Abstract
An LED circuit board, system, and method of using an LED configuration tool are described. The LED circuit board contains a microprocessor that wakes up when power is supplied from the LED configuration tool. The microprocessor determines that the LED configuration tool is present by sending a signal from one pin and detecting whether the same signal is received at another pin. When analog or digital programming information received from the LED configuration tool matches information in a table of the microprocessor, the programming information is stored to change the lighting parameters used by the LEDs. Feedback from the microprocessor to the LED configuration tool provides information regarding the status of programming the microprocessor.
