WiiLAB Example Code - setWiimoteLEDs

Note: MATLAB R2007a or greater is required for this code to run correctly.

Annotations

The setWiimoteLEDs function allows the user to control each of the Wiimote's four LEDs.

Usage

setWiimoteLEDs([on], [on], [on], [on]);

* where each [on] is either a boolean value (true/false) or an integer (1/0) and corresponds to the subsequent LED from left to right

• true or 1 will turn the given LED on
• false or 0 will turn the given LED off

Example

The following snippet of code will execute the block inside the if statement and display 'LEDs 1 and 3 are on'.

if ( setWiimoteLEDs(true, false, true, false) )
    disp('LEDs 1 and 3 are on');
end
