Title: LED-Wiz help
Post by: methodical on August 07, 2010, 09:49:39 pm

I've got my LED-Wiz all wired up... just using 3 outputs for the RGB Drive to change the color on my trackball. What software can I use to have the LED-Wiz start cycling through colors as soon as the computer is turned on?

I've created an animation with LED Blinky... but am a little confused as to how to have it automatically start the animation when the computer is turned on. Seems to only be settings to run animations when games are selected, etc.

You can create a batch file or vb script and run it from the startup folder. Here's the command to launch LEDBlinky and run the animation:

<path>\LEDBlinky\ledblinky.exe "<animation>.lwax"

Thanks a lot :-)

I'll try it out tonight.

So that worked well, but when I used Quick Sheller to auto-boot into Maximus Arcade, it bypasses the batch file. Any ways around this?

Actually, rather than use a batch file - you should configure LEDBlinky for MA and set the "FE Active Animation".
