- python 3
- Tkinter support (windows: it comes with standard py3 install. Linux: there are packages)
- source of OPC messages like OLA, Hyperion, OPC-Clients
- a json config file with your led layout (e.g. hyperion config, hyperion-ng LED layout, OPC layouts)
- Hyperion/Hyperion-NG: Ensure you have the latest hyperiond
use the fadecandy driver. (default port is 7890)
hyperion.config.json:
"device" :
{
"name" : "MyPi",
"type" : "fadecandy",
"output" : "127.0.0.1"
},
Setup a LED-device via the Web-UI:
Configuration -> LED Hardware -> LED Controller -> Controller type: "fadecandy"
Specific Settings:
Target IP : 127.0.0.1
Port : 7890
Configure the LED-Layout via the Web-UI:
Configuration -> LED Hardware -> LED Layout -> Classic Layout or Matrix Layout
Get the LED-layout definition via:
Generated/Current LED Configuration -> Update Preview
Copy the content of the text field and save it as a hyperion-ng LED-layout file to be used by the HyperSim server.
configure your client to your HyperSim IP-address and port 7890 use the same LED-layout as the server.
usage: hypersim [-h] [-n] [-c | -r] --hyperion <file> | --opc_xy <file> |
--opc_yz <file> | --opc_xz <file>] [--led_size <pixel>]
[--port <port>]
Simulator for hyperion.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-n, --num show led IDs
-c, --circle draw led as circle/oval
-r, --rect draw led as rect (default)
--hyperion <file> hyperion config
--opc_xy <file> opc config xy components
--opc_yz <file> opc config yz components
--opc_xz <file> opc config xz components
--led_size <pixel> pixel size of a single led (default: 15)
--port <port> set port of OPC-server (default: 7890)
-w, --wide set to 16:9 format
Configuration file can be opened via file menu.
