[QUOTE="algerdes, post: 101807, member: 3750"] There is a real good reason to be asking this question right now. Our standard pixel, today, has 3 LEDs in the package. One red, one green, one blue. It takes a channel to control each of these colors. Hence the statement that it takes 3 channels per pixel/node. As pixel/node technology gets farther down the road, we are starting to see some pixels that have 4, 5, 6 or more LEDs per pixel/node. Not only our current Red, Green, Blue, but also Violet, Amber, actual White (not the blended we do to make white) and others. For each of these LEDs that are added to the pixel/node package, another channel must be assigned. I have some pixels I'm using for some stage work where it takes 6 channels for each pixel/node. I don't see this coming to DIYC any time soon, but the R,G,B,W or R,G,B,A versions are just around the corner for some of us. [/QUOTE]

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