You did put an leds per fan line in the code, so it would be easy to change that part. It looks like most of the effects would work fine as well since they all use the leds per fan code. That really sucks about the crash. I appreciate all the work you have put into this and cant wait to see what kind of things can be done with it! kubdotnet: Is it just me or does the program crash whenever you apply settings to the fans or strips? I have tried your latest version, and the first effect I tried on the strips was just a red rgb setting. It crashed but sent the settings and worked, but after that I couldnt not get it to take any other strip setting without doing it in the arduino serial monitor.

It was giving me errors because I was trying to use it while running it in debug. I have never used Visual Studio before so the zip file worked great. So far the biggest bug I see is that it crashes when you apply settings, but they do apply. All the settings I tried on the fans worked great. The strips did not work as well, I am assuming because the modes are different so the command does not match the name. The strips did take the settings that I applied, just not the right mode so it was not actually what I chose. Thank you both for all your great work so far! I enjoyed the ease of Link, but the possibilities are endless with this setup if you know how to use it.

Right now I am still using the lnp for power to the leds, I've been to lazy to solder. I de-pinned the data wire for the strips and fans and put them both in another lnp connector from an extension. plugged that into my arduino so that they were on pin 3 and 4 and it worked great. I plan on cleaning it up eventually but it works. So ya, more modes would be great on the strips! It looked like it wouldn't be too hard to make the modes in the code you have, I just dont know enough about the commands to figure it out yet.

That is great to know, in case I want to save a text file or something with the commands so I have that setup for later use. I have been playing with it some and there is so much you can do! Also, I currently have 6 hd120 fans, but I plan on adding 3-6 more in the future. What would the easiest way be for me to integrate these without buying another arduino?
