PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
RUNNING-LIGHT is an SPI controller for pixel-to-pixel LED control on digital (programmable/addressable) LED strips, which can be
connected to a SELV constant voltage (5 ÷ 24) Vdc power supply. The controller is suitable for driving loads such as Digital LED-
strips and RGB or WWW LED modules at constant voltage. It can be controlled locally via Normally Open (N.O.) pushbutton or
remotely via DALI (Digital Addressable Lighting Interface) digital protocol.
RUNNING-LIGHT can deliver a maximum output current of 7 A and has the following protections: over-voltage and under-voltage
protections, reverse polarity protection and input fuse protection.
Through the Dalcnet LightApp
is possible to configure multiple parameters when the device is switched OFF, including up to 10 different light effects, colour,
speed, direction, pixel length, and transition parameters. Dalcnet LightApp
Store and Google Play Store.
