You can download the release client and server from releases.

Follow this guide for installing openFrameworks on the pi http://www.openframeworks.cc/setup/raspberrypi/Raspberry-Pi-Getting-Started.html

As default the clients are listening to commands from the hostname leafMaster.local. Set your hostname to this.

You can use fabric and the included fabfile to perform operations on a large number of clients. Open up the file and add in hostnames for your clients in the two groups named leader and all. Make sure fabric is installed.

If you have downloaded the client binary you don't need to compile, just put it in 'ledClient/bin/data' and then run deploy. Compile will copy new src to the client compile it and then copy the binary back to 'ledClient/bin/data'.

fab compile

fab deploy_all

fab deploy --host [USER]@[HOSTNAME].local

The client units are build around a raspberry pi and a network switch.
