How to Select Pixel LED Type In The Controller

How to Select Pixel LED Type In The controller? Pixel LED strings or strips are named after the pixel LED drive chip names that are used in that strip or string. Some pixel LED controllers to require to select the pixel LED type manually. Since there is limited space in the display, Pixel LED Drive chips are represented by two-digit numbers. The chip codes and matching pixel LED driving IC numbers are shown below. Usually, The first two digits in your pixel LED controller display the selected drive chip code.

How to Select Pixel LED Chip?

Use the “CHIP” button to cycle through different pixel LED drive chip codes. When the code you want appears on the display, release the “CHIP” button. There is no need to re-select the chip once it has been selected unless you are changing the type of pixel LED strip or string.

These are the most typical codes for pixel LED-based strips and strings. These codes, however, may vary from one manufacturer to another. These codes are often listed on the controller's back. These codes are only functional if your controller is compatible with the specific pixel LED driving chip. Therefore, before choosing the pixel LED strip or string for your controller, it is crucial to read the user manual.
