LED automations
LED automations are ways to automatically control the 4 available LEDs in the Pioreactor. These LEDs can be used as a light source for photosynthetic microbes, influence the environment of the microbes, as additional sensors, or improve existing sensors.
Silent
Requires: None
The silent automation is the simplest automation: doing nothing. The automation will still "wake up" every duration
minutes, but does nothing.
Light/Dark cycle
Requires: up to 2 LEDs, in channels B and C.
This automation will turn the LEDs in channels B & C ON and OFF on a predetermined scheduale, specified by light_duration_hours
and dark_duration_hours
. The intensity of the LED is given by light_intensity
. The LEDs start ON. duration
is set to be 60 minutes.
