Hello all:
I have a new P12S which I have configured and is working with my LOR 3.9 software. I have tested several pixel types and they are all working just fine when hooked directly to the P12S.
I also have a couple PPD-C's and PPR-A's that I haven't gotten to work. I don't see much on the forums about these, so the reason I'm posting this.
Again; I'm running 12v pixels and I can't seem to get any lights. I did notice on the J1Systems page Ed talks about a DC-DC converter. This may be the missing piece, but I'm not sure. If so does anyone have a link to the part I would need?
I'm not electrical expert, but I seem to get things working by reading and re-reading these pages. Thanks for any help in advance!

the PP* have onboard 5V converters (at least the ones I have). You can probably check the voltage at the output pins and confirm -- suspect its 5V
