# RGB Matrix Lighting :id=rgb-matrix-lighting

This feature allows you to use RGB LED matrices driven by external drivers. It hooks into the RGBLIGHT system so you can use the same keycodes as RGBLIGHT to control it.

If you want to use single color LED's you should use the [LED Matrix Subsystem](feature_led_matrix.md) instead.

## Driver configuration :id=driver-configuration
---
### IS31FL3731 :id=is31fl3731

There is basic support for addressable RGB matrix lighting with the I2C IS31FL3731 RGB controller. To enable it, add this to your `rules.mk`:

```makefile
RGB_MATRIX_ENABLE = IS31FL3731
```

Configure the hardware via your `config.h`:

```c
// This is a 7-bit address, that gets left-shifted and bit 0
// set to 0 for write, 1 for read (as per I2C protocol)
// The address will vary depending on your wiring:
// 0b1110100 AD <-> GND
// 0b1110111 AD <-> VCC
// 0b1110101 AD <-> SCL
// 0b1110110 AD <-> SDA
#define DRIVER_ADDR_1 0b1110100
#define DRIVER_ADDR_2 0b1110110

#define DRIVER_COUNT 2
#define DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL 25
#define DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL 24
#define DRIVER_LED_TOTAL (DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL)
```

!> Note the parentheses, this is so when `DRIVER_LED_TOTAL` is used in code and expanded, the values are added together before any additional math is applied to them. As an example, `rand() % (DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL)` will give very different results than `rand() % DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL + DRIVER_2_LED_TOTAL`.

Currently only 2 drivers are supported, but it would be trivial to support all 4 combinations.

Define these arrays listing all the LEDs in your `<keyboard>.c`:

```c
const is31_led g_is31_leds[DRIVER_LED_TOTAL] = {
/* Refer to IS31 manual for these locations
 *   driver
 *   |  R location
 *   |  |      G location
 *   |  |      |      B location
 *   |  |      |      | */
    {0, C1_3,  C2_3,  C3_3},
    ....
}
```

Where `Cx_y` is the location of the LED in the matrix defined by [the datasheet](http://www.issi.com/WW/pdf/31FL3731.pdf) and the header file `drivers/issi/is31fl3731.h`. The `driver` is the index of the driver you defined in your `config.h` (`0` or `1` right now).

---
### IS31FL3733/IS31FL3737 :id=is31fl3733is31fl3737

!> For the IS31FL3737, replace all instances of `IS31FL3733` below with `IS31FL3737`.

There is basic support for addressable RGB matrix lighting with the I2C IS31FL3733 RGB controller. To enable it, add this to your `rules.mk`:

```makefile
RGB_MATRIX_ENABLE = IS31FL3733
```

Configure the hardware via your `config.h`:

```c
// This is a 7-bit address, that gets left-shifted and bit 0
// set to 0 for write, 1 for read (as per I2C protocol)
// The address will vary depending on your wiring:
// 00 <-> GND
// 01 <-> SCL
// 10 <-> SDA
// 11 <-> VCC
// ADDR1 represents A1:A0 of the 7-bit address.
// ADDR2 represents A3:A2 of the 7-bit address.
// The result is: 0b101(ADDR2)(ADDR1)
#define DRIVER_ADDR_1 0b1010000
#define DRIVER_ADDR_2 0b1010000 // this is here for compliancy reasons.

#define DRIVER_COUNT 2
#define DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL 64
#define DRIVER_LED_TOTAL DRIVER_1_LED_TOTAL
```

Currently only a single drivers is supported, but it would be trivial to support all 4 combinations. For now define `DRIVER_ADDR_2` as `DRIVER_ADDR_1`

Define these arrays listing all the LEDs in your `<keyboard>.c`:

```c
const is31_led g_is31_leds[DRIVER_LED_TOTAL] = {
/* Refer to IS31 manual for these locations
 *   driver
 *   |  R location
 *   |  |       G location
 *   |  |       |       B location
 *   |  |       |       | */
    {0, B_1,    A_1,    C_1},
    ....
}
```

Where `X_Y` is the location of the LED in the matrix defined by [the datasheet](http://www.issi.com/WW/pdf/31FL3733.pdf) and the header file `drivers/issi/is31fl3733.h`. The `driver` is the index of the driver you defined in your `config.h` (Only `0` right now).

---

### WS2812 :id=ws2812

There is basic support for addressable RGB matrix lighting with a WS2811/WS2812{a,b,c} addressable LED strand. To enable it, add this to your `rules.mk`:

```makefile
RGB_MATRIX_ENABLE = WS2812
```

Configure the hardware via your `config.h`:

```c
// The pin connected to the data pin of the LEDs
#define RGB_DI_PIN D7
// The number of LEDs connected
#define DRIVER_LED_TOTAL 70
```

---

From this point forward the configuration is the same for all the drivers. The `led_config_t` struct provides a key electrical matrix to led index lookup table, what the physical position of each LED is on the board, and what type of key or usage the LED if the LED represents. Here is a brief example:

```c
const led_config_t g_led_config = { {
  // Key Matrix to LED Index
  {   5, NO_LED, NO_LED,   0 },
  { NO_LED, NO_LED, NO_LED, NO_LED },
  {   4, NO_LED, NO_LED,   1 },
  {   3, NO_LED, NO_LED,   2 }
}, {
  // LED Index to Physical Position
  { 188,  16 }, { 187,  48 }, { 149,  64 }, { 112,  64 }, {  37,  48 }, {  38,  16 }
}, {
  // LED Index to Flag
  1, 4, 4, 4, 4, 1
} };
```

The first part, `// Key Matrix to LED Index`, tells the system what key this LED represents by using the key's electrical matrix row & col. The second part, `// LED Index to Physical Position` represents the LED's physical `{ x, y }` position on the keyboard. The default expected range of values for `{ x, y }` is the inclusive range `{ 0..224, 0..64 }`. This default expected range is due to effects that calculate the center of the keyboard for their animations. The easiest way to calculate these positions is imagine your keyboard is a grid, and the top left of the keyboard represents `{ x, y }` coordinate `{ 0, 0 }` and the bottom right of your keyboard represents `{ 224, 64 }`. Using this as a basis, you can use the following formula to calculate the physical position:

```c
x = 224 / (NUMBER_OF_COLS - 1) * COL_POSITION
y =  64 / (NUMBER_OF_ROWS - 1) * ROW_POSITION
```

Where NUMBER_OF_COLS, NUMBER_OF_ROWS, COL_POSITION, & ROW_POSITION are all based on the physical layout of your keyboard, not the electrical layout. 

As mentioned earlier, the center of the keyboard by default is expected to be `{ 112, 32 }`, but this can be changed if you want to more accurately calculate the LED's physical `{ x, y }` positions. Keyboard designers can implement `#define RGB_MATRIX_CENTER { 112, 32 }` in their config.h file with the new center point of the keyboard, or where they want it to be allowing more possibilities for the `{ x, y }` values. Do note that the maximum value for x or y is 255, and the recommended maximum is 224 as this gives animations runoff room before they reset.

`// LED Index to Flag` is a bitmask, whether or not a certain LEDs is of a certain type. It is recommended that LEDs are set to only 1 type.

## Flags :id=flags

|Define                      |Value |Description                                      |

|`HAS_ANY_FLAGS(bits, flags)`|*n/a* |Evaluates to `true` if `bits` has any `flags` set|
|`LED_FLAG_NONE`             |`0x00`|If this LED has no flags                         |
|`LED_FLAG_ALL`              |`0xFF`|If this LED has all flags                        |
|`LED_FLAG_MODIFIER`         |`0x01`|If the LED is on a modifier key                  |

|`LED_FLAG_KEYLIGHT`         |`0x04`|If the LED is for key backlight                  |
|`LED_FLAG_INDICATOR`        |`0x08`|If the LED is for keyboard state indication      |

## Keycodes :id=keycodes

All RGB keycodes are currently shared with the RGBLIGHT system:

|Key                |Aliases   |Description                                                                           |
|-------------------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|`RGB_TOG`          |          |Toggle RGB lighting on or off                                                         |
|`RGB_MODE_FORWARD` |`RGB_MOD` |Cycle through modes, reverse direction when Shift is held                             |
|`RGB_MODE_REVERSE` |`RGB_RMOD`|Cycle through modes in reverse, forward direction when Shift is held                  |

|`RGB_HUD`          |          |Decrease hue, increase hue when Shift is held                                         |
|`RGB_SAI`          |          |Increase saturation, decrease saturation when Shift is held                           |
|`RGB_SAD`          |          |Decrease saturation, increase saturation when Shift is held                           |
|`RGB_VAI`          |          |Increase value (brightness), decrease value when Shift is held                        |
|`RGB_VAD`          |          |Decrease value (brightness), increase value when Shift is held                        |
|`RGB_SPI`          |          |Increase effect speed (does not support eeprom yet), decrease speed when Shift is held|
|`RGB_SPD`          |          |Decrease effect speed (does not support eeprom yet), increase speed when Shift is held|
|`RGB_MODE_PLAIN`   |`RGB_M_P `|Static (no animation) mode                                                            |
|`RGB_MODE_BREATHE` |`RGB_M_B` |Breathing animation mode                                                              |
|`RGB_MODE_RAINBOW` |`RGB_M_R` |Full gradient scrolling left to right (uses the `RGB_MATRIX_CYCLE_LEFT_RIGHT` mode)   |
|`RGB_MODE_SWIRL`   |`RGB_M_SW`|Full gradient spinning pinwheel around center of keyboard (uses `RGB_MATRIX_CYCLE_PINWHEEL` mode) |

* `RGB_MODE_*` keycodes will generally work, but not all of the modes are currently mapped to the correct effects for the RGB Matrix system.

`RGB_MODE_PLAIN`, `RGB_MODE_BREATHE`, `RGB_MODE_RAINBOW`, and `RGB_MATRIX_SWIRL` are the only ones that are mapped properly. The rest don't have a direct equivalent, and are not mapped. 

!> By default, if you have both the [RGB Light](feature_rgblight.md) and the RGB Matrix feature enabled, these keycodes will work for both features, at the same time. You can disable the keycode functionality by defining the `*_DISABLE_KEYCODES` option for the specific feature.

## RGB Matrix Effects :id=rgb-matrix-effects

## Custom RGB Matrix Effects :id=custom-rgb-matrix-effects

By setting `RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_USER` (and/or `RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_KB`) in `rules.mk`, new effects can be defined directly from userspace, without having to edit any QMK core files.

To declare new effects, create a new `rgb_matrix_user/kb.inc` that looks something like this:

`rgb_matrix_user.inc` should go in the root of the keymap directory.
`rgb_matrix_kb.inc` should go in the root of the keyboard directory.

```c
// !!! DO NOT ADD #pragma once !!! //

// Step 1.
// Declare custom effects using the RGB_MATRIX_EFFECT macro
// (note the lack of semicolon after the macro!)
RGB_MATRIX_EFFECT(my_cool_effect)
RGB_MATRIX_EFFECT(my_cool_effect2)

// Step 2.
// Define effects inside the `RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS` ifdef block
#ifdef RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS

// e.g: A simple effect, self-contained within a single method
static bool my_cool_effect(effect_params_t* params) {
  RGB_MATRIX_USE_LIMITS(led_min, led_max);
  for (uint8_t i = led_min; i < led_max; i++) {
    rgb_matrix_set_color(i, 0xff, 0xff, 0x00);
  }
  return led_max < DRIVER_LED_TOTAL;
}

// e.g: A more complex effect, relying on external methods and state, with
// dedicated init and run methods
static uint8_t some_global_state;
static void my_cool_effect2_complex_init(effect_params_t* params) {
  some_global_state = 1;
}
static bool my_cool_effect2_complex_run(effect_params_t* params) {
  RGB_MATRIX_USE_LIMITS(led_min, led_max);
  for (uint8_t i = led_min; i < led_max; i++) {
    rgb_matrix_set_color(i, 0xff, some_global_state++, 0xff);
  }

  return led_max < DRIVER_LED_TOTAL;
}
static bool my_cool_effect2(effect_params_t* params) {
  if (params->init) my_cool_effect2_complex_init(params);
  return my_cool_effect2_complex_run(params);
}

#endif // RGB_MATRIX_CUSTOM_EFFECT_IMPLS
```

## Colors :id=colors

These are shorthands to popular colors. The `RGB` ones can be passed to the `setrgb` functions, while the `HSV` ones to the `sethsv` functions.

|RGB                |HSV                |
|-------------------|-------------------|
|`RGB_WHITE`        |`HSV_WHITE`        |

|`RGB_ORANGE`       |`HSV_ORANGE`       |
|`RGB_GOLDENROD`    |`HSV_GOLDENROD`    |
|`RGB_GOLD`         |`HSV_GOLD`         |

|`RGB_TEAL`         |`HSV_TEAL`         |
|`RGB_CYAN`         |`HSV_CYAN`         |
|`RGB_AZURE`        |`HSV_AZURE`        |
|`RGB_BLUE`         |`HSV_BLUE`         |
|`RGB_PURPLE`       |`HSV_PURPLE`       |
|`RGB_MAGENTA`      |`HSV_MAGENTA`      |
|`RGB_PINK`         |`HSV_PINK`         |

These are defined in [`rgblight_list.h`](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/rgblight_list.h). Feel free to add to this list!


## Additional `config.h` Options :id=additional-configh-options

```c
#define RGB_MATRIX_KEYPRESSES // reacts to keypresses
#define RGB_MATRIX_KEYRELEASES // reacts to keyreleases (instead of keypresses)
#define RGB_DISABLE_TIMEOUT 0 // number of milliseconds to wait until rgb automatically turns off
#define RGB_DISABLE_AFTER_TIMEOUT 0 // OBSOLETE: number of ticks to wait until disabling effects
#define RGB_DISABLE_WHEN_USB_SUSPENDED false // turn off effects when suspended
#define RGB_MATRIX_LED_PROCESS_LIMIT (DRIVER_LED_TOTAL + 4) / 5 // limits the number of LEDs to process in an animation per task run (increases keyboard responsiveness)
#define RGB_MATRIX_LED_FLUSH_LIMIT 16 // limits in milliseconds how frequently an animation will update the LEDs. 16 (16ms) is equivalent to limiting to 60fps (increases keyboard responsiveness)
#define RGB_MATRIX_MAXIMUM_BRIGHTNESS 200 // limits maximum brightness of LEDs to 200 out of 255. If not defined maximum brightness is set to 255
#define RGB_MATRIX_STARTUP_MODE RGB_MATRIX_CYCLE_LEFT_RIGHT // Sets the default mode, if none has been set
#define RGB_MATRIX_STARTUP_HUE 0 // Sets the default hue value, if none has been set
#define RGB_MATRIX_STARTUP_SAT 255 // Sets the default saturation value, if none has been set
#define RGB_MATRIX_STARTUP_VAL RGB_MATRIX_MAXIMUM_BRIGHTNESS // Sets the default brightness value, if none has been set
#define RGB_MATRIX_STARTUP_SPD 127 // Sets the default animation speed, if none has been set
#define RGB_MATRIX_DISABLE_KEYCODES // disables control of rgb matrix by keycodes (must use code functions to control the feature)
```

## EEPROM storage :id=eeprom-storage

The EEPROM for it is currently shared with the RGBLIGHT system (it's generally assumed only one RGB would be used at a time), but could be configured to use its own 32bit address with:

```c
#define EECONFIG_RGB_MATRIX (uint32_t *)28
```

Where `28` is an unused index from `eeconfig.h`.

## Callbacks :id=callbacks

### Indicators :id=indicators

If you want to set custom indicators, such as an LED for Caps Lock, or layer indication, you can use the `rgb_matrix_indicators_kb` or `rgb_matrix_indicators_user` function for that: 
```c
void rgb_matrix_indicators_kb(void) {
    rgb_matrix_set_color(index, red, green, blue);
}
```

### Suspended state :id=suspended-state
To use the suspend feature, make sure that `#define RGB_DISABLE_WHEN_USB_SUSPENDED true` is added to the `config.h` file. 

Additionally add this to your `<keyboard>.c`:

```c
void suspend_power_down_kb(void) {
    rgb_matrix_set_suspend_state(true);
    suspend_power_down_user();
}

void suspend_wakeup_init_kb(void) {
    rgb_matrix_set_suspend_state(false);
    suspend_wakeup_init_user();
}
```
or add this to your `keymap.c`:
```c
void suspend_power_down_user(void) {
    rgb_matrix_set_suspend_state(true);
}

void suspend_wakeup_init_user(void) {
    rgb_matrix_set_suspend_state(false);
}
```
