💖 NAME 💖

ola_rdm_get — bestie, this is the lil tool that goes and gets the value of a PID for an RDM device. That's it, that's the job. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ola_rdm_get --universe <universe> --uid <uid> <pid> <value>

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so. ola_rdm_get gets the value of a pid for a device. that's the whole vibe. 💅

and if you're sitting there like "girl what pids even exist tho" — no worries, just run ola_rdm_get --list-pids and it will hand you a whole list of pids. slay 🫶

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • --frames — shows you the raw RDM frames, but only if they're available. like, if they exist. don't come for me if they don't. 🙈
  • --uid <uid> — the UID of the device you wanna control. yes, you need this. it's giving "who am I even talking to" energy. 👑
  • -d, --sub-device <device> — targets one specific sub device. default is 0, so if you don't say anything it's always sub device zero, no cap. 🎀
  • -h, --help — displays this help message and then dips. exits immediately, iconic behaviour. ✨
  • -l, --list-pids — displays a list of pids. literally the one you want when you're lost. 🦋
  • -p, --pid-location — the directory it reads PID definitions from. that's where the pid lore lives. 📁
  • -u, --universe <universe> — universe number. just the number. that's it. 🌈
💀 reminder bestie: you gotta give it --universe and --uid plus a <pid> and a <value>, or it's just gonna look at you. periodt.

that's the whole page, my love 🧚 — ola_rdm_get, from December 2015, part of the OLA_RDM_GET(1) manual. go get those pid values, you absolute main character. 💜🍓
