Package: pyilluminate
pyilluminatePython interface for controlling theIlluminateboards.All units to this interface are in SI units.Copyright (C) 2018-2022, Ramona Optics, Inc.0.7.1 (2024/02/22)Address bug where setting long lists of LED strings would force an update to
the array. This may have caused unwanted flashing for certain users.0.7.0 (2023/12/20)Assume that all board have the ability to toggle autoupdate on and off.0.6.19 (2022/10/16)improve release process.0.6.18 (2022/10/16)Lazy import xarray to speedup import time.Imporve import time by using miniver instead of versioneer0.6.17 (2022/05/03)When opening teensies, ensure that only known devices are opened. (0.6.16 was broken)0.6.16 (2022/05/03)When opening teensies, ensure that only known devices are opened.0.6.15 (2022/04/21)Make the Illuminate driver thread safe.0.6.14 (2022/03/15)Ensure that LEDs that are individually turned off are removed from the LED
list accessible throughIlluminate.led.0.6.13 (2022/02/28)Ensure compatibility with future versions of the firmware where thesetBrightnesscommand will be removed.Add Python slots to help avoid typos when controlling the instrument.0.6.12 (2022/02/23)Removed unused current detection code.0.6.11 (2021/10/30)Ensure compatibility with filelock 3.3.2. Requires multiuserfilelock package.0.6.9 (2021/08/04)Changed default inIlluminate.find_max_brightnessto use current color for the ratio.0.6.8 (2021/08/03)Add an error when users try to accesscolourproperty instead ofcolor.0.6.7 (2021/07/19)Minimize occurance of spurious failures upon opening the LED boards for the
first time.0.6.6 (2021/07/15)Ensured thatcolorproperty has a maximum value of 255.0 for all three color channels.
A warning is provided to users when they set the colors above the maximal value.0.6.5 (2021/04/13)Avoid bogus errors on the system trying to recover from a serial error
caused by undefined_led_state.0.6.4 (2021/03/20)Fixed typo in docs ofIlluminate.find_max_brightnesscausing a section
header to be mis-identified.0.6.3 (2021/03/08)Fixed a bug where estimating the maximum brigthness can return values that
are too large for small numbers of LEDs.0.6.2 (2021/03/04)Docstring formatting fixes.0.6.1 (2021/03/01)Add a property for getting and setting the maximum allowed current on the board.Add a property for getting the maximum current per LED channel.Add a function for calculating the maximum allowed brightness values.0.6.0 (2020/12/29)RemoveLEDColor.0.5.19 (2020/09/05)Fix a bug where the previous pattern would continue to appear when sending
long lists of LEDs.0.5.18 (2020/08/23)Theledattribute is not available to read before ever setting it.0.5.17 (2020/08/16)Avoid buffer overflow errors by ensuring that strings are cut in 64 bytes.
This may make custom LED commands slower.0.5.16 (2020/08/06)FakeIlluminate device now has an ignoredled_typeparameter for fill_array.0.5.15 (2020/08/05)LED state now correctly initialized to avoid spurious errors.0.5.14 (2020/08/05)LED boards can now report the value of the color for all LEDs in theled_colorsproperty.0.5.13 (2020/08/04)Better detection of autoUpdate feature without loading the full Help file.0.5.12 (2020/08/04)Enable downstream to override how led_positions are obtained.0.5.11 (2020/07/27)Better recovery from serial exceptions during boot up procedure.0.5.10 (2020/07/22)Ignore serial communication errors upon closing are ignored.0.5.9 (2020/07/19)Fix openning device by serial number.0.5.8 (2020/07/19)Better handler for lock timeout for downstream developers.0.5.7 (2020/07/19)Multiple users can attempt to use the pyilluminate boards at the same time.0.5.6 (2020/07/19)Bugfix: LED boards can be open by specifyingportparameter again.Private functions for lock and unlock for downstream developers.0.5.5 (2020/07/06)Better support for very long lists of LEDs (best with firmware update).System now raises an error upon using the common typoIlluminate.leds = ...Locks are used to avoid multiple applications from attempting to control the
Illuminate board at the same time.0.5.4 (2020/06/30)Distribution name changed from pyIlluminate to pyilluminate.0.5.3 (2020/06/29)Initial support for 16 bit precision drivers.0.5.2 (2020/06/28)First release on GitHub.0.5.1 (2020/06/27)Initialize all LED arrays with max brightness.0.5.0 (2020/06/27)Autoclear enable/disable functionality can be used to draw LEDs with
different colors.Deprecate the use of theLEDColorclass.0.4.7 (2019/12/12)Better error messages when a device isn't found.0.4.6 (2019/11/18)list_serial_numbers returns serial numbers again0.4.5 (2019/11/14)Not finding any devices raises a better error message.0.4.4 (2019/09/20)Package no longer vendors dataclasses0.4.3 (2019/09/20)Package is no a noarch package.0.4.2 (2019/09/19)JSONDecodeError are alleviated in Windows making opening the LED board more
consistent.0.4.1 (2019/09/01)BUGFIX: Setting the buffer size now only occurs on platforms that support
it. This bug was introduced in 0.4.0 and manifested itself as the inability
to open the device on linux0.4.0 (2019/08/26)Refactored how devices are identified. They are not identified by their
serial numbers instead of their MAC Address. This avoids port knocking and
ensures that openning devices is now faster especially when trying to
connect to multiple Illuminate devices connected to a single computer.0.3.2 (2019/08/19)Fixed up a typo that would cause an error to occur inpositions_as_xarray.0.3.1 (2019/05/22)Improved the error message when trying to open an Serial connection that is already in use.0.3.0Illuminate.led_positions is now an xarray instead of a numpy struct array.Illuminate.positions_as_xarray()is deprecated in favour ofIlluminate.led_positions.The attributeIlluminate.colorcan now be set with either a tuple or a simple scalar.release-0.2.9Better access to the color/bightness propertyThe array will turn itself off once you close pythonClears LEDs when setting individual LEDs too.
