Description The PX763 is a 36-channel current driver created with a view to RGB and RGBW matrix systems, which is perfectly suitable for controlling lighting of large surfaces consisting of a lot of module elements. Facades may be such an example – LED screens or illuminated floors. Using the built-in DMX signal receiver, it is possible to control all 36 channels with the DMX512 protocol.
Safety conditions The PX763 36 x 350mA Matrix is a device powered with safe voltage up to 12 V; however, during its installation and use the following rules must be strictly observed: 1. The device may only be connected to 12 V DC (stabilized voltage) with current-carrying capacity compatible with technical data.
DMX signal connection PX763 must be connected to DMX line in series. This means that DMX IN terminals in the device must be provided with a driving cable, and then from DMX OUT connector the driving cable must be provided to other DMX receivers.

The set address will be assigned to the first channel, next DMX addresses will be assigned to next channels. For example, if the value is set on 100, it means that first channel will have an address DMX 100, second 101 …...
6.3 Operation mode The PX763 driver can work in the effect mode (EFF), the 36-channel one (36) or the 36-channel plus dimmer one (36d). In order to select the mode, enter Cbn function and then select 36 for the 36-channel mode or EFF for the 4-channel mode (effect) and confirm with the key "enter".

P01 – P18 – you can use 18 ready programmes. For each of them there is a possibility to set a playback speed SPd (the value from 0.1 and 99.9 seconds), smoothness of step changes in the programme FAd (from 0 i.e. an abrupt transition to 100 i.e. a completely smooth transition) and a value of dimming (the value from 0 to 255).
6.5 The smoothing function The device has also the smoothing option. Smoothing allows for smooth brightness and colour changes. When the function is on, the transition between further DMX values sent to the lamp (e.g. responsible for brightness) occurs smoothly without obvious jerks, which prevents the effects of "vibrations"...
6.6 Frequency of PWM signals The Frq function allows you to set the base frequency to drive LEDs. This function is extremely useful for applications in the television industry. By using the "flicker free" technology, you can avoid an unpleasant image flicker effect caused by a lack of appropriate synchronization of LED driving signal.
6.7 Minimum level of brightness The function of setting the minimum level of brightness (OFS) has been implemented in the PX763 device, which can be set in the range 0 – 100. The way it functions is presented in the diagram below:...
Sometimes, there may be problems achieving white colour on the LEDs of RGB series. This may be due to the use of diodes with different technical parameters. For this reason, the PX763 module is equipped with a white balance function (bAL). This option allows you to select the proper colour temperature for the full control of all outputs (white colour) in the range of 0 –...
NEXT 6.10 Temperature The PX763 was equipped with the possibility to check the temperature inside the device. If the temperature exceeds 70°C, there is a linear limitation of the device power until the outputs will be switched off completely when the temperature reaches 90°C.
(using the key “prev”) ENTER In order to make use of this option, disconnect the PX763 from the mains supply. Before reconnecting it to the mains supply, the key "prev" should be pressed and held. Then, after switching on the message dFI will appear on the screen of the device (while turning the power supply on to the moment of displaying the message dFI the key "prev"...
Err message – memory error The device is equipped with a built-in memory work control function. If there are problems with the memory operation on the PX763 display, the Err message appears – memory error. In this situation, select the “enter” key. The device will reload the default configuration and upload it to the memory.
6.13 Rotation of the display If necessary, you can rotate the display without rotating the whole device. Just hold two middle buttons ("prev" and "next") at the same time for approximately 3s. NOTE: In addition to the display, the order of the buttons is also changed in terms of places.
6.14 Service mode The service mode allows to turn the chosen channel on for 100% quickly. NOTE: The input in the service mode switches DMX control automatically. ENTER NEXT NEXT In order to switch it on, go to the initial menu and simultaneously press the keys “esc”...
RDM description of available parameters The PX763 supports the DMX – RDM protocol. DMX protocol allows only of a one-way data transmission, while its extension the RDM protocol can transmit information in two directions. This makes possible to simultaneously send and receive information, and hence the possibility of monitoring activities of the compatible devices.
