How To / Projects - Controllers

Renard (REN) Controllers - Thanks to the Do-It-Yourself community at www.doityourselfchristmas.com, I have built both REN16 and REN24 controllers for use in this years display. I have the capability of using 304 channels of animated control, but will only use 168 channels in the display for 2008.

REN16 - The Renard 16 is a PIC microcontroller based Christmas light controller with 16 solid state relay circuits incorporated into the board. I currently have 10 of these controllers, but will only utilize 6 of them in the display for 2008.

   
REN24 - The Renard 24 is a PIC microcontroller based Christmas light controller with 24 solid state relay circuits incorporated into the board. I currently have 6 of these controllers, but will only utilize 3 of them in the display for 2008.
