Christmas Light Code and Software
Vixen-Duino –
Arduino source code for controlling your Christmas lights display with an Arduino connected to Vixen 3 Light Controller Software.
Our display forums
There are 2 versions
Vixen-Duino WS2811 RGB
This will control WS2811 RGB LED strands (You can change the source for WS2812 and other versions of RGB Leds)
Use >>LEDCOUNT<< as the “Send a text header” in your Vixen Software, this should contain the full count of LEDs to be controlled.
Vixen-Duino Relays
This version will control a simple relay bank, it’s currently configured for 32 total relays.
I am using mechanical relays in my setup, this code has not been tested with solid state relays!
Use ~! as the “Send a text header” in your Vixen Software.

Shooting Gallery –
This is a VERY Beta version of some code I wrote for a BB gun based shooting gallery.
The basics of it, you use metal spoons that make contact with a back plate that completes the circuit.
When this occurs, it triggers the target being hit.
I have test code I still need to clean up, for items such as a shot counter (using a MIC), time between shots, hit counters, reaction timers and the like.
More details in the forums.
