# RGB Lighting
-
+QMK has the ability to control RGB LEDs attached to your keyboard. This is commonly called *underglow*, due to the LEDs often being mounted on the bottom of the keyboard, producing a nice diffused effect when combined with a translucent case.
-## RGB Under Glow Mod
+![Planck with RGB Underglow](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/3774a7fcdab5544fc787f4c200be05fcd417e31f/keyboards/planck/keymaps/yang/planck-with-rgb-underglow.jpg)
-![Planck with RGB Underglow](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/master/keyboards/planck/keymaps/yang/planck-with-rgb-underglow.jpg)
+Some keyboards come with RGB LEDs preinstalled. Others must have them installed after the fact. See the [Hardware Modification](#hardware-modification) section for information on adding RGB lighting to your keyboard.
+
+Currently QMK supports the following addressable LEDs on AVR microcontrollers (however, the white LED in RGBW variants is not supported):
+
+ * WS2811, WS2812, WS2812B, WS2812C, etc.
+ * SK6812, SK6812MINI, SK6805
+
+These LEDs are called "addressable" because instead of using a wire per color, each LED contains a small microchip that understands a special protocol sent over a single wire. The chip passes on the remaining data to the next LED, allowing them to be chained together. In this way, you can easily control the color of the individual LEDs.
+
+## Usage
+
+On keyboards with onboard RGB LEDs, it is usually enabled by default. If it is not working for you, check that your `rules.mk` includes the following:
+
+```make
+RGBLIGHT_ENABLE = yes
+```
+
+At minimum you must define the data pin your LED strip is connected to, and the number of LEDs in the strip, in your `config.h`. If your keyboard has onboard RGB LEDs, and you are simply creating a keymap, you usually won't need to modify these.
+
+|Define |Description |
+|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+|`RGB_DI_PIN` |The pin connected to the data pin of the LEDs |
+|`RGBLED_NUM` |The number of LEDs connected |
+|`RGBLED_SPLIT` |(Optional) For split keyboards, the number of LEDs connected on each half directly wired to `RGB_DI_PIN` |
+
+Then you should be able to use the keycodes below to change the RGB lighting to your liking.
+
+### Color Selection
+
+QMK uses [Hue, Saturation, and Value](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV) to select colors rather than RGB. The color wheel below demonstrates how this works.
+
+
+
+Changing the **Hue** cycles around the circle.
+Changing the **Saturation** moves between the inner and outer sections of the wheel, affecting the intensity of the color.
+Changing the **Value** sets the overall brightness.
+
+## Keycodes
+
+|Key |Aliases |Description |
+|-------------------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
+|`RGB_TOG` | |Toggle RGB lighting on or off |
+|`RGB_MODE_FORWARD` |`RGB_MOD` |Cycle through modes, reverse direction when Shift is held |
+|`RGB_MODE_REVERSE` |`RGB_RMOD`|Cycle through modes in reverse, forward direction when Shift is held|

+|`RGB_HUD` | |Decrease hue |
+|`RGB_SAI` | |Increase saturation |
+|`RGB_SAD` | |Decrease saturation |

+
+## Configuration
+
+Your RGB lighting can be configured by placing these `#define`s in your `config.h`:
+
+|Define |Default |Description |
+|---------------------|-------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+|`RGBLIGHT_HUE_STEP` |`10` |The number of steps to cycle through the hue by |
+|`RGBLIGHT_SAT_STEP` |`17` |The number of steps to increment the saturation by |
+|`RGBLIGHT_VAL_STEP` |`17` |The number of steps to increment the brightness by |
+|`RGBLIGHT_LIMIT_VAL` |`255` |The maximum brightness level |
+|`RGBLIGHT_SLEEP` |*Not defined*|If defined, the RGB lighting will be switched off when the host goes to sleep|
+|`RGBLIGHT_SPLIT` |*Not defined*|If defined, synchronization functionality for split keyboards is added|
+
+## Effects and Animations
+
+Not only can this lighting be whatever color you want,
+if `RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_xxxx` or `RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS` is defined, you also have a number of animation modes at your disposal:
+
+|Mode number symbol |Additional number |Description |
+|-----------------------------|-------------------|---------------------------------------|
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_STATIC_LIGHT` | *None* |Solid color (this mode is always enabled) |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_BREATHING` | 0,1,2,3 |Solid color breathing |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_RAINBOW_MOOD` | 0,1,2 |Cycling rainbow |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_RAINBOW_SWIRL`| 0,1,2,3,4,5 |Swirling rainbow |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_SNAKE` | 0,1,2,3,4,5 |Snake |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_KNIGHT` | 0,1,2 |Knight |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_CHRISTMAS` | *None* |Christmas |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_STATIC_GRADIENT`| 0,1,..,9 |Static gradient |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_RGB_TEST` | *None* |RGB Test |
+|`RGBLIGHT_MODE_ALTERNATING` | *None* |Alternating |
+
+Check out [this video](https://youtube.com/watch?v=VKrpPAHlisY) for a demonstration.
+
+Note: For versions older than 0.6.117, The mode numbers were written directly. In `quantum/rgblight.h` there is a contrast table between the old mode number and the current symbol.
+
+### Effect and Animation Toggles
+
+Use these defines to add or remove animations from the firmware. When you are running low on flash space, it can be helpful to disable animations you are not using.
+
+|Define |Default |Description |
+|------------------------------------|-------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+|`RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS` |*Not defined*|Enable all additional animation modes. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_ALTERNATING` |*Not defined*|Enable alternating animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_BREATHING` |*Not defined*|Enable breathing animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_CHRISTMAS` |*Not defined*|Enable christmas animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_KNIGHT` |*Not defined*|Enable knight animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_RAINBOW_MOOD` |*Not defined*|Enable rainbow mood animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_RAINBOW_SWIRL` |*Not defined*|Enable rainbow swirl animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_RGB_TEST` |*Not defined*|Enable RGB test animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_SNAKE` |*Not defined*|Enable snake animation mode. |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_STATIC_GRADIENT` |*Not defined*|Enable static gradient mode. |
+
+### Effect and Animation Settings
+
+The following options are used to tweak the various animations:
+
+|Define |Default |Description |
+|------------------------------------|-------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_BREATHE_CENTER` |*Not defined*|If defined, used to calculate the curve for the breathing animation. Valid values are 1.0 to 2.7 |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_BREATHE_MAX` |`255` |The maximum brightness for the breathing mode. Valid values are 1 to 255 |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_CHRISTMAS_INTERVAL`|`1000` |How long to wait between light changes for the "Christmas" animation, in milliseconds|
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_CHRISTMAS_STEP` |`2` |The number of LEDs to group the red/green colors by for the "Christmas" animation |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_KNIGHT_LED_NUM` |`RGBLED_NUM` |The number of LEDs to have the "Knight" animation travel |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_KNIGHT_LENGTH` |`3` |The number of LEDs to light up for the "Knight" animation |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_KNIGHT_OFFSET` |`0` |The number of LEDs to start the "Knight" animation from the start of the strip by |
+|`RGBLIGHT_RAINBOW_SWIRL_RANGE` |`255` |Range adjustment for the rainbow swirl effect to get different swirls |
+|`RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_SNAKE_LENGTH` |`4` |The number of LEDs to light up for the "Snake" animation |
+
+### Example Usage to Reduce Memory Footprint
+ 1. Remove `RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS` from `config.h`.
+ 1. Selectively add the animations you want to enable. The following would enable two animations and save about 4KiB:
+
+```diff
+ #undef RGBLED_NUM
+-#define RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS
++#define RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_STATIC_GRADIENT
++#define RGBLIGHT_EFFECT_RAINBOW_SWIRL
+ #define RGBLED_NUM 12
+ #define RGBLIGHT_HUE_STEP 8
+ #define RGBLIGHT_SAT_STEP 8
+```
+
+### Animation Speed
+
+You can also modify the speeds that the different modes animate at:
Here is a quick demo on Youtube (with NPKC KC60) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKrpPAHlisY).
-For this mod, you need an unused pin wiring to DI of WS2812 strip. After wiring the VCC, GND, and DI, you can enable the underglow in your Makefile.
+```c
+// How long (in milliseconds) to wait between animation steps for each of the "Solid color breathing" animations
+const uint8_t RGBLED_BREATHING_INTERVALS[] PROGMEM = {30, 20, 10, 5};
+
+// How long (in milliseconds) to wait between animation steps for each of the "Cycling rainbow" animations
+const uint8_t RGBLED_RAINBOW_MOOD_INTERVALS[] PROGMEM = {120, 60, 30};
+
+// How long (in milliseconds) to wait between animation steps for each of the "Swirling rainbow" animations
+const uint8_t RGBLED_RAINBOW_SWIRL_INTERVALS[] PROGMEM = {100, 50, 20};
+
+// How long (in milliseconds) to wait between animation steps for each of the "Snake" animations
+const uint8_t RGBLED_SNAKE_INTERVALS[] PROGMEM = {100, 50, 20};
+
+// How long (in milliseconds) to wait between animation steps for each of the "Knight" animations
+const uint8_t RGBLED_KNIGHT_INTERVALS[] PROGMEM = {127, 63, 31};
+
+// These control which hues are selected for each of the "Static gradient" modes
+const uint8_t RGBLED_GRADIENT_RANGES[] PROGMEM = {255, 170, 127, 85, 64};
+```
+
+## Functions

+rgblight_sethsv_range(HSV_WHITE, 0, 6);
+```
+
+These are defined in [`rgblight_list.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/rgblight_list.h). Feel free to add to this list!
+
+
+## Changing the order of the LEDs
+
+If you want to make the logical order of LEDs different from the electrical connection order, you can do this by defining the `RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP` macro in your `config.h`.
+
+Normally, the contents of the LED buffer are output to the LEDs in the same order.
+
+
+By defining `RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP` as in the example below, you can specify the LED with addressing in reverse order of the electrical connection order.
+
+```c
+// config.h
+
+#define RGBLED_NUM 4
+#define RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP { 3, 2, 1, 0 }
+
+```
+
+
+For keyboards that use the RGB LEDs as a backlight for each key, you can also define it as in the example below.
+
+```c
+// config.h
- RGBLIGHT_ENABLE = yes
+#define RGBLED_NUM 30
-In order to use the underglow animation functions, you need to have `#define RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS` in your `config.h`.
+/* RGB LED Conversion macro from physical array to electric array */
+#define LED_LAYOUT( \
+ L00, L01, L02, L03, L04, L05, \
+ L10, L11, L12, L13, L14, L15, \
+ L20, L21, L22, L23, L24, L25, \
+ L30, L31, L32, L33, L34, L35, \
+ L40, L41, L42, L43, L44, L45 ) \
+ { \
+ L05, L04, L03, L02, L01, L00, \
+ L10, L11, L12, L13, L14, L15, \
+ L25, L24, L23, L22, L21, L20, \
+ L30, L31, L32, L33, L34, L35, \
+ L46, L45, L44, L43, L42, L41 \
+ }
-Please add the following options into your config.h, and set them up according your hardware configuration. These settings are for the `F4` pin by default:
+/* RGB LED logical order map */
+/* Top->Bottom, Right->Left */
+#define RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP LED_LAYOUT( \
+ 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 0, \
+ 26, 21, 16, 11, 6, 1, \
+ 27, 22, 17, 12, 7, 2, \
+ 28, 23, 18, 13, 8, 3, \
+ 29, 24, 19, 14, 9, 4 )
- #define RGB_DI_PIN F4 // The pin your RGB strip is wired to
- #define RGBLIGHT_ANIMATIONS // Require for fancier stuff (not compatible with audio)
- #define RGBLED_NUM 14 // Number of LEDs
- #define RGBLIGHT_HUE_STEP 10
- #define RGBLIGHT_SAT_STEP 17
- #define RGBLIGHT_VAL_STEP 17
+```
+## Clipping Range
-You'll need to edit `RGB_DI_PIN` to the pin you have your `DI` on your RGB strip wired to.
+Using the `rgblight_set_clipping_range()` function, you can prepare more buffers than the actual number of LEDs, and output some of the buffers to the LEDs. This is useful if you want the split keyboard to treat left and right LEDs as logically contiguous.
-The firmware supports 5 different light effects, and the color (hue, saturation, brightness) can be customized in most effects. To control the underglow, you need to modify your keymap file to assign those functions to some keys/key combinations. For details, please check this keymap. `keyboards/planck/keymaps/yang/keymap.c`
+You can set the Clipping Range by executing the following code.
-### WS2812 Wiring
+```c
+// some soruce
+ rgblight_set_clipping_range(3, 4);
+```
+
-![WS2812 Wiring](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/master/keyboards/planck/keymaps/yang/WS2812-wiring.jpg)
+In addition to setting the Clipping Range, you can use `RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP` together.
-Please note the USB port can only supply a limited amount of power to the keyboard (500mA by standard, however, modern computer and most usb hubs can provide 700+mA.). According to the data of NeoPixel from Adafruit, 30 WS2812 LEDs require a 5V 1A power supply, LEDs used in this mod should not more than 20.
+```c
+// config.h
+#define RGBLED_NUM 8
+#define RGBLIGHT_LED_MAP { 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 }
-## RGB Lighting Keycodes
+// some soruce
+ rgblight_set_clipping_range(3, 4);
+```
+
-This controls the RGB Lighting functionality. Most keyboards use WS2812 (and compatible) LEDs for underlight or case lighting.
+## Hardware Modification

+If your keyboard lacks onboard underglow LEDs, you may often be able to solder on an RGB LED strip yourself. You will need to find an unused pin to wire to the data pin of your LED strip. Some keyboards may break out unused pins from the MCU to make soldering easier. The other two pins, VCC and GND, must also be connected to the appropriate power pins.
