RadiancePro Setup

RadianceProClient requires the Lumagen RadiancePro to have Echo enabled:

• MENU → Other → I/O Setup → RS-232 Setup → Echo → On

As well as report mode changes set to Fullv4:

• MENU → Other → I/O Setup → RS-232 Setup → Report mode changes → Fullv4

Sample: Show Hello World

Use the ShowMessageAsync() to show a message on the display.

// initialize client
using var client = new RadianceProClient(new RadianceProClientConfig {
    PortName = "/dev/ttyUSB0",
    BaudRate = 9600
});

// show message
await client.ShowMessageAsync("Hello World!!!", 5);

Sample: Listen for events

Use DisplayModeChanged to listen to events, such as input or content changes.

// hook-up event handler
client.DisplayModeChanged += ShowDisplayMode;

// wait until the enter key is pressed
Console.ReadLine();

// remove event handler
client.DisplayModeChanged -= ShowDisplayMode;

// function acting on events
void ShowDisplayMode(object? sender, DisplayModeChangedEventArgs args) {
    Console.WriteLine("=== DISPLAY MODE ===");
    Console.WriteLine(JsonSerializer.Serialize(args.DisplayMode, new JsonSerializerOptions {
        WriteIndented = true
    }));
}
