Download Adafruit_IS31FL3731 library
To begin reading sensor data, you will need to download Adafruit_IS31FL3731 and Adafruit_GFX from the Arduino library manager.
Open up the Arduino library manager:
Search for the Adafruit IS31FL3731 library and install it
Search for the Adafruit GFX library and install it
If using an earlier version of the Arduino IDE (prior to 1.8.10), also locate and install Adafruit_BusIO (newer versions will install this dependency automatically).
We also have a great tutorial on Arduino library installation at:
http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-all-about-arduino-libraries-install-use
Load Demo
Open up File->Examples->Adafruit_IS31FL3731->featherswirldemo and upload to your Feather + CharliePlex Matrix Feather
At the top of the sketch, find the code that says
// If you're using the full breakout... Adafruit_IS31FL3731 ledmatrix = Adafruit_IS31FL3731(); // If you're using the FeatherWing version //Adafruit_IS31FL3731_Wing ledmatrix = Adafruit_IS31FL3731_Wing();
and uncomment the last line and recomment the second line so you have:
// If you're using the full breakout... //Adafruit_IS31FL3731 ledmatrix = Adafruit_IS31FL3731(); // If you're using the FeatherWing version Adafruit_IS31FL3731_Wing ledmatrix = Adafruit_IS31FL3731_Wing();
Upload to your Arduino, you'll see the LED display swirl different brightnesses!
