Bridge not running on this computer

You're on localhost, so the bridge should run on this same machine. Start it once:

cd tools/pulse-bridge && npm install && node index.mjs

Then it auto-connects. (On a PulseBox the bridge is a systemd service — you don't run this.)

Bridge URL (manual override)

The bridge is optional — Pulse runs fully in the browser without it. It adds native I/O the browser can't do (Link, native MIDI/HID, OSC, DMX, OpenCV, NDI, Home Assistant). LAN/localhost only. Capabilities below are honest: “unavailable” until that native module ships.

link unavailable

midi unavailable

osc unavailable

hid unavailable

dmx unavailable

opencv unavailable

ndi unavailable

homeAssistant unavailable

No real devices connected. Open a Pulse Receiver / TV on this PulseBox — it appears here automatically (no IP typing). On the cloud site this stays empty (it can't see your LAN).

Your PulseBox

No PulseBox paired yet. On the box screen you'll see a 6-character code — enter it here to link it to your account.

To find your Wi-Fi lights, start Pulse Bridge.

Pulse works with LIFX / WLED / Hue smart bulbs, projectors and DMX. This website can't scan your Wi-Fi directly — that's a browser safety rule. Pulse Bridge is a small helper that runs on your laptop or PulseBox and scans your lights safely on the local network.

Start it once, then press Find lights:

node tools/pulse-bridge

Advanced — bridge runs on another device

Only if Pulse Bridge runs on a different machine on your network — enter its LAN address. Otherwise you don't need this.

Bridge URL

Discover on your network

Click Scan to find lights on this network (LIFX broadcast + mDNS).

Start the bridge to scan for devices.

Add a LIFX bulb by IP — when discovery doesn't find it

Find the bulb's IP in the LIFX app (bulb → settings → IP). This talks to it directly (unicast), bypassing broadcast — works across subnets if the bridge can reach the IP.

Supported today: LIFX (LAN broadcast + add-by-IP) and WLED (mDNS + HTTP). Art-Net nodes that advertise mDNS show up here too. Hue / Nanoleaf pairing, Tuya / BLE / Bluetooth, and DMX-over-USB are not wired — DMX USB needs WebSerial or a native bridge.
