Leds

Codes have been taken from this article.

• turn-leds-off.sh: turns leds off
• turn-leds-on.sh: turn leds back on

Ex (this is how I use it): turn leds daily at 10PM, turn them back on at 6AM.

turn-leds-off.sh

#!/bin/sh

printf \\x36 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_POWER_OFF
printf \\x37 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_HD_OFF
printf \\x42 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_USB_OFF
printf \\x4B > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_10G_LAN_OFF
printf \\x50 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_MIRROR_OFF

turn-leds-on.sh

#!/bin/sh

printf \\x34 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_POWER_ON
printf \\x38 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_HD_GS
printf \\x40 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_USB_ON
printf \\x4A > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_10G_LAN_ON
printf \\x51 > /dev/ttyS1 # UART2_CMD_LED_MIRROR_GS
