LP5521 has the internal program memory for running various LED patterns.
-For the details, please refer to 'firmware' section in leds-lp55xx.txt
+There are two ways to run LED patterns.

+1) Legacy interface - enginex_mode and enginex_load
+ Control interface for the engines:
+ x is 1 .. 3
+ enginex_mode : disabled, load, run
+ enginex_load : store program (visible only in engine load mode)
+
+ Example (start to blink the channel 2 led):
+ cd /sys/class/leds/lp5521:channel2/device
+ echo "load" > engine3_mode
+ echo "037f4d0003ff6000" > engine3_load
+ echo "run" > engine3_mode
+
+ To stop the engine:
+ echo "disabled" > engine3_mode
