Is it possible to connect 2-3 Nodemcu and controll with PC? #278
Comments
The easiest way is probably to direct broadcast the data on your subnet. This may be a little problematic though due to the many data packets that spam every devices connection. |
I had the same problem and tried the same route - I would not recommend |
Wow that is a good Idea! Maybe I try to implement this into my setup :D |
@VladlenKaveev This is similar to #272 and a number of people have asked for multi-client support. I'm mostly on here for support and troubleshooting and I don't really have the python knowledge to add these features but if anyone's willing to submit a PR I'd definitely consider. |
@joeybab3 Hey! I can connect 2 device, but i need to run 2 .py programs. Now, i try to add many devices, but i too don't have the python knowledge. Now I'm at the stage of the second graph and 2 Nodemcu is working, but i cant change a frequency to each device. If I don’t succeed, then I will have to use several windows :( |
@joeybab3 For simultaneous work, you need to create a schedule for each device. But in the code the author use pygraph and idn how can edit it to pyqt5 gui to add a tabs with device 1, 2 and etc |
@gaijinsr If i run 5 windows .py program, and use 5 Nodemcu my network is down? I try to edit code and add 5 device in 1 windows, but its so hard for me :( |
@VladlenKaveev try the changes in #201 I haven't been able to test them myself but intuitively it seems like it might work |
@joeybab3 https://cloud.vspace.one/s/TTazm83FFjrR83m is not work( |
@joeybab3 I need to change frequency in Device 1 to 0-200 and Device 2 400-600 for example. |
@VladlenKaveev Adding devices is easy, see attachment. Sending data to a couple of devices is no problem, but multicasting the data to every device on the network (which we are not doing) is not a good idea on a WLAN. |
@gaijinsr I'm sure there are lots of better ways to do this but not many that don't require rewriting the core |
@gaijinsr Hey! I run a Systematic LEDs today, on Mac I had a lot of mistakes, but still managed to run. How many device you try to connect on one wi fi network? Now i have only 2, but i need to connect 5-6 devices. What do you think about it? Sometimes i have a microphone error, but i think i fix it. This project so good for me, i try ledfx and wled, but Systematic LEDs fits best :3 |
Regarding multiple devices, LedFx is made specifically for this! No
multicast, connect as many devices as you like. It's originally based on
this project, but has been taken much further now. Loads of effects, nice
UI, so on.

If you're having trouble installing (dependencies are a pain), feel free to
ask for help on the discord server. Usually someone's around to lend a hand.

@VladlenKaveev I have been running 6 devices: no problem at all. Also, you could lower the FPS to 30. |
@not-matt I tried ledfx, but it seemed to me that switching effects is very slow. I'm doing a light party project in Russia and I want to use 5-6 devices and quickly change effects through a PC. It seemed to me that the Systematic Leds interface is faster and easier to understand and add own buttons and effects. I think that ledfx more convenient for home use. Thanks for the answer, be sure to join in discord. |
Still searching for a solution to running 5-7 controllers with this. |
Your project is wonderful! Everything works fine, but can I connect a few Nodemcu and control them all? I do not much work with Python, but if there is such an opportunity, then I will try to do it! Thx 😊
