Getting Connected

import { DeviceDiscoveryManager } from 'rocket-nuimo'

// Device connection manager
const manager = DeviceDiscoveryManager.defaultManager

/**
 * Main application entry point
 */
async function main() {
    console.log('Starting Numio Control discovery')

    // Create a new discovery session
    const session = manager.startDiscoverySession()

    console.log('Waiting for device...')

    // Convenience to await the first discovered Nuimo device
    const device = await session.waitForFirstDevice()

    console.log(`Found device '${device.id}'`)
    console.log('Connecting...')

    // Establish device connection
    if (await device.connect()) {
        console.log('Connected to Nuimo Control')

        //
        // You're connected, observe events and get started...
        //

        // If the device gets disconnected, exit the app
        device.on('disconnect', () => {
            console.log('Disconnected! Exiting.')

            // On a disconnect, exit
            process.exit(0)
        })
    }
}

// Boot strap async function
main().catch((err) => {
  console.log(err)
})

$ yarn device-discovery

# Simple display of custom glyphs
$ yarn display

# Example of simple animation
$ yarn animation

# Selection events
$ yarn select-events

# Touch/Long Touch events
$ yarn touch-events

# Swipe (on device) and through the "fly" touchless gesture
$ yarn swipe-events

# Hover proximity events, through "fly" touchless gestures

Toubleshooting

There can be troubles connecting to a Nuimo when playing around with the device. To give you some leads in trouble shooting, try the following:

  • Click the center screen button to wake up Nuimo Control
  • Power cycle Nuimo Control
  • Reset bluetooth if on your Mac
  • Check if there are any current issue with noble related to the OS/Node.js version you are using.
