64 channel Arduino based Channel E1.31 PWM controller (for dumb pixels)

The OP doesn't seem to have that domain now and hasn't been on ACL since last 2017.

Hi, If you don’t get any joy finding the code but still want to make something like this I have done similar projects. The links below were written during the development so waffle a bit but should contain all the information.

A 16 channel controller for ‘dumb’ LEDs that receives E1.31 data over WiFi via an ESP8266 and is expandable up to 64 channels on the current board. I have used these for the last two years without issue.

What turned out to be a universal controller that receives wired E1.31 and outputs to 16 relays / SSRs (dimming working but only bench tested), DMX, WS2811/12 pixels, TLS3001 pixels and we have been testing Renard. The Relay/SSR example is around post #34.

I know the posts are more like notes – if you need any more information feel free to ask.

I have a copy of the code and I am assuming that since ElNino put it in the public domain initially that he would be OK with me sharing it.
I never built this, nor can i guarantee the code is the latest, works, etc etc,
But it may save you some typing! Good luck.

Hi Elnino,
Can you add the links again? They are broken.
