Neopixel Ring With Arduino As Control Board

Step 4 of 4
If you have more or less pixels that 24, or you use a different pin on the Arduino to connect to the NeoPixel

If you want to change the pin that the arduino is connecting to the NeoPixel on, change the 2nd parameter in line 321 in the sketch. If you want to change the number of NeoPixles in the ring or device, change the first parameter in line 321.

Example


NeoPatterns Ring1(24, 6, NEO_GRB + NEO_KHZ800, &Ring1Complete);

is for a 24 pixel NeoPixel that has its input pin connected to pin 6 on the Arduino.

Are they neopixel led strips? Then yes. If they’re not then, no.

With this set up....is it NOT possible to use dynamixels at same time as the Neopixels, because they both use D5?

There’s 3 uart on the EZ-B v4. Which means you can use Dynamixels by having this run on a different port.

Maybe I’ll demonstrate neopixelon next hack night if you’d like?
