LED control on signage devices

Usage

To control the color you can send device-specific commands to you the device. You can do this through Sensor events, Page change events, Datasource events, and Time-based events.

Here you have to set the Action type to Static sensor or device event and the Type to Other command and in the Value field, you have to insert the command. You can leave the Sensor id blank.

The meaning of the variables in the command:

deviceType:
This is the device that we want to send the command to. It can be QBIC, MIMO, PHILIPS, and PRODVX

ledLocation:
Sets which LEDs will be changed (Only works on the Qbic tablet because that is the only one with 2 LEDs) This variable can be "FRONT", "SIDE", or "FRONT_SIDE" if you would like to control both LEDs at the same time.

ledColor:
With this, we can set the color in hexadecimal format.
To turn off the LED, simply set the ledColor to "000000" (black).
