The Mobibooth EDGE photo booth features decorative RGB LED around the edges of the front and back of the unit. These LEDs provide an accent that can be color matched to your client’s event theme. They also can assist the DSLR or mirrorless camera in the system during auto-focus.
Follow the steps outlined below to connect to and control the Mobibooth EDGE RGB LEDs using Snappic’s LED Integrations.
This tutorial will only work for the iPad version of the EDGE. These steps are not applicable for the Surface Pro configuration.
Launch the Snappic app on your device. If necessary login to the app before proceeding.
Choose the event that you will be using by tapping it on the main screen of the Snappic app.
The EDGE LED controller differs from the Aura and Cruise products’ controller. If you are looking for instructions for an Aura or Cruise product please see Control Mobibooth Bluetooth LEDs With Snappic.
To select the EDGE LED controller tap on the Accessories button. This will bring up the selection window in the app.
Select the SP105E controller. Do not close the window before configuring the controller in the next step.
The next step is to open advanced settings and set the chip type and count for the EDGE RGB LEDs.
Tap Show Advanced Settings to reveal the Chip Type and LED Count settings.
Tap the Set Chip Type and select WS2811. Then tap Submit.
Next tap on Set LED Count button.
Set the count to 28 using the provided slider.
Snappic offers customization of the LEDs for a few different states in the app. Tap edit beside the state to specify the controller mode to use during that app state.
Once you set the chip type to WS2811 and the LED count to 28, the lights will respond to the app as expected. You can assign colors or animations for different parts of the session. This lets the booth match the event or give guests cues. Always test your settings before the event starts.
