Circuit board variations

You think there is any chance that the same pin-out numbers match on the new version of the board?

[ffraenz]

Yes there is!

This configuration worked for me:

• Disconnect the micro controller (1) from the circuit board by destroying the connections on one side or by removing it completely.
• Connect J1 (2) to GND
• Connect R4 (R) to GPIO4
• Connect R5 (G) to GPIO17
• Connect R6 (B) to GPIO18

That's great! Thanks so much for the quick reply!

@kennylmay May I use your photo of the new board to add this configuration to the README?

[kennylmay]

Sure thing. Worked great by the way. Thanks for your help!

I have a different version of the board. Any idea which pins I should use?

[ffraenz]

There is no color wheel on this control unit. Are you sure this is a multi-color version of Ikea Dioder?

[thormartin91]

Yes, it is @ffraenz. A push on the button changes color. Holding down the button activates different modes that loop through the colors.

And another Board Variation. Any idea which pins to use?

[ffraenz]

@thormartin91 @Ancient I guess someone needs to try out different configurations with the possible risk of losing the device. You may recognise similarities when comparing the two known board versions with the new ones. I'm rather working software-side, I can't give you safe advice on this.

@ffraenz Hi, i figured it out for my board Layout, maybe you could add it with your Markers, if someone else needs it.
