With manually setting > brightness? Are the pattern generators independend for the LEDs? With depending on what mode user selected. If user set the raise/high/fall/low time values, that means the LED will work at breathing mode, and we set brightness to turn on/off the breathing mode LED. Yes, they are independent for each LED. > > Can you generate white breathing pattern? If so, how? Yes, firstly we should set the raise/high/fall/low time values for red LED, blue LED and green LED (each LED time values are same), then set one brightness value to turn on the red LED, blue LED and green LED. > > How do you select between normal and breathing modes? As I explained, when user set the raise/high/fall/low time values, that means user selects the breathing mode of the LED. Otherwise the LED works at normal mode. > > I'd specify times in miliseconds or something, this is way too > hardware specific. But our hardware specification defines magic numbers, not times values in milliseconds. So I think we should follow our specification's definition, and user should also follow the same rules. > > Now... functionality like this is common between many LED > controllers.
