Hardware/LEDs
This page has been labelled for deletion. The given reason is: Duplicate of the LEDS and backlight page. This normally means the page title is a bad one, and the content has been moved somewhere better. If a page title is vaguely meaningful, the page should perhaps be a redirect, or hold a small summary for historical interest instead. If you disagree with its deletion, please explain why on its talk page. The page should now be empty apart from this message (as per procedure). The page history shows what used to be on this page, and allows people to rescue an old revision. We may decide to do this, but otherwise a wiki 'sysop' user can delete this page more permanently at some point. In the meantime we should fix any pages linking to here. |
Pandora LEDs
Status LEDs
Meaning of the LEDs from left to right according to gfrancisdev.
Left LED group

Controlling LEDs
Available through LED and brightness classes:
/sys/class/leds/*
LED brightness can be controlled through those files. Power and charger LEDs have variable brightness control, others are on/off only.
Note: SD card LEDs use SD cart power supplies, so those must be enabled for those LEDs to work (they are enabled when cards are inserted).
config
Kept in /etc/default/leds (LEDs)
Note: driver allows lower brightness than you can set using keyboard controls, because some units start to flicker on lowest brightness. This can be changed in /usr/pandora/scripts/op_bright.sh .
