I am currently using DIG-OCTA controllers running WLED. I have a relay connected to the board relay outputs to control the the power for the LEDs. This way the power supply is not running when the light show is not running. Works great, reduces power consumption.
I want to look at swicthing the boards to using Pixelstick software. The last time I looked at it, I could not see how you can control the main power supply relay when the light show starts.

Is there a way to configure the Pixelstick software so that it will trip the relay output on the DIG Octa board when the show starts?
 
I just reworked the relay interface. But, yes this has been in the ESPS V4 SW all along. You can even send the esps an http command to control the relay or you can make it a part of the data channels in the show.
 
Ok . I will flash the Dig Octya again. And see if I can get it to work. I would like the relay to power on when the show starts to provide the 12v power to the lights. I will update once I have tried.
