linux-thermaltake-rgb 0.2.0.post1564303991

python driver and daemon for thermaltake hardware products

Linux driver and daemon for Thermaltake Riing

Compatibility

Python3 only.

Currently supported devices are (as they show up in thermaltakes TTRGBPLUS software:

• Flow Riing RGB
• Lumi Plus LED Strip
• Pacific PR22-D5 Plus
• Pacific Rad Plus LED Panel
• Pacific V-GTX 1080Ti Plus GPU Waterblock
• Pacific W4 Plus CPU Waterblock
• Riing Plus

If your's isn't listed, please create an issue and I'll implement it ASAP!!

Installation

Pypi

sudo pip3 install linux_thermaltake_rgb
The setup file will create the systemd unit in /usr/share/linux_thermaltake_rgb
you will need to copy these to the appropriate locations:

sudo cp /usr/share/linux_thermaltake_rgb/linux-thermaltake-rgb.service /usr/lib/systemd/system/

# and if this is a fresh install copy the default config file:
sudo mkdir /etc/linux_thermaltake_rgb/
sudo cp /usr/share/linux_thermaltake_rgb/config.yml /etc/linux_thermaltake_rgb/

Arch linux

available in the aur as linux-thermaltake-rgb

Starting and Enabling the Daemon

start and enable the systemd service
systemctl enable --now linux-thermaltake-rgb.service

Configuration

the configuration file is expected to be in: /etc/linux_thermaltake_rgb/config.yml
edit and configure suitably.

example config is in linux_thermaltake_rgb/assets/config.yml

Fan Manager Settings

• temp_target increases/decreases fan speed in direct response to the difference of actual temperature to target temperature multiplied by the specified multiplier with an extemely simple - read, dumb - smoothing function

  • settings:
    • sensor_name [name of the sensor to get temperature reading from(names can be found by running sensors in a terminal)]
    • target [target temperature]
    • multiplier

• locked_speed sets the fan speeds to a static speed, regardless of temperature or... anything really

  • settings:
    • speed [0-100]

• curve allows defining of a fan speed curve

  • settings:

    • points
      example config:

    fan_manager:
      model: curve
      points:
        - [0, 0]  # [temp(*C), speed(0-100%)]
        - [50, 30]
        - [70, 100]
      sensor_name: k10temp
    

    • sensor_name [name of the sensor to get temperature reading from(names can be found by running sensors in a terminal)]

Lighting Manager Settings

To save repetition:
speed: desired refresh speed of the device ['slow', 'normal', 'fast', 'extreme'] g/r/b: RGB values of the desired colour

• alternating
  alternates between odd_rgb and even_rgb such that every "tick" the lights on the device will alternate between the 2 colours

  • settings:
    • speed
    • odd_rgb:
      • g
      • r
      • b
    • even_rgb:
      • g
      • r
      • b

• temperature will set lighting to a colour between blue/green/red and anywhere inbetween depending on the temperature of the selected sensor

  • settings:
    • speed
    • sensor_name [name of the sensor to get temperature reading from(names can be found by running sensors in a terminal)]
    • cold [desired temperature to set lighting to blue]
    • hot [desired temperature to set lighting to red]
    • target [desired temperature to set lighting to green]

• full sets lighting to this colour

  • settings:
    • r
    • g
    • b

• off as it sounds, turns lighting off

  • settings:

• flow walks each led in the device slowly going around the RGB spectrum individually

  • settings:
    • speed

• spectrum fades all lights at the same time through the RGB spectrum

  • settings:
    • speed

• ripple leading led light followed by a trail of fading led's that walk all led's in the device

  • settings:
    • speed
    • r
    • g
    • b

• blink repeatedly flashes the led's in the devices in the selected colour

  • settings:
    • speed
    • r
    • g
    • b

• pulse same as blink, except using a smooth fade

  • settings:
    • speed
    • r
    • g
    • b
