Unofficial port of the Glediator LED Matrix controlling software

Glediator3

Unofficial port (reverse engineer) of the Glediator LED Matrix controlling software, with some minor improvements so that:

• Serial Port connection works cross-platform.
• WiFi connectivity to an ESP32 is super simple with just a destination IP address required from the software.

How to use (via. WiFi)

1. Install the JAVA JRE onto your computer: https://jdk.java.net/14/

2. Load the Glediator3_TPM2_Net example sketch onto the ESP32 with the SSID and WiFi configured.

3. Make a note of the IP address assigned to the ESP32

4. Execute java -jar Glediator3-binary-XXXX.jar (from the releases directory)

5. Set the Matrix Size in the Software Options, then go into 'Output' and configure the correct destination IP address:

6. Then click 'Open Socket' to get things started. Glediator3 will start transmitting to the ESP32.

How to use (via. Serial Port - Slow)

1. Install the JAVA JRE onto your computer: https://jdk.java.net/14/
2. Execute java -jar Glediator3-binary-XXXX.jar (from the releases directory)
3. Connect to your Matrix_Panel via. Serial Port once having loaded 'Glediator3_TPM2_MatrixPanel' example onto it.

Note: The serial port will differ depending on your computer and what your Arduino / ESP32 is connected to.

4. Then click 'Serial Open' to get things started.
