K7 Pro External control

[Ranjib]

Hi
I am using the k7 pro on my biocube and really not happy with the controller. From lack of features to sheer difficulty in programming it. Is there a way for you folks to at least share some information on the bluetooth protocol thats being used. I can build the controller my end. It does not need to be built by you folks. Or any other means of external control (like the A360 has 0-10V control port). I understand building an app or changing existing hardware is rather complicated process. But at least you can share the bluetooth protocol details and that way we can help ourselves

Very happy with the light unit, hardware overall. Its a great light. The controller is something thats really limiting this light's appeal.

Hey bud, it's not Bluetooth. I'll grab the link really quick. I cracked the controller open and already tried sniffing the Bluetooth connection.

@noopsyche would you be willing to release your Bluetooth API (services and characteristics) for hobbyist development? It would be an easier jump off point than me using a BLE sniffer and Wireshark to reverse engineer your connection between the slave and master. Someone will do it why not be...

thank you for the information. So this is a radio controlled. From my initial study, nrf2401 uses SPI like communication protocol. If theres a way to decode the commands, I can wire up arduino or Pi and then use nrf2401 or similar radio chips to control the lights

Any progress with this?
