# XVF3800 USB LED and Mute Button Support in `linux-voice-assistant`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The XVF3800 branch now includes **USB-based LED ring support** using the XVF3800’s legacy LED control commands (`LED_EFFECT`, `LED_BRIGHTNESS`, `LED_SPEED`, `LED_COLOR`). This post outlines how to pull the branch, refresh your virtualenv, and enable XVF3800 support in `config.json`. I fully expect bugs and you should too. Let me know if it works first try and I will by some lottery tickets as well.
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 1. Get the XVF3800 Branch
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you **already have** the repo:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
cd ~/linux-voice-assistant
|
|
||||||
git fetch origin
|
|
||||||
git switch XVF3800 # or: git checkout xvf3800
|
|
||||||
git pull
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you’re **cloning fresh**:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
cd ~
|
|
||||||
git clone --branch XVF3800 --single-branch https://github.com/imonlinux/linux-voice-assistant.git
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 2. Install/Refresh the Virtualenv (New Dependencies)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The XVF3800 backend uses **pyusb** and system libusb.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From the project root:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
cd ~/linux-voice-assistant
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# remove the linux_voice_assistant.egg-info folder if it exists
|
|
||||||
rm -rf linux_voice_assistant.egg-info
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Create venv if you don't already have one
|
|
||||||
script/setup
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
On Debian/RPi OS, make sure libusb is installed:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
sudo apt update
|
|
||||||
sudo apt install libusb-1.0-0
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
No extra `hidapi` is required for the LED integration (this path is pure pyusb).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 3. Copy the udev rule for the XVF3800
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
On the Pi:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
sudo cp ~linux-voice-assistant/XVF3800/99-respeaker-xvf3800.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/99-respeaker-xvf3800.rules
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This does:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Matches the XVF3800 by VID/PID (2886:001a)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Sets permissions to 0660
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Assigns it to the plugdev group
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Tags it for desktop access (uaccess)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Add user (pi) to the plugdev group
|
|
||||||
**use the user name that you have created if not pi**
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
sudo usermod -aG plugdev pi
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then log out and back in (or reboot) so the new group membership takes effect.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Reload udev rules and replug the device
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you didn't reboot, reload the udev rules:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
|
|
||||||
sudo udevadm trigger
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then unplug/replug the XVF3800 USB cable.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can sanity-check permissions with:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
ls -l /dev/bus/usb/*/*
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Look for the device entry that corresponds to 2886:001a (you can pair it with lsusb), and confirm it’s root plugdev with crw-rw----.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 4. Enable XVF3800 Support in `config.json`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Edit `linux_voice_assistant/config.json` and set the `led` block to use the XVF3800 USB backend. If you want to test the mute button, add the following button section as well. See the `linux_voice_assistant/config.json.example` file for additional options.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Minimal example:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```jsonc
|
|
||||||
{
|
|
||||||
"app": {
|
|
||||||
"name": "Linux Voice Assistant XVF3800"
|
|
||||||
},
|
|
||||||
"led": {
|
|
||||||
"enabled": true,
|
|
||||||
"led_type": "xvf3800",
|
|
||||||
"interface": "usb"
|
|
||||||
},
|
|
||||||
"button": {
|
|
||||||
"enabled": true,
|
|
||||||
"mode": "xvf3800"
|
|
||||||
},
|
|
||||||
"mqtt": {
|
|
||||||
"host": "192.168.1.2",
|
|
||||||
"port": 1883,
|
|
||||||
"username": "mqtt_username",
|
|
||||||
"password": "mqtt_password"
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
---
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## 5. Run the Assistant with XVF3800 LEDs
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Stop any running systemd units:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
systemctl --user stop linux-voice-assistant.service
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From the project root:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```bash
|
|
||||||
cd ~/linux-voice-assistant
|
|
||||||
script/run --debug
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
With the XVF3800 branch + config above, the **USB LED ring** should now:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Show the configured **idle / listening / thinking / responding / error** effects
|
|
||||||
- Turn **solid dim red** when the mic is muted
|
|
||||||
- Track changes coming from the MQTT LED state entities
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The mute button should now:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Keep hardware mute & software/LVA mute fully in sync.
|
|
||||||
- No short/long press differentiation:
|
|
||||||
One physical control, one responsibility: mute/unmute.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
`Wake/stop is still done via wake word or a separate GPIO button (you can still wire a standalone Pi button and run mode="gpio" in parallel if desired).`
