Control packets

hi stefan,

if you want the change color and the structure frame:

0x24 <= LEN ALL FRAME
0x00<=SITE ID or zone
0xFF, 0xFF<= ??
0x6F, 0xFF <= SEQUENCE NUMBER = the next frame is 0x70
0x0A, <= LEN FOR COMMAND
0x01, 0x10, 0x02, 0x00, 0x00, 0xD9, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x80,
0x03, <= LEN FOR NEXT COMMAND
0x36, 0x24, 0x00,
0x03, <= LEN FOR NEXT COMMAND
0x01, 0x23, 0x00,
0x09, <= LEN FOR NEXT COMMAND
0x0A, 0x00,<=THIS COMMAND FOR COLOR
0xF8, 0xFB, 0xFD, 0xF0, 0xFE,0xFA, 0xFF, COLOR IS => RED 0xF8;ORANGE 0xF9;YELLOW 0xFA;GREEN 0xFB;BLUE 0xFD;PURPLE 0xFEWHITE 0xFF;
0x01,<= LEN FOR NEXT COMMAND
0x43

it's possible on byte color is start  on 0xF0 and finish on 0xff.

site id : i have xylo-5c and xylo speaker is 0xfe or 0x01; the all  react on 0x00.

Stephan, could you please send me your capture SPI it's possible?

Best regard

good job stefan,


on this packet i see to change the byte 8 =0x4 = is fading, 0x02 =switch on off

i suspicous a many possibility and it's very hard to decoding all frame.

it's possible to reduce investigation for command to same MTX controller for all device.

i explain:

switch(SELECT_DEL)
{
case OLED_RED:
{
break;
}
case OLED_ORANGE:
{

break;
}
case OLED_YELLOW:
{

break;
}
case OLED_GREEN:
{

break;
}
case OLED_BLUE_C:
{

break;
}
case OLED_BLUE:
{

break;
}
case OLED_PURPLE:
{

break;
}
case OLED_WHITE:
{


break;
}
case OLED_MULTI:
{

break;
}

}

switch(sw)
{
case SW_DRUM:
{

break;
}
case SW_DHEART:
{

break;
}
case SW_DHEART2:
{

break;
}
case SW_SWITCH:
{

break;
}
case SW_LIGHTON:
{
0x11 ,0x00 ,0xFF ,0xFF ,0x0E ,0xFF , 0x06 ,0x01 ,0xC6 ,0xFF ,0x00 ,0x00 ,0xFA , 0x02 ,0x11 ,0x07 , 0x03 ,0x36 };
break;
}
case SW_FADING:
{

break;
}
case SW_FIRE:
{

break;
}
case SW_STOP:
{

}
case SW_ON:
{
0x06, 0x00, 0xff, 0xff, 0x00, 0x81, 0x02
break;
}
case SW_OFF:
{
0x06, 0x00, 0xff, 0xff, 0x00, 0x82, 0x02
break;
}

Command 0x36 seems to be some kind of "zone holdoff": It's two byte parameter (low/high-byte of 16 bit word) defines a time that is multiplied with the zone id each band is in and that controls how long the band stays dark (?) before executing the currently setup pattern.
As I have bands from 4 different zones, this causes a kind of "chaser effect" over the zones.

I just watched the Orlando zone test video, and it looks to me like there are zones within zones which would explain byte 3. At one point in that video all of the zones have multiple colors within the zone, but they're able to strobe the zones (even with multiple colors in that zone). That implies to me the concept of a sub-zone. I'm scratching my head a bit to figure out how a band knows which zone it's in...I suppose you could program that into the firmware but that seems like a rather over-kill approach (essentially different firmware image for each zone?)

Another option for the zone-strobing I suppose would be the zone-holdoff concept but that wouldn't explain to me how to set random colors within a zone.

Hello all together,

I followed the instructions and got the shield as well as the xylobands runnig... but I can't send the specific commands, for one colour or so... always error :/ I appreciate any help and I'm also willing to help I have around 100 bands for testing. How would a sniffer would work? Sorry for being such a newbie but willing to learn fast greetings
