Creating LED Presets

API Script

Upon completion of file uploads, the files are recognized in the SUNAPI API as Index numbers (1-5) in the top-to-bottom order they appear in the list. The API script format is in HTTP/HTTPS format and as follows:

http://<IP-ADDRESS>/stw-cgi/eventrules.cgi?msubmenu=ledpreset&action=control&LEDPresetIndex=1

In the script, replace <IP ADDRESS> with the address of the Audio Beacon. The Index number is the LED Preset number to be played.

To test this command, copy/paste into a web browser.

Using the API Command in WAVE

To create an HTTP(S) command in WAVE:

1. Log in to WAVE.
   
   
2. Navigate to System Administration > Event Rules > Add new rule. In the example, a soft trigger is created on a camera that will trigger the LED.

   Action: Do HTTP(S) request
   Interval: Select interval of time event is not to repeat
   HTTP(S) URL: Paste the script
