Knowledge Base

The RGB Mixer is used to control RGB lighting by mixing red, green, blue and white color values.

Each color channel can be adjusted individually, allowing the final light color to be created by combining different levels of Red, Green, and Blue. For example, increasing only the red channel creates red light, while combining red and green creates yellow tones.

Mixer Settings

If some devices cause issues with correct coloring, we can also enable Scaling. Scaling sets the output colour value from 0 - 100, otherwise the colour value scales from 0 - 255. In the RGB visualisation panel users can use 4 sliders to get the color they want. End color is displayed under the sliders.

Color Setter

Selecting any of the favourite colors allows us to pre-define the color and allows us to set the color without the use the sliders in the client.

When selecting the color, a colour wheel appears that allows us to set the desired color.

There are also preset colors that can be selected. Currently desired color is also visible under selected color.

Visualizaton settings

Dragging and dropping the RGB mixer task in the visualization allows the clients to control the color using bOS Client.

By default, white channel is disabled and only RGB control is allowed.

To enable white channel, select the RGB mixer in the theme in bOS Config and enable white channel.

The client can then select the RGB mixer and either use the color wheel or the sliders in the bottom to control the color.

Separate white channel is the bottom slider. Desired color is visible at the bottom as well.
