Continuation of the series of small boards!
With this time something more substantial, the arpower mini.
It is quite simply a single-channel arpower, modeled on the power part of the wilulu.
It is ideal for using two high resolution (12 bit) PWM outputs of the arpschuino².
A suivre...
January 28, 2020
Over time, we have made a number of small utility boards, depending on our needs.
Generally we did not take the time to publish them on this website...
So here's our resolution for the new year : to put online one a month until at least June
We will try to stick to it !
So here is the first: the board voltage regulation.
We start gently, it is a simple voltage regulator but this can be very useful on certain assemblies.
To be continued : a new little board in February.
January 1, 2020
Happy 2020 to all, in 3D !
september 24 2019
Here is a new version of the arpsensorsRF:
The arpsensorsRFregulator.
As the name suggests, it is equipped with a regulation system, which allows to supply it with a voltage between 3.5 and 12v.
The opportunity to build an enclosure with a 14500 li-ion storage slot:
The arpsensorsRF in the classic version remains available for assemblies with a power supply between 2.8V and 3.6V.
august 30 2019
It's the end of the holidays!
Adieu alpine pastures or sunny beach, the arpschuino resumes its activities...
jully 13 2019
For this end of season, we would like to highlight the work, in different areas, two arpschuino users.
Guillaume Cousin and his giant smoke rings of le silence des particules,
and Nicolas Moinet and his incredible Gyrostage, a lyre for fireworks.
Congratulations gentlemen !
ATTENTION: the site will be closed during the month of August.
june 16 2019
We do not give much news, but that does not mean that we do nothing !
A lot of projects in progress but we found the time to get a brand new 3D printer.
A Prusa i3 MK3 S originale. It's just assembled and has not even uttered her first cry !
More on our facebook page !
february 22 2019
Here is a new tutorial !
It's a big tutorial about the wilulu, we tried to be as complete as possible and to put some examples.
As always, do not hesitate to tell us if you find errors or things that do not seem clear to you (arpschuino@gmx.fr).
And again an update of the arpschuino core, this is a debug of some examples, the details are available on this page
Finally, we do not resist the desire to present our new workshop :
And thank you to all the "Moccards team" who welcomes us.
January 25, 2019
A new update to the arpschuino core !
See the previous post to apply this update from the Arduino software.
This is a fix, some examples no longer compile because of a syntax error (calcul_freq instead of rf12_calcul_freq).
We still took the opportunity to make an improvement in the examples and the default code of wilulu:
In order to preserve the li-ion batteries, the wilulu goes to sleep mode if the supply voltage drops below 2.8v.
This should prevent you from damaging accumulators by forgetting to remove them after a performance.
The information on this update is available on this page..
January 15 2019
The library and the arpschuino core have been updated.
To apply this update from the Arduino software, click on Tools / Board / Board Manager then,
if the core is already installed, find it in the list and just click on Update .
In program, new features and possibility to change the transmission/reception frequency of radio boards equipped with an RF12.
The examples have been reviewed in this sense.
New example codes also with the source code of the arptefact::transceiver
and aprschuino2PWM_high_resolution which allows to benefit from the fine gradation (12 bit) directly on 2 outputs of the arpschuino.
All the information on this update is available on this page..
A wilulu tutorial is in preparation, the method for changing the radio frequency will be explained in detail.
Do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions: arpschuino@gmx.fr.
January 1, 2019
Happy New Year.
Thank you to everyone who trusted us in 2018.
november 30, 2018
It's ready !
In addition to our different boards, we have decided to offer you some devices boxed, ready to use :
the artefacts.
Here is the first of the series, the artefact::transceiver.
It is a transceiver to use with our wilulus , arpsensorsRF or with a second artefact::transceiver.
We are already looking at the design of other members of the artefact family.
If you have any ideas, suggestions, let us know: arpschuino@gmx.fr.
October 5 2018
You are many for this early season to trust arpschuino. Thank you !
Our last arpschuino²R5 are gone like hotcakes, we have to deal with the out of stock but here is the arpschuino²R6 :
Only one new, but size: you can now optionally mount a pre-regulator that allow to supplies the board with a voltage of up to 24V.
We are a little late with our transceiver but do not worry, it come !
June 29, 2018
You may have seen it already on our facebook page,
we are manufacturing transceivers based on arpschuino² and arpRF .
We are refining and testing them a little this summer and they will be ready in september.
We are thinking more and more about organizing short courses/initiations. Things are moving forward and should materialize next season. If you are interested do not hesitate to contact us:
arpschuino@gmx.fr.
April 13 2018
Two news little things for this month the arp>terminals
an adapter to terminal blocks for arpschuino, and arpschuino² that goes to revision 5 (R5):
With a new marking of the I/O, compatible with the core arpschuino ,
the zener diode deleted and the addition of a capacitor on the reset line of the serial port.
March 8 2018
Here is the spider board !
It is pluggable on the I²c port of the arpschuino, and allows a 12-bit ultra fine dimming for LED, on 16 circuits.
For LED, the result is much more satisfying than with 8-bit dimming.
The arpschuino core has been updated with the addition of the "arpPCA9685" library for the spider board;
with also a source code for saving power in the examples of the wilulu.
For more information, do not hesitate to contact us: arpschuino@gmx.fr .
February 27, 2018
arpschuino.fr is 3 years old!
A bigger cake this year because the team has grown, we are now 6.
Thanks to you, arpschuino is also a community of users more and more important, thank you all for your confidence.
February 4 2018
After our tutorial program an arpschuino, here is the continuation : program an arpsensor or a wilulu.
Comme l'arpschuino, toutes ces cartes sont reconnues dans le core arpschuino et bénéficient d'une programmation simplifiée.
Nous vous proposons aussi maintenant un programmateur ISP, parfaitement adapté à nos cartes : l'USBasp.
December 30 2017
Looking back on this year 2017.
In France, you are more and more users to trust us, thank you all, it encourages us enormously! Internationals users are also welcome!
We are now 5 in the team, everyone finds his place and we become more and more effective.
On the hardware side, 3 RF boards came this year: the arpsensorsRF, the arpRF and the wilulu.
New boards are in preparation, the spider board and its ultra fine diming, will arrive in January.
We also had great collaborations this year: with the Cirque Inextremiste (Exit),
the Surnatural Orchestra (Esquif),
Groupe Laps (Spider Circus)
and DCA, Philippe Découflé's company, (nouvelles pièces courtes,
currently at Chaillot theater).
We wish you a happy new year.
december 12 2017
Reprogramming the arpschuino becomes much simpler with the creation of the "arpschuino core".
All our programmable boards are now recognized by the Arduino IDE, all libraries and source codes are automatically imported.
Thanks to Anton Langhoff for his work !
The arpschuino programming tutorial has been fully reviewed.
We now have a USB>serial programmer perfectly suited to arpschuino and cheap.
A programmer for the arpsensors , arpsensorsRF and wilulu will be available soon.
november 5 2017
The arpRF connector is now equipped with a keying.
The transmitter could be damaged as a result of bad connections, so we decided to fix it !
Continue anyway to put the arpschuino² jumper in 3V position before connecting the arpRF and unplug the arpRF before reprogramming if you use a programmer in 5V.
The tutorial on programming is being redone and will be online soon.
october 20 2017
Announced for a long time, here is the wilulu
It is a small pocket dimmer, controlled by radio link from a computer or a light console and capable of dimming up to 8A.
Already used in show, they are used in Exit from Inextremiste circus
and Esquif from surnatural orchestra.
octobber 2 2017
A new revision of the arpschuino², with the addition of a reset pin on the I2C port.
Concretely this will allow to reset the arpschuino² remotely from the arpdress board, notably in the case of a boxing.
For arpdress board: new, more readable encoders.
The microcontroller is now directly soldered to the board and the arpdress board is now delivered in a small anti-static box
july 19 2017
Arpschuino.fr is currently on vacation.

A new PCB for the arpower :
The features do not change but the connectors are flat now, the fixing holes have been enlarged and the serigraphy have been improved.
the arpower's assembly guide have been revised for the occasion.
may 05 2016
Arpschuino's source codes have been revised:
They are available on the download page
The features do not change but the functions (for signal LED and adressing) are now in separate files.
This should improve the readability of source code and allow, for those who want to reprogram the arpschuino, to edit more easily.
I tried to comment to make it as comprehensible as possible but but do not hesitate to contact us for more information :
arpschuino@gmx.fr
mars 26 2016
This is an XLR version of the arpschuino² :
XLR can come in 3 or 5 pins. Classicals green connectors are still available.
The new PCB allows to choose one of these three options.
For those who prefer one with a remote connection, we also offer new XLR adapter on PCB:
The metalics ones are still available.
thank to Eric Julou for his decisive help.

It's called arpsensors :
L'idée est de est de relier divers capteurs analogiques à un arpschuino ou autre (arduino, jeeNode...).
Il embarque un petit microcontrôleur (Attiny84) chargé d'un pré-traitement, d'un lissage des données et de renvoyer les informations via une liaison I2C.
Il est actuellement en phase de tests dans le cadre du travail pour Perturbation, le prochain spectacle de la compagnie 1-0-1 (Pschuuu!).
En avant première une vidéo des dernieres avancées, avec le grand jet piloté par divers capteur sur le corps.
Lorsque l'arpsensors sera suffisament testé et éprouvé, nous vous la proposerons sur ce site
Si ça vous intéresse et si vous voulez plus d'infos, n'hésitez pas à nous écrire : arpschuino@gmx.fr .
