RGBW and temperature

[Thomasn 77]

Hi,

 

I already have an outside temperature gauge connected to my HC2 and want to use it together with led stripes to show the temperature ie. red when hot outside and blue when cold. Is that possible with the rgbw module?

35° - max

Thank you. I do use lua, but your program is a bit advanced. Could you explain the variables in the start?

Ahhh, sure. but... if motion action it is not necessary for you - remove

Great - I kind of figured it out. Now I just have to wait for the leds - then I will start experimenting!

Last question, 10der:

 

Is it possible to colour temperatures from 0 to 30 in grades of colour from blue over yellow to red in your lua script? The reason I ask is that I have the module but waiting for the led strip to arrive. So I cannot experiment....

 

regards

You are the man, 10der!

All right, Sir, you let us know how that works out for you.

i have used your program with great success. I have mounted a led-strip under some closets to show the outside temperature. When a lamp is turned on, the led-strip show the temperature for 10 sec and then turns white as long as the lamp is on.

 

It works like a charm. But I wonder if there in your program is somewhere where the steps in temperature can be set? It is rather red-ish or even purple around 15 degrees. That colour is just ugly - but the temperature is common in Denmark. Could it be more yellow when middle temperature. I would like the temperature to be more either reddish, yellow-ish or blue-ish?

1) map function - Re-maps a number from one range to another. That is, a value of fromLow would get mapped to toLow, a value of from High to toHigh, values in-between to values in-between, etc.

2) SetLEDbyTemperature - trying to calculate color spline automatically. To control the RGB led which will give you (mathematically) 255*255*255 color (R*G*B)

 

if you trying to search in this forum similar solution you can find a solution with multiple cases like a :

if t >= 0 and t < 10 then colorRgb = aaaa

if t >= 10 and t < 20 then colorRgb = bbbb

if t >= 20 and t < 30 then colorRgb = cccc

etc

 

so, you can change SetLEDbyTemperature void

Hi @kappe,

 

Since you are using Smart Lights v1.7.0 I recommend that you ask @stevenvd in this topic:
