WIRETrix Sequencer

Nice to see that there is more Arduino interest on the forum than when I did my first project.

I did an Arduino project almost 2 years ago and posted the results here.

Here is the link:

I wish I had my SSRneon-G2 board when I did this. It would have made it alot easier.

Just thought I'd post this so it would be in the Arduino forum.

Nice! I'll echo/rephrase a question asked in that thread: was this on/off only, or did you incorporate dimming? If dimming, how did you manage ZC?

Also, did you ever build the bigger versions you mentioned? How'd that work out?

Dimming is accomplished via PWM. It is independent of VIXEN. So, zero cross doesn't come into play.
Vixen simply turns this unit on or off.
I didn't build the bigger version, but the code is already doing 8 channels.

Sorry, I need to clarify my question. Is the output from your Arduino on/off or PWM dimming?

The one I built is on/off.
PWM can be turned on with a simple code change.
You have to hard code the dim up/down time interval.
