Version 0.26 Now Available!

Version 0.26 Highlights

Version 0.26 provides a new auto on/off feature to the options.

You can optionally enable this new feature and specify a certain time of day when the LED matrix will automatically be turned off. A second time can then be specified when the matrix will turn on again. Alternatively, both of these options have a brightness setting. This means you can use this same process to dim and brighten the LEDs at certain times (instead of turning them on/off). This might be used to dim the matrix in the evenings, maybe for TV viewing, and then have it automatically brighten again the next morning.

Use of this feature is optional and it will be disabled by default. See the wiki page Using the Web Settings for more info.

Prior version new feature highlights

Version 0.25

Introduced new option to use the local API as a source for indoor/outdoor temperatures instead of the onboard sensor (AHT20) and OpenWeatherMap. This allows temperatures to be sourced from something like sensors or sources defined in Home Assistant or other external system.

Version 0.24

Introduced substantial enhancements to the API for controlling the matrix via a third-party system.

• Added toggle in addition to on/off for a number of API calls
• Added API call for binary clock mode
• New API state command to return a JSON list of all current settings and options

This update also included new Home Assistant examples for using the new API to create a sample dashboard and automations.
