JoyPi-RGB-Matrix-RaspberryPi 1.0.0

This library enables usage of RGB matrix with RP2040 microcontroller chip on the Raspberry Pi.

JoyPi_RGB_Matrix_RaspberryPi

This library enables usage of RGB matrix with RP2040 microcontroller chip on the Raspberry Pi.

[!WARNING] This library was written for the usage of the LED matrix of the Joy-Pi Advanced 2 and Joy-Pi Note 2. Both Joy-Pis have the RP2040 microcontroller chip to control the LED matrix. This is to ensure compatibility with the Raspberry Pi 5 because the library which was used beforehand is not compatible up to this date.

Installation

You can install this library from PyPI. To install it for the current user on your Raspberry Pi, use the following command:

pip install JoyPi_RGB_Matrix_RaspberryPi

Library Guide

• LEDMatrix( count = 64, brightness = 10, right_border = [7,15,23,31,39,47,55,63], left_border = [0,8,16,24,32,40,48,56])- initialize LED matrix with default values for Joy-Pi
• clean() - clears the LED matrix
• setPixel(position, colour) - sets specific pixel to a selected colour
• RGB_on(colour) - sets the complete matrix to one selected colour
• RGB_off() - turns the complete matrix off
• rainbow(wait_ms=20, iterations=1) - rainbow effect on the whole matrix with default values
• colourWipe(colour, wait_ms=50) - Move selected colour pixel by pixel onto the matrix with default speed
• theaterChase( colour, wait_ms=50, iterations=10) - chaser animation with a selected colour with deafult speed
• show() - displays set pixels
• demo1() - demo program version 1
• demo2() - demo program version 2
