MatrixWeb

Welcome to the MatrixWeb Wiki, your resource hub for navigating the ins and outs of MatrixWeb – the open-source LED matrix control software. Operating through the USM protocol, MatrixWeb enables you to control your LED matrices seamlessly. For detailed information about the USM protocol, visit our dedicated page here. From installation tips to practical usage guides, this wiki is designed to assist you in making the most of MatrixWeb's capabilities. Whether you're a curious hobbyist or a developer exploring customization options, the wiki offers straightforward information to help you effectively manage and optimize your LED matrix displays. Dive in, learn, and make your MatrixWeb experience truly yours.

The controlling is splitted into two parts:

Microcontroller Functionality

The microcontroller forms a direct connection with the LED matrix, seamlessly supporting the USM protocol. This functionality allows it to receive fundamental commands such as playing GIFs and responding with essential information like size details.

Main Controller Operations

Central to this repository's purpose is managing the LED matrix, or even multiple matrices. Additionally, it establishes a connection to the internet, facilitating data retrieval, such as weather updates. This data is utilized to generate GIFs, subsequently transmitted to the microcontroller for display.
