Abstract

A remote full-color LED lighting monitoring system, which uses Ethernet drivers and MCUs, is presented. The designs of the hardware and the software are given. The remote host computer sends out orders using UDP protocols, and then the MCUs receive them through the Ethernet drivers and transform them into the action orders to control the brightness of the LED lamps and monitor the current values of the LED drivers in order to ensure the normal operation of the LED drivers. The experiments results show that the system can effectively monitor the LED lighting system.
