Here is a little project wich can drive ws2812 ledstrip with an arduino plugged into a pinscape controller used as a ledwiz (so it should work with a reel ledwiz)

This is not a ledwiz clone but a collection of effects : contactors, fan, beacon, gear, lauch button, strobe..

This is a work in progress so...

The arduino is plugged on a ledwiz clone : the pinscape controller (kl25z) 

The pinscape controller drives 3 rgb leds and 2 strobes.

I tried with a Uno and a Mega and both are working well.

My situation is as follow: i'm going to setup my installation following the manual for the Pinscape Controlloer based on the Kl25Z from Mike R (https://developer.mbed.org/users/mjr/code/Pinscape_Controller/). At the same time i want to use your solution as a first step to control those ledstrips and a lightbar. A few questiosn i am having right now:

- How have you connected the arduino to KL25Z?

- How are you controlling the ledstrips AND the lightbar? All from the Arduino?

- Could i add a second Arduino for other light-effects such as strobes?

 

(I'm going to ask my questions about the toyduino here and not in the adressable-leds-topic to keep that oither topic clear ;)  )

I am using a 32 outputs firmware for the kl25z as i don't need so much buttons and prefere the ledwiz function.

I have connected the arduino directly from the ledwiz output of the kl25z to the inputs of the arduino.

when a input is involved, an effect is launched. which means that the colors of the effects are not changing with tables.

I first used a uno and it works well but now i use a mega because of the number of I/O.. I wanted to have a lot of toys together.

what kind of arduinos do you have?

 

the lightbar is controlled by the kl25z on the ledwiz side and are connected through uln2803a which are driving the 12v (the lightbar is made of classic ledstips).

 

you can add as many arduinos as you want  ;) now that we can use TLC5940NT with the latest firm of the kl. that chip is made for multiplex the outputs of the kl25z and can be daisy chained  :wub:

my strobe output of the kl25 is making the whole leds to light up in white. the strobes placed as on my "lighbar" are useless now.

So as for the beacon.

Hello gech. Is this the same solution as discussed previously in this topic: http://www.pincabpassion.net/t2365p105-mode-ledwiz-evoluee-sur-carte-arduino?I've read that topic also from start to finish but if i can ask questions about it in English is far easier for me  :)

 

BTW, that KL25Z/Arduino solution is looking good! I'm going to start with that in the next weeks because i already have the hardware in house.
