cm-rgb 0.2.0

Utility to control RGB on AMD Wraith Prism

cm-rgb

Control your Wraith Prism RGB on Linux, Mac OS and Windows

cm-rgb-monitor showing realtime cpu utilization.

Installation

Make sure you have dev libraries for hidapi.

Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install python-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libudev-dev

Other distros

It's possible you already have what it takes to install pip package so try that. If you have any problems regarding hidapi installation see: https://github.com/trezor/cython-hidapi Your issue may already have a solution there.

If you still have a problem please create an issue :)

Finally

Now you can install pip package.

pip install cm-rgb

Configuration

Script must have access to USB device to function properly. It would be wise not to run this as root.

It's now possible to add udev rule by running:

cm-rgb-cli add-udev-rule

It may be required to reload udev for changes to take effect. Now you should be able to run cm-rgb-cli without sudo.

Usage

Included there is a sample script that allows for displaying cpu utilization with ring LED's.

cm-rgb-monitor --cpu-color=#FFA500 --bg-color=#00FFFF

The monitoring script can also display sensor values (e.g. CPU temperature) using the fan color.

cm-rgb-monitor --cpu-color=#FFA500 --bg-color=#00FFFF --show-sensor --low-color=#00FF00 --high-color=#FF0000

Requires lm-sensor installed and configured and a python wrapper for it called pysensors.

Example of CLI usage

cm-rgb-cli set logo --mode=breathe --color=#00ff00 --speed=3 --brightness=5 fan --mode=breathe --color=#0000ff --speed=4 --brightness=1 ring --mode=swirl --color=#ff0000 --speed=1 --brightness=1

In order to make settings persistent append save

cm-rgb-cli set logo --mode=breathe --color=#00ff00 --speed=3 --brightness=5 fan --mode=breathe --color=#0000ff --speed=4 --brightness=1 ring --mode=swirl --color=#ff0000 --speed=1 –brightness=1 save

You can also restore previously saved settings by running

cm-rgb-cli restore

If LED lights disgust you, use this to turn them off.

cm-rgb-cli set logo --mode=off save

Check help for details on each command

cm-rgb-cli set logo --help

Much more flexibility is achievable by using the library directly instead of CLI. All of the 15 LED’s on the ring are available to mess with.
