HalloweenLights

Have you done anything with your house using a PLC?

I was bored, so I connected the LED lights above the garage to an old Micrologix1000.
I used Orange Solo Cups to make the lights Halloween colors.
The LED lights are setup in pairs, so I couldn't get them to chase like I wanted.
The Electronics in the dimmers won't let you blink them too fast anyway.

At the end of the Video, there are some links to real Halloween light shows.

LOL! Cool. Now you need to mix in some tracks from the Trans Siberian Orchestra.

A friend (who worked with drives) would set up cables and pulleys all around his property. Ghosts and other creatures would "fly" around in the dark.

Sounds nice.
-Hi, what was your last project.
-Hm, nothing special, I was doing some positioning of ghosts and witches.

It looked a little better after dark.

We did get a lot more gremlins. 144 this year.
Don't think my lights had anything to do with it though.

Here is the Zombie box, or casket knocker MicroLogix program.
