WS281x LED Status offers plenty of customisable options so you can make the plugin fit your needs well. This pages will attempt to explain most of them, if they are not obvious.
LED Strip settings can be accessed from the settings page in a pop-up modal. Explained:
- Strip type: the kind of your strip. Currently only supporting WS2811/WS2812 types. For WS2811 there are options for different colour orders, use these if the colours aren't as you expect them.
- LED Pin: GPIO pin that the LED Strip is connected to. Only pin 10 is allowed, as that is the only pin that can be used without root access
- Frequency: Frequency used to drive the LEDs. 800,000hz (800Khz) should be suitable for most strips, only change if you know your strip takes a different frequency.
- LED channel: unsure
- DMA channel: Raspberry Pi DMA channel to use. Changing this can have disastrous effects, for example DMA 5 can corrupt the file system.
