This is zip contains the binary for the monochrome dimmable light. The binaries are available in zipped format:ĭownload: Light_DimmableLight_JN5168.

I created two binaries, both of them use the JN5168 on board timers to generate PWM signals required to drive the LED’s. UPDATE: I moved all the downloads and connection info to a new page: ZLL – tl dr So, I modded the board by breaking the TX and RC traces and soldered wires to the correct pins en solve the bug.Ĭompleted board with TX/RX bug corrected The binaries Now, this is something I will forget at some point and it will cost me valuable time before I will realise this was indeed the case. Also, there is a bug in this board, the TX and RX are reversed. I changed the header for connecting with the FTDI to be male, this way I can plug the FTDI connector directly to the module without additional wiring. To the next board I made two small changes. The first board was killed in action after accidentally powering it with 5v instead of 3.3v. I ordered the breakouts here, and soldered them according to the guide here. I decided to order some JN5168 modules and breakout boards, which also turned out to be a bit cheaper. Since the Mesh Bee’s do not expose all pins of the JN5168, and I was having some trouble loading firmware (turned out to be a bad UartSBee). JN5186 module connected to Philips Hue using custom color light firmware, driving an RGB LED I will open source the entire project with a future post. In this post I describe the hardware, software and process to run the custom binaries ( download here) yourself. Both binaries use the PWM output of the JN5168 for controlling the levels, which makes them suitable for driving led’s directly or through an external driver.

Using the NXP Light Link demo project as starting point, I managed to created two custom binaries, one for a monochrome dimmable light and one for a dimmable color light. For the past few weeks I have been doing just that, creating custom firmware that connects to a Philips Hue. In my previous posts I described how I was able to connect a Mesh Bee with cloned firmware to a Philips Hue and how the cloned firmware provided me with the key to connecting custom firmware to my Philips Hue. Pushed the sources to GitHub, available here I put all the relevant info on this page, and I will keep it updated. Now supporting Multi Endpoint Lights (RGB is coming).
