How it all runs – the Hardware and Software
The controlling hardware is all based on a design called the “Renard24″ which is a 24 output lighting controller which hooks to your PC and provides 24 individually controlled plugs.
The hardware is based on my own design, and if you want to see the more technical side of the hardware, visit www.kostyun.com.
The sofware application is called “Vixen,” which is the software application used by most “do it yourself” people who are creating and building (Or by purchasing pre-made (ready to assemble) circuit boards.)
For more informaton on Vixen, and learn how to create and build a animated Christmas light display, visit an online forum called, www.DoItYourselfChristmas.com
Below is a hardware “history” of the changes that have been done to the controll hardware over the past four years (and what changes they have been!)
