CMStorm LED Backlight

This app simply turns on the backlight of a CMStorm Devastator keyboard. Forked from Apple's demo code.

Instructions:

  • Download
  • open terminal and run 'chmod +x ~/Downloads/led-backlight-cmstorm'
  • double-click the app

Install script:

Open terminal and paste the following:

curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gholker/led-backlight-cmstorm/master/install.sh | sh

Configuration

Current version will now prompt on first run whether the lights are good. When you say y the configuration is saved. If you want to try different values then delete the config and run it again.

Example:

found 3 devices
{...}/led-backlight-cmstorm.cfg not found. Cycling through possible values.
pass = 0.
is this value good? (y/n)
n
pass = 1.
is this value good? (y/n)
