  • Download PLV_v1.5.zip
  • Unzip the file
  • Use program like Win32 Disk Imager or Etcher to save system image to your SD card (4GB is a minimum).

Insert the SD card into your Raspberry Pi. After 3-8 minutes (depending on the speed of your SD card), you should see the Visualizer menu on the RPi screen and a new Wi-Fi access point.
Connect your smartphone or another device to the hotspot called "PianoLEDVisualizer" with the password "visualizer". Using your browser navigate to url: "pianoledvisualizer.local", then go to "Network" tab, choose your network, and provide password. After that, your RPi should be connected to your home network. You can access web interface with the same address (pianoledvisualizer.local). If that doesn't work, try 192.168.4.1. If you're connecting to the hotspot with your smartphone, try temporarily disabling the mobile network.
