Fading LED eyes

Hello,

currently i try to understand the software and made a breadboard layout with Aduino micro.
I wonder the function of the fading LED eyes?
LED_OUT is defined as 13, is it IO13 - physical PIN 32?
While uploading to firmware the LED is fading in & out. That's nice.
But what is the function of the LED's in normal use? I cannot see any command to switch LED on/off?
Am i miss something?

Hi Tueddy,

PLEN2's headboard has a micro-controller to communicate with other BLE devices.
We have developed a function in the controller that is blinking led like a wink as a sense of fun :)

However, users might not be able to customize it because should use additional SDK released from Bluegiga Inc..
We will publish the firmware, but its customization is not easy than the Arduino, so we are cheering if you want to understand the mechanism.

Please be looking forward ;)

Hi Tueddy,

Sorry for very delayed update X(

You could see the algorithm on the web. It is implemented by PWM controlling function.
