[QUOTE="i13, post: 114900, member: 21708"] If they're able to chase up and down the string of lights AND each light can change colour then they're likely to be pixels. You might be able to replace the original controller on them with something that's computer controlled instead. A few popular options include: [LIST] [*]Falcon: [URL]https://www.pixelcontroller.com/store/index.php?id_category=12&controller=category[/URL] [*]PixLite: [URL]https://www.advateklights.com/products/pixel-control[/URL] [*]Kulp: [URL]https://kulplights.com/[/URL] [/LIST] At this stage, I wouldn't commit to buying a controller. We don't yet know what type of pixels these are. Some controllers only support certain types of pixels. The safest (but not guaranteed until we know the pixel type) option is probably a Falcon F16v3 or F4v3 because these can simultaneously have a different type of pixel on every output. Note that I'm referring to the signal type that the pixel uses. You can still mix nodes and strip if they use a signal type that the controller supports. It is also possible to mix 5V and 12V pixels on the same controller output if you power inject (connecting the lights directly to a power supply instead of powering them through the controller). How many wires run between the existing controller and the string of pixels? [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
