# This file lets you send a series of light effect commands with customizable timings over IR by way of an Arduino

# connected to this computer running one of the PixMob_Transmitter sketches in the arduino_sender folder. Theoretically

# you could program this to be in sync with a song or something.

# It is recommended you familiar yourself with the "demo_single_effect.py" script before trying this.

# This "_advanced" version of "demo_multiple_effects.py" allows for transmission of simple color commands repeatedly

# so bracelets can hold colors without duplicating entries.

# Set the ALL_CAPS parameters below and run the script. Also set ARDUINO_SERIAL_PORT and

# ARDUINO_BAUD_RATE in python_tools/config.py

# List of of all effects you want to display, in order. Each entry has the effect name, optional tail code, and

# duration to wait before sending next effect. Note that some effects are long, and the bracelets might not respond

# to an effect until the current one is finished, so don't set your durations to less than the time it takes for the

# bracelets to show the effects.

# "hold_with_repeated_send" can be used to specify whether or not simple colors should be held for the full duration of

# the effect entry

# Setting "main_effect" to None will just add a delay with nothing sent
