Lua script RGB

Hi guys,

I have a customer that wants their dmx lights to run through the NAC on a scene. They require just a loop scene of the transition of the rgb colours.

I am unfamiliar with lua language to a large degree.

Does anyone have a basic script template of a loop scene for rgb that I can play around with?

Thanks!

 

Hi peterauto.

I did something similar several years ago with RGB LED strip controlled via DALI. I created 7 x Scenes (Off, Red, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Purple) mixing the RGB colours and fade times, and the Script Triggers the scenes. It's been while since I looked at that code and am a bit rusty on LUA myself but this may be of some help.

The 1st LUA Script below is a simple version. The only thing is with this is that it will run this script is running it will need to complete all colours in order when you want it to stop.


Cbus LUA Script for RGB Auto Colour Change

while (GetCBusState(0,56,1) == true) do

SetTriggerLevel(0,255) -- Red

os.sleep(30)

SetTriggerLevel(0,204) -- Yellow

os.sleep(30)

SetTriggerLevel(0,242) -- Green

os.sleep(30)

SetTriggerLevel(0,178) -- Cyan

os.sleep(30)

SetTriggerLevel(0,229) -- Blue

os.sleep(30)

SetTriggerLevel(0,191) -- Purple

os.sleep(30)

end


The 2nd is a little more complicated but will stop the script when the colour changing script is stopped anyway part though the script.

--This sets the timer. Variable input determines the seconds this will pause the script for.

-- If a scene change occurs a true is returned within 1 second. Otherwise will take variable

-- seconds to run.

function RGBTimer(seconds)

local i = 0
while (i < seconds) do

os.sleep(1)

i = i + 1

if (GetCBusState(0,56,7) == false) then

return true

end

end

return false

end

while (GetCBusState(0,56,7) == true) do

SetTriggerLevel(9,255) -- Red

local x = RGBTimer(4)

if (x == true) then

break

end

SetTriggerLevel(9,204) -- Yellow

x = RGBTimer(4)

if (x == true) then

break
end

SetTriggerLevel(9,242) -- Green

x = RGBTimer(4)

if (x == true) then

break
end

SetTriggerLevel(9,178) -- Cyan

x = RGBTimer(4)

if (x == true) then

break
end

SetTriggerLevel(9,229) -- Blue

x = RGBTimer(4)
if (x == true) then

break

end

SetTriggerLevel(9,191) -- Purple

x = RGBTimer(4)

if (x == true) then

break
end


end
