Aqualed arduino dimmable led controller with nextion lcd support

[mathom]

Hi everyone,

 

I'm new here, I've been active mostly on polish forums. I've wrote an arduino controller for DIY lamp (default 8 PWM channels, expandable to n-channels) with full touch LCD panel (Nextion lcd) and temperature/cooling support. It was written mostly for polish nano-reef.pl community, but I've decided to share it with other communities.

 

It's open source, available on github: https://github.com/mathompl/AquaLed

 

Some features:

-    6 channel PWM control of LED modules (drivers), with I2C module up to 512 (up to 8 channels on LCD)
-    programmable light hours with sunsets and sunrises
-    night light support
-    3 digital thermometers with asynchronous temperature read, for: water, lamp and addictional lamp or sump, controlling 3 separate relays (cooling fans)
-    customizable dimming, linear or logarithmic algorith
-    bluetooth compatibility with AQma Led Control by Maqu http://magu.pl/aqma-led-control
-    full configuration and status using Nextion 2.8" LCD with touch support, including: operational hours, sunset & sunrise hours, thermometers, dimming times, schedule, night mode etc.
-    override programs: off, night and user accessible from LCD
-    date/time support with RTC module
-    screen saver with water temperature and time
-    test mode
-    all settings stored in EEPROM
-    works on Arduino Nano

 

Please feel free to use it and send feedback

 

ps. been using it on my 250L reef for one month now.
