### Show LED Updates

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Initiate an update to the LEDs with the currently set pixel data. This function returns quickly, but the display update continues in the background. If called during an active update, it waits for completion before starting a new one.

```cpp
leds.show();
```

--------------------------------

### Get Pixel Color

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Retrieve the current color of a specific pixel. The function returns the color as a 24-bit number in RGB order.

```cpp
leds.getPixel(num);
```

--------------------------------

### leds.begin()

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Initializes the OctoWS2811 library. This function must be called before any other library functions like setPixel() or show().

```APIDOC
## leds.begin()

### Description
Initializes the library. Must be called before using setPixel or show.

### Method
`void begin();`
```

--------------------------------

### leds.show()

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Initiates an update of the LEDs with the currently set pixel data. This function returns quickly, allowing the display update to proceed in the background.

```APIDOC
## leds.show()

### Description
Starts an update of the LEDs with the current pixel data. This function returns quickly, and the display update continues in the background.

### Method
`void show();`

### Notes
If called while a previous update is running, this function waits for the previous update to complete before starting a new one.
```

### Configure VideoDisplay Parameters

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

These parameters define the physical LED arrangement and the portion of the video to be displayed on each Teensy board. Adjust LED_WIDTH, LED_HEIGHT, and LED_LAYOUT for your specific LED matrix. VIDEO_XOFFSET, VIDEO_YOFFSET, VIDEO_WIDTH, and VIDEO_HEIGHT determine which part of the video stream is shown.

```c++
#include <OctoWS2811.h>

// The actual arrangement of the LEDs connected to this Teensy 3.0 board.
#define LED_WIDTH         60    // number of LEDs horizontally
#define LED_HEIGHT        16    // number of LEDs vertically (must be multiple of 8)
#define LED_LAYOUT        0     // 0 = even rows left->right, 1 = even rows right->left

// The portion of the video image to show on this set of LEDs.  All 4 numbers
// are percentages, from 0 to 100.
#define VIDEO_XOFFSET     0
#define VIDEO_YOFFSET     0           // display entire image (single Teensy)
#define VIDEO_WIDTH       100
#define VIDEO_HEIGHT      100

```

### Initialize OctoWS2811 Library

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Call this function after creating the OctoWS2811 object to initialize the library. It must be called before using functions like setPixel or show.

```cpp
leds.begin();
```

--------------------------------

### OctoWS2811 Object Creation

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Instantiate the OctoWS2811 library. Only one object can be created. Parameters define the number of LEDs per strip, memory allocation for display and drawing, and configuration options for LED type and speed.

```APIDOC
## OctoWS2811 Object Creation

### Description
Create an OctoWS2811 object with the following parameters:

### Parameters
*   **ledsPerStrip** (int) - The number of LEDs connected to each strip, or the maximum number if they vary.
*   **displayMemory** (int array) - Memory buffer for display data. Should be an array of 'int' 6 times ledsPerStrip.
*   **drawingMemory** (int array or NULL) - Memory buffer for drawing operations. Can be an array of 'int' 6 times ledsPerStrip, or NULL to draw directly to display memory.
*   **config** (enum) - Configuration options for WS2811 speed and color order. Options include WS2811_RGB, WS2811_RBG, WS2811_GRB, WS2811_GBR, WS2811_800kHz, WS2811_400kHz.
```

--------------------------------

### OctoWS2811 Object Creation

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Instantiate the OctoWS2811 library object. Ensure you only create one object and provide the correct parameters for LEDs per strip, display memory, drawing memory, and configuration options for WS2811 speed and color order.

```cpp
OctoWS2811 leds(ledsPerStrip, displayMemory, drawingMemory, config);
```

--------------------------------

### leds.busy()

Source: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_OctoWS2811.html

Checks if the library is currently updating the LEDs. Returns true if an update is in progress, and false otherwise.

```APIDOC
## leds.busy()

### Description
Checks if a previous show() operation is still running.

### Returns
*   `true` if the WS2811 LEDs are busy being updated.
*   `false` if no update is in progress.

### Method
`bool busy();`
```
