When open up Lelight!RA, you can see 3 wires on the canvas.
It shows you how many array setup you have.
You can change to 6 or 12.
With this tool, you can draw symmetric pattern easily.
Click on simulation.
You can change the colors
and the speed.
You can see from the simulation, the pattern is surrending a circle and it's "NOT fixed".
This is because wireless wheel lights are designed for symmetric patterns
NOT fixed patterns.
Move to a new slide.
In this design, we will show you how to make a reverse image.
Click on the left square.
OK
Bring the "eraser" up.
Draw a square.
simulate
Now, you have just finished to draw a "gear wheel".
Move to a new slide.
You can also copy slides from other project.
Let's go to OPEN
select DEFAULT
These slides are identical to your wheel lights when first shipped out.
Select the first slide.
COPY
Go back to our project.
PASTE
Let's make another copy.
COPY
Here, you want to select a new slide.
Let's click here.
PASTE
It's very convenient to work on multiple projects the same time.
You can share your project with your friends.
To save your project, go to File
Save as
Type the file name "test1"
This is where your "test1" project will be saved.
It's under c:\Anvii\Lelight!RA\file
click Save
As you can see here, the file name has changed to "test1"
and there's no star next to the file.
It means you have save your file correctly.
You can download images from the internet.
Unfortunately, not all images are capable to display on wheel lights.
"clip art" is one category which has the most available pictures to choose.
PNG format has the least background noise.
If you use other formats, it may require extra work to fix your images.
Select on 1 new slide.
Here are 2 images we download from the internet.
Drag the flower to the canvas.
Zoom out
Position to the center.
Resize
cick on PEN
Okay
The image pattern is different than the pattern we download from the internet.
This is because the array setup is to 12.
Let's change it to None.
Undo
Try again
Now, it looks better.
Let's go to simulation.
Great!
Every time when you make a new design. You need to go through the simulation process.
To make sure the patterns can be shown on your wheel lights.
I'm going to demonstrate another failure design for your wheel lights.
Let's select a new slide.
Drag the butterfly.
Resize
Okay
It looks good on your canvas.
Let's make a simulation.
But it looks bad on your simulation.
This means it's not able to be shown or to be seen on your wheel lights.
This is not a good design.
Let's click on the next slide.
Instead of drawing on the canvas pixel by pixel.
You can use some other program to draw your design.
Such as Windows Paint, Illustrator, Photoshop, or PhotoImpact.
Let's undo this.
Click on Windows Paint.
Draw one diamond.
Crop the diamond.
Save on the desktop.
Let's drag the diamond to the canvas.
Use the array setup to 3.
Simulation
Cick on next slide.
You can also design text for your wheel lights.
Click on text tool.
Select a font style.
The best array setup for text display is 3.
Simulate
Base on different speed.
The text will have different effect.
Click on next slide.
You can change the display sequence for each slide.
Each slide lasts for 4 seconds.
If you need to get a longer display time.
You can duplicate the same pattern.
You can update every slides or choose your favorite slides.
Before click on the connection button.
Bring one wheel light next to USB dongle.
Cick on connection.
The transmission time for each slide is 6 seconds.
When finished, this dialogue box will be closed.
Don't forget to update 2 other wheel lights.
Otherwise your new design patterns will be hard to see.
