Quick Start FXSOS

Getting started with FX-SaberOS is easy, that was our leading principle from the beginning!!! Prior to upload code to your Arduino compatible board (DIYino, home brew, etc.) there are a few simple steps to tailor the FX-SaberOS code to fit to your saber prop.

Saber hardware config

Goto the tab Config_HW.h.

1. First you need to specify which kind of board you are using. Currently the DIYino Prime V1, the Stardust V2 and the Stardust V3 are supported. Select Prime if using a home-brew board.

#define DIYINO_PRIME or #define DIYINO_STARDUST_V2 or #define DIYINO_STARDUST_V3 Comment out with // the option you do not need.

2. Define how many buttons you have. Currently two setups are supported, a single button setup with #define SINGLEBUTTON or a setup using two buttons (aka 2-buttons) by commenting out the line like this //#define SINGLEBUTTON

3. Next step is to specify what kind of blade you are using in your saber prop: #define LEDSTRINGS or #define STAR_LED or #define PIXELBLADE (comment out those options not needed, leave only one!)

4. In case you are using neopixel blade, define the number of pixels in your blade:

#define NUMPIXELS 60
