brichi Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I want to buy a few of these - http://store.lightorama.com/rgbfl10wa.html will these run off my regular pixie4 controller? it says """ Requires a DC-PWM driver for RGB effects (use the CMB24D)""" do i really need a 24 port dumb controller or can i just use the pixie i have, thanks!

B.Y.R.G. Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 I will confirm what LOR has stated. You need a dumb controller to run those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brichi Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) that kinda sucks in a way, i want 1 flood for over my doorway so i need to buy a 24 output $110 controller to do so? Edited February 27, 2017 by brichi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Laff Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 If you have a dmx network setup you can buy a simple 3 channel dumb controller for about $10.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDucks Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 remember the output is 24 Monochrome ports or 8 RGB ports (any combination) also you will need 1 or 2 power supplies to fully use the board which is divided into 2 banks of 12 mono ports. Bank 1 must be 12V or you need an AUX 12V PSU I am waiting for the LOR sale , hoping these will be one of the items. I will be using groups of 3 ports to drive each Candy Cane Propeller (each cane now contains White LED strips). So, there are lots of uses for DUMB ports, Let your imagination loose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Simmons Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 If you want a smaller board, LOR sells a 16-channel DC board. (CMB16D) One PS of 200W or more will power the CMB24D quite nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
