Pixel Information

• 

EDGE fixtures use 4 DMX channels per pixel in an RGBW configuration for each 2-foot-long pixel, but only 
the first three channels (RGB) are used (EDGE fixtures only contain red, green and blue LEDs). 

• 

When installing the system, check the length of the string of fixtures for each part of the building where the 
fixtures will be installed.  Do not connect more than 88 feet of fixtures to the 1A LED output, and do not 
connect a total of more than 88 feet of fixtures to the Driver 1 outputs (1A and 1B).  The same limits apply 
to the Driver 2 outputs (2A and 2B).  The B outputs (1B and 2B) have a limit of 40 feet.  G&G recommends 
that the split be as even as possible within these limits. For example, if possible, split 88 feet into a 48-foot 
string and a 40-foot string, or split 72 feet into two 36-foot strings.

• 

Please contact the G&G support team before making any changes to the layout of fixtures and leaders.  
The system has limits on how many fixtures and pixels can be connected to each driver and each output, 
and the support team will be able to tell if a change to the original layout will work or not.

• 

Consult the following table for the maximum lengths for each output and the mapping of EDGE pixels to 
each LED output.
