Currently supported devices:

• Kuando / Plenom BusyLight Alpha (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCA)
• Kuando / Plenom BusyLight UC (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCB)
• Kuando / Plenom Kuando Box (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCC)
• Kuando / Plenom BusyLight Omega (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCD)
• Kuando / Plenom BusyLight Alpha 2 (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCE)
• Kuando / Plenom BusyLight Omega 2 (Vendor ID 0x27BB Product ID 0x3BCF)

Dependency: node-hid

Install

npm install @pureit/busylight

Usage

Get supported devices:

const BusyLight = require('@pureit/busylight').BusyLight;
const devices = BusyLight.devices();

Connect to a device:

const busylight = new BusyLight(devices[0]);
busylight.connect();

Get device name:

name = busylight.device();

Get device tone names array:

tones = busylight.tones();

Get device tone durations array:

tones = busylight.durations();

Check if device is one of the devices from the list:

is_the_device = busylight.is(devices[0]);

Get device response

response = busylight.response();

Turn all off:

busylight.off();

Turn on red light:

busylight.light('ff0000');

Set intesity for light (0-100):

busylight.intesity(50);

Sound tone 4 with volume 3:

busylight.tone(4, 3);

Sound tone 5 once with volume 1:

duration_ms = busylight.once(5, 1);

Blink blue color, 0.5 sec (5 * 0.1s) on and 0.2 sec (2 * 0.1s) off:

busylight.blink('#000044', 5, 2);

Pulse green color:

busylight.pulse('#004400');

Alert with tone 2, volume 1, blinking red 0.5 sec (5 * 0.1s) on and 0.3 sec (3 * 0.1s) off

busylight.alert(2, 1, '#ff0000', true, 5, 3);

Alert with tone 3, volume 1, pulsing red

busylight.alert(3, 1, '#ff0000', false);

Send a program:

• dimmed red light for 1s (0x0A x 0.1s), off for 2s (0x14 x 0.1s), stop tone, repeat 3 times and jump to step 1
• dimmed green light for 1s, off for 1 sec, tone 5 with volume 2, repeat 4 times and jump to step 0

    busylight.program([
        {
            cmd: 'jump',
            cmdv: 1,
            repeat: 3,
            red: 0x05,
            green: 0x00,
            blue: 0x00,
            on: 0x0A,
            off: 0x14,
            audio: true,
            tone: -1,
            volume: -1
        },
        {
            cmd: 'jump',
            cmdv: 0,
            repeat: 4,
            red: 0x00,
            green: 0x05,
            blue: 0x00,
            on: 0x0A,
            off: 0x0A,
            audio: true,
            tone: 5,
            volume: 2
        }
    ]);
