Currently i dont stock the panels (might look into it next year)
but they can be gotten for many china suppliers (ray wu, paul zang & ACL member wizard) sell panels tho.
The Hard part is trying to find a decent source of panels that dont have little faults in them (most do)
Also with the Prices of the waterproof Panels being cheaper than normal panels nowdays, the choice gets harder.

I can supply links to the panels i used in them video's if that helps?

Hi Alec,


Thanks, if you could provide some links that would be greatly appreciated. I had a look at Hansonelectronics but he only has the p10s, I think I owuld probably go for two P6's as per your video.


Does wizard stock them in Aus?, be nice to get some for my show this year.


Also I saw you update the panel from your USB key, but how do you do the programming to put on the key?


Cheers

the p6 32x16 panels from ray wu
and here is the p6 32x32 panels from ray wu
an here is the p10 32x16 panels from ray wu (most common for everyone)
but with DHL postage is fast.. so maybe 1-2weeks turnaround

when you place your order a download link will appear for you to download the U-Disk software
then you set your display to what you want, an then it saves to the USB Key, that you update the sign with

I think Hanson is the only one that stocks in the AU.

Hope that helps

Thanks Alec,


That's great - I will check it out and place an order shortly. Just to be clear - I can use any combination of panels?, for example 2 x P10s as opposed to the 5 x 2 setup you had in the video?


Cheers

Hey mate,


Just playing with the Udisk software, how do I tell it that I have more than 1 panel?


Also it's cutting off text greater than 20 characters, it must be something i'm doing. Just can't get work out why there is a character limit.


Cheers

Curious how you change the layout as well. Under settings I see modify, but asks for a password. Assuming I'm heading in the right direction... So far this looks very user friendly and simple to use. Just what I needed for a Tune To sign

yes the admin password is '168' , but once you get in there, thats where you control the layout of the panels, an even how a panel is wired(for panels not in the list)
it stops unwanted people changing the settings, but allows them to change the message only

I will add, software download link becomes available once you purchase the product

Hey Alec,


Cheers for that, i'm looking in the config and trying to modify to make my panel 64 wide x 16 high, which is 2 x P10 Panels side by side I believe.


Even if I choose the nearest in the Size dropdown 64x32 and then click save I get an error saying "The controller height is out of range'


I tried changing the height in the controller on the left but it didnt seem to make a difference.


Any idea what this error means??

Hi Alec,


Just wanted to let you know that after the setup video, I got my panels all up and running. It's so easy to upload the new config, and I like how it's fairly standalone.


Now just to make some sort of enclosure....

More Stock has arrived on the shelf's,
Hopefully they dont sell in 48hrs again.

Thats Great News you found it all very easy to use Christish2006,
I would have to say this is the best/easyest, stand alone controller currently out.
