LED Ticker is a tool for programming LED ticker bars using a RS232 serial connection under GNU/Linux. Should work without major changes on almost all other Unices, too.

LED Ticker has been created for the Lunartec LED Lauflichtleiste 7x50 sold by the German hardware/software/etc. supplier PEARL Agency in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France.

As the PEARL own brand Lunartec seems to be OEM-reselling this product, it is very likely this program will work for other devices, too. Please report any success with other devices to: cru [at] zodia [dot] de

If you are a manufacturer/supplier of a compatible or similar device and want your device being listed here resp. LED Ticker to support for your device, please contact me via the EMail address shown above.

LED Ticker Tool is free software released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, version 2.

What's New in This Release:
This version supports programming text messages in various scrolling speeds and syncing the clock with the host system RTC.
Conversion of ISO 8859-15 German umlauts and other special characters is supported.
The no-flash mode helps suppressing text light-up during programming.
The software supports programming a specific device when several devices are connected to the RS232 port, as well as setting the device ID of connected units.
