SOMEONE TOLD ME THAT I COULD LOWER THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE TO MAKE THE LIGHTS DIMMER. IS THAT TRUE AND HOW CAN I DO IT . THANKS FOR THE HELP NO. The board (and lights) is designed to run from a set voltage. Dimming is done by PWM (amount of time the light is on) control. A Pixcon user will have to step up. ( I use Pixies. I can use the HU to set the overall Max intensity) or you can modify the sequence by dimming the over bright nodes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k6ccc Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 You can dim it in settings on the PixCon - FAR easier than modifying all your sequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimehc Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 there are 3 options - 1) Controller Settings - 2) Prop Definition Setting - 3) Sequence Intensity Setting I would choose option 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARDING DISPLAY Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 what is prop definition setting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimehc Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) Double click the Prop in your Preview to open Prop Definition > "Dimming Curve" Drop down box (Top Left) > "PixelCurve --%" for RGB pixels (most folks use 30%) or for AC lights LinearCurve % ... After making preview adjustments - just reopen existing sequences - and recreate your show card. Edited August 4, 2021 by Jimehc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
