Hi Tim,

Here you are.

See the SDCard section in https://github.com/vanvught/h3dmx512-zip for how to create the SDCard for the initial installation.

RemoteConfigUI.jar.zip

The remote config UI is not finished; the Wizard is not implemented, yet.

For testing, I have connected 5 RGB led's.

Looks great!

The PCA9685 handles 12 bit, should probably use 2x artnet channels for fine dimming control?

I've just polished the 2 years old code ;-) which is just using a single channel. I will add the 12-bit support to my ToDo list.

Hi Tim,

I have added a new property #use_8bit=0

So per default it is 2 dmx channels per pwm channel:
