I don't think it does but willcheck..thanksMonitor does not have an hdmi input ?
From our experience, 10v pwm almost always work where 0-10 v analog is expected. Last time we checked one of the commercial controller using oscillioscope it was generating 10v pwm and then passed it through a LPF.
That said, it should be possible to generate o-10v analog signal as well using a DAC, its just I didnt encounter the need for it. If someone hits this roadblock, we can revisit
This stuff is waaaaay over my head. The electronics are what worries me...though I will be documenting the procedure as I go to help any others . We can add it to fill out the build and general guides
nope. Just USB ttl cable will do. In fact with no display or console connection will boot as wellI believe you still have to have a hdmi to seup the reefpi after you get it booted?
Don't worry, it may not be a smooth experience, since this is diy and the project is relatively young. But you won't fail. And these steps will get easier as time passesThis stuff is waaaaay over my head. The electronics are what worries me...though I will be documenting the procedure as I go to help any others .

I learned electronics couple of years back. I am more familiar with software and biology (job is in software, and education in biology) , the whole openhardware movement and forums like this made electronics/IoT approachable for meI am more at home with the software than the electronics and components. Look forward to learning it
Wow! Glad to jump in this too.
Now i gotta figure out how my leds are wired. Looks like the bluefish controller will make both 0-5v and 0-10volts.
Well these are marsaqua led black boxes. They were converted to the bluefish controller. I bought them used so i havent opened them up yet.Post a pic of the driver. Both open and closed it will be helpful for seeing what you have and will also be good documentation for the thread.[emoji41]
That would be so, so helpful to me because I have no idea what most of these words are and it just feels like a huge barrier to entry.Just looked at one of the last commits of Ranjibs code that was just committed. Of course I don't understand it, but noticed he includes tooltips. Very cool.
This made me wonder if we needed a glossary of terms. Things like cron, commit, pull, etc., are common in software work but not in everyday life. I would be happy to begin this if anyone thinks it might be useful.
Ranjib, what do you think? This would not be more work for you, except to review it and load it on github. Maybe we can even define the components..okay, not a real glossary, but something that explains terms and components most people are not familiar with.
