Advanced UI
Simple UI
Background: This was 100% inspired by Lux-Perpetua’s Andúril 2 UI diagram on BLF. In fact, Lux’s diagram is so good, that I would have been happy to just use it except for one thing: the source isn’t published, so you can’t modify it. I also wanted to be able to keep it up to date with u/ToyKeeper’s code. So I created my own…
This is where I intend to store all of my Anduril 2 UI diagrams, and any updates to them. Since ToyKeeper split off the multi-channel version of Anduril 2, I have created two new diagrams for it:
Anduril 2 Multi-Channel Advanced UI (PNG)Anduril 2 Multi-Channel Simple UI (PNG)
Diagrams now hosted on GitHub.
Yeah, it got complicated enough that I could no longer fit the Advanced and Simple UI diagrams on a single page, so I had to split them.
As always, you are free to do whatever you want with these diagrams. I make these for myself, and I’m happy to share them with the community. You can find the source MS Visio file here. Feel free to make your own copy and modify it to your heart’s content. The Visio file contains several pages:
Single-Channel - Advanced/Simple UI diagram for the single-channel version of Anduril 2. I still need to update and post it.Multi-Simple - Simple UI diagram for the multi-channel version of Anduril 2.Multi-Advanced - Advanced UI diagram for the multi-channel version of Anduril 2.Diagram Parts - Various bits and pieces that I use in the various UI diagrams.
If you find any errors, please post a comment here. I try to keep the diagrams as accurate and up-to-date as possible, but you know, life happens. Enjoy!
Updates:
- 2023-07-06: Fixed several issues pointed out here. Thanks @lowprofile!
- 2023-07-09: Fixed a few more issues pointed out here. Thanks again @lowprofile! Also trying to get the wording in a few places more inline with the text manual.
- 2023-07-15: Updated for r728 which added channels for red, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, and white. Added 4H from ON to Momentary Turbo. Added 3C from Tactical Mode to Next Channel Mode. Several other minor fixes. Huge thanks to @lowprofile for continuing to provide valuable feedback. This multi-channel diagram has been a journey!
- 2023-07-17: Multiple visual enhancements/fixes thanks to @lowprofile. Incremented the version to r732 even though there were no material impacts to the diagram.
- 2023-07-20: Modified the ramp part of the diagram to reflect the default Anduril 2 configuration (2C to Ceiling). Thanks again to @lowprofile for feedback. I also switch from revisions to build dates as suggested by ToyKeeper.
- 2023-07-22: Made several corrections to the Simple UI diagram that I had been neglecting. Also made a slight wording change to the ramp config boxed on the Advanced UI diagram. Thanks to @lowprofile for all corrections. Finally, I incremented the build date to 2023-07-21, although there were no material impacts to the diagrams.
- 2023-08-06: Several cosmetic fixes to the Simple and Advanced UI diagrams thanks to feed back from @lowprofile. Also incremented the build date to 2023-08-04, although there were no material impacts to the diagrams.
- 2023-08-07: Several clarifications thanks to feedback from @lowprofile. Also incremented the build date to 2023-08-07, although there were no material impacts to the diagrams.
- 2023-08-10: Several cosmetic fixes to the Simple and Advanced UI diagrams thanks to feed back from @lowprofile.
- 2023-10-03: I’m embarrassed to admit that I missed an update from the 2023-08-27 release in which “smooth steps” were added (see the Ramp Extras Config). Other than that, there have been no material changes to the diagrams.
- 2023-11-07: I finally got around to making a couple of updates suggested by @lowprofile. In the Strobe Modes on the Advanced UI diagram, you’ll notice that 3C allows you to save the channel mode per strobe mode. Very cool!
- 2024-01-01: Last update here on Lemmy. Lemmy is great, but it makes more sense to host the diagrams on GitHub when I can issue diagram releases corresponding with ToyKeeper’s Anduril 2 releases. From now on, please access the diagrams there. It’s a fairly significant update, so please be sure to read the README.

Idea for the initial post (showing on top): Maybe it would be useful to also have the diagram (PNG) for Simple UI show up? As far as I can tell, there is one image that can function as a thumbnail at the very top (should probably just stay the Advanced UI PNG, as presently), but maybe in the text below, either the Simple UI PNG or both, Advanced UI PNG and Simple UI PNG, could be displayed (displaying both underneath each other would show them together and make clear that they belong together; and Anduril novices might want to start off with the Simple UI diagram and could see that one right away). This way, the Simple UI diagram would get more and immediate attention as well.
This is going to sound silly, but I didn’t realize that I could post in-line images. I added both per your suggestion, and it’s much more functional. Thanks for getting me to finally look into it!
Awesome! (and nothing silly here) :-)
Apart from the “smooth steps”, there has since been one more material change: the channel mode for the strobe modes is now individually saved per strobe mode. This allows to set a different channel mode for each suitable strobe mode.
This change was introduced with revision 753, 2023-08-24, and documented in the text manual with revision 783, 2023-10-12.
I have checked with Emisar D2, running ToyKeeper’s latest release, anduril.2023-10-01.emisar-2ch.hex, and indeed, the channel mode is saved per strobe mode. So this is working.
This would be an addition to the Advanced UI diagram: “saved per strobe mode” could be added in Strobe Modes Actions 3C, which could then for example read
3C: Next channel mode (except Police Strobe), saved per strobe mode.In addition, here comes a slight detail for consistency in the Advanced UI diagram: in Blinky/Utility Modes, it should maybe read
Thermal Configinstead of currentlyThermal Configuration, as everywhere else in the diagram, it readsConfig.Thanks. I finally made the updates.
Great, thank you!
these flowcharts are just fantastic!
thank you very much for sharing them
I have started using them, marked up with the specific changes I make to different anduril lights I own, like this one for my Aluminium TS10’s:

makes it really easy to keep track of changes I make to the factory defaults
I nominate this thread to be a sticky… Thumbs Up!
Yeah, there are a couple of things I’m working on (very slowly):
- I’m converting the diagrams over to Inkscape from Visio for a couple of reasons: 1) Folks don’t have to buy a license for Inkscape since it’s open-source, and 2) Inkscape saves the diagrams to the SVG format which should allow folks to scale them up and down without losing resolution.
- I want to use version control on GitHub so that folks can select the version of the diagram that goes along with the version of Anduril they have on their lights. Not everyone has the ability to flash to the latest version.
It’s a slow process because I’m using Inkscape for the first time and I’ve just been busy. But any updates will always be posted here.
Thank you very much for the last update!
Thank you for the new upgrade!
2023-12-03 is last release of @ToyKeeper. I’m testing it in FW3X and Turbo style is only in 10H menu and not in 7H (4 flash). I don’t remember if it was in previous version. Is redundant menu or maybe some flashlight has this double function?
Hi, I just checked with Emisar D2, running the lastest release 2023-12-03, and all is working as displayed on the diagram. From
ON, 10H leads to Ramp Extras Config (forAdvanced UI), with 4 Turbo style setting. FromON, for 7H there is no 4 Turbo style setting. FromOFF, 10H leads toconfig Simple UI, and there is 4 Turbo setting (forSimple UI). There is no redundant Turbo style setting, as one is forAdvanced UI, and the other is forSimple UI.Maybe some confusion is caused because both 7H from
ON(config current ramp) as well as 10H fromOFF(config Simple UI) lead toRamp Config, but this way, some space can be saved on the diagram page layout, because there is no need to display two separateRamp Configtextboxes. InRamp Config, after 4 Turbo style setting, in the diagram(only 10H)is displayed, indicating that this setting is only forconfig Simple UI, 10H fromOFF.I am hopeful that this addresses the issue, and may have clarified things. :)
