The main purpose of this software was to provide a functional and configurable controlling SW for the Yahboom RGB Cooling HAT. Such SW is currently missing and Yahboom provides only programming samples.
This software is dependant on the wiringPi library.
cd src
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make CFLAGS=-DNDEBUG
The resulting binary is called cooling_hat.
./cooling_hat [-d] [-q] [-r fan_range:...] | [-h] | [-f fan_settings] | [-l led_settings] | [-e effect_settings]
The following options are available:
-h Shows usage.
-q Suppress logging.
-d Runs as a daemon.
-f fan_settings Sets the fan speed to the specified value and quits.
fan_settings:
0: Fan Off
1: 100% speed
2: 20% speed
3: 30% speed
4: 40% speed
5: 50% speed
6: 60% speed
7: 70% speed
8: 80% speed
9: 90% speed
-l led_settings Sets the given LED to the specified R,G,B values and quits.
led_settings: LED_NUMBER,RED,GREEN,BLUE
LED_NUMBER: 0-2
LED_NUMBER: 3 ... all LEDs
RED: 0-255
GREEN: 0-255
BLUE: 0-255
-e effect_settings Sets the LEDs effect to the specified values and quits.
effect_settings: EFFECT,SPEED,COLOR
EFFECT: 0 ... water light
EFFECT: 1 ... breathing light
EFFECT: 2 ... marquee
EFFECT: 3 ... rainbow lights
EFFECT: 4 ... colorful lights
SPEED: 0 ... low
SPEED: 1 ... medium
SPEED: 2 ... high
COLOR: 0 ... red
COLOR: 1 ... green
COLOR: 2 ... blue
COLOR: 3 ... yellow
COLOR: 4 ... purple
COLOR: 5 ... cyan
COLOR: 6 ... white
-r fan_range Sets the fan ranges. If multiple fan_range are specified they need to be ordered from the lowest temperature!
fan_range: UPPER_RANGE,fan_settings
UPPER_RANGE: 0-255
The systemd service script was implemented to have the starting and stopping under the control.
To enable it, just copy the provided systemd/cooling_hat.service to the /etc/systemd/system/.
Do not forget to build the cooling_hat binary and copy it over to the /opt/bin/.
Fan speed and temperature ranges may be adjusted per your needs. Simply change the line ExecStart=/opt/bin/cooling_hat -r 30,0:40,3:60,5:70,9 -d and provide your ranges (see the -r argument).
Then, the service needs to be enabled.
sudo systemctl enable cooling_hat.service
Restart your RPi and check that the service is running.
systemctl list-units --type service --all
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
...
cooling_hat.service loaded active running Yahboom's Cooling Hat control service
All logging is redirected to the /var/log/syslog which might be useful for debugging purposes. The output can be suppressed by the -q argument, which is specified by default in the systemd service.
Many thanks to @abecko who provided his yahboom HW and got the idea for implementing this!
