QuinLED An-Penta-Plus ESPhome configuration example

Back to QuinLED An-Penta-Plus Index

To help out building your own configuration for the QuinLED An-Penta-Plus below is a basic ESPhome configuration as I generally use with the board. This can of course be fully adjusted to whatever your own needs are so treat it as a starting template.

The first part will be the whole config including a simple 5 channel configuration that you can use for 5 white strips for instance. Below that will be an example of adding a RGBCCT LED strip.

In the networking part both WiFi and Ethernet is included but both have been commented out, enable the one you need.
