Page 4: Description
Description PX254 driver is designed to control the LEDs. Built-in DMX receiver allows to control 3 DMX channels. (R, G, B) directly with the DMX protocol. Wide range of power supply voltage and high current carrying capacity outputs (6A) permit a control of large quantities of LEDs. -

especially). Therefore PX254 comes with a very useful function called "white balance". Thanks to it you can choose color correction for each set of LEDs controlled by the device to achieve at full power the color white. The PX254 is produced in common anode version – it allows LEDs connection on common anode. -

6. PX254 should be strictly protected against contact with water and other liquids. 7. All sudden shocks, particularly dropping, should be avoided. 8. The device cannot be turned on in places with humidity exceeding 90%. 9. The device cannot be used in places with temperature lower than 2°C or higher than 40°C. -

Page 16: Master / Slave Function
Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 10 Master / Slave function The PX254 module has a built-in DMX-512 receiver and can be controlled from any desktop or controller running in this standard. Moreover, it is equipped with a programmable function of response to no DMX signal (noS). With 18 built-in default programs, it is possible to obtain interesting effects without an external controller. - Page 17 With this solution, it is possible to make a precise synchronization even in very large installations without using an external controller.

Page 18: White Balance
11 White balance Sometimes, there can be problems with getting white colour on the RGB series LEDs. This may be a result of using diodes with different technical parameters. For this reason, the PX254 module is equipped with a white balance function. -
Page 19: Limiting The Output Power
12 Limiting the output power The white balance parameter, apart from its original functionality, can also be used to limiting the output power of the driver. It works linearly and in a percentage way limits the output power of a given channel. For example, if the bLr parameter is set on 50, it means that by the DMX control and no signal mode this value can not be exceeded. -
Page 20: Smooth
13 Smooth The driver is equipped with a smooth option. Smooth feature allows for smooth changes in lightness and colour. When it is set to On the transition between successive DMX values sent to the lamp (e.g. corresponding to changes in lightness) are smooth with no visible twitches, which prevents the common light “vibrations”... -

This function is extremely useful in applications for the television industry. By applying the "flicker free" technology, it is possible to avoid the unpleasant flickering effect which is caused by improper signal synchronization that controls the LEDs. -

15 Screen saving (screen blanking) The device is equipped with a feature that allows for turning off the backlight. This option is marked with the SCr sign. With this feature, the display is turned off after about 60s (if the keys of the device are not pressed). Of course, the device continues its operation without interfering with other parameters. -

Page 26: Rdm - Available Parameters
19 RDM – available parameters The PX254 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. - Page 27 Parameter name Description manufacturer description, MANUFACTURER_LABEL 0x0081 e.g. name additional device description; It is possible to enter an additional DEVICE_LABEL * 0x0082 device description using up to 32 ASCII characters.
