Is there any way of illuminating all of the LEDs using the Test facility in BlinkStick 1.0.1?

Thanks

Mark

You have to set the internal mode of the device to mode 3 (LED mirror mode). Afaik there is no GUI for that at the moment. If you only want to illuminate all LEDs for test purposes i prefer BlinkStick Status:

> Arvyd, I just wanted to let you know that the problem occurs on a machine with a fresh install of everything including Windows 7 and Office 2013. Strangely, BlinkStick is no longer writing content to the logs, they’re all empty files, so I have nothing to share with you.

The new version of BlinkStick Client application is going to be released on Monday. It will have this facility and much more.

Am I missing something or has the new release not been released? I can only see a download for version 1.0.1

Thanks you

Mark

Hello, got my blinkstick and LED adapter lighting my computer case. One thing, the software does not turn on the LED lights upon boot up. Just wondering if/when a new version of the software is coming out. 😉

Thanks

Hey Chris,  
the BlinkStick Status already has this function. It can automaticly turn the light on after boot up. Just give it a try if you like. It is also a beta but it works for my case.

Will look into this. Now you can simply do get\_mode to check if the mode needs to be changed.
