Typical usage on the command prompt: Send : >S000\n //request state Recieve : *S19000\n //returned state

Send : >B128\n //set brightness 128 Recieve : *B19128\n //confirming brightness set to 128

Send : >J000\n //get brightness Recieve : *B19128\n //brightness value of 128 (assuming as set from above)

Send : >L000\n //turn light on (uses set brightness value) Recieve : *L19000\n //confirms light turned on

Send : >D000\n //turn light off (brightness value should not be changed) Recieve : *D19000\n //confirms light turned off.

Indilib support and CRLF

Hi, first of all thank for this piece of code
I've made a few changes to make it work with indilib,
but i've no idea if SGP will support that
(asked a couple of friends to try)

Most of my modification is to play around with CRLF
(i've also added servo support)
Do you mind if i make a pull request ?

Not working with Pro Micro

I can't get SGP to connect using a Pro Micro. Sending the commands via realterm it responds OK.
The sketch works with SGP using a nano or a Mega.
Any idea where the problem might lie?

New Alnitak generic command

Hi Jared,

Really hope you can update the command so that other Softwares also can connect with it. I tried your Arduino firmware recently and it failed to connect in NINA, SGpro and so on.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Regards,
Tom
