SPL-3 – 

RGB LED strip driver – DMX-512 and others

 

 

When one of the code from range 571 to 579 will be sign in, we will chose one from nine of 
brightness level – from the lowest to the highest. 

 

It  is  worth  to  notice  that  using  codes  from  561  to  569  and  571  to  579  in  RANDOM 

mode  let  you  for  completely  independent  work  of  SPL-3  controller.  Inputs  IN A  and 
IN B can be disconnect. 

 

Codes 561 ... 569 and 571 ... 579 work also in DMX mode, in a display program, which is 

activated when the signal DMX-512 fail (when the display program was chosen as a reaction 
for signal DMX-512 fail – using code 661). 

 

Codes  560  and  570  working  only  in  RANDOM  mode,  as  in  the DMX mode there is no 

possibility  to  set  in  analogue  steering  signal  on  IN A  and  IN B  inputs,  because  of  the 
possibility of damages the other devices connected to main line DMX. 

 

Codes  600 … 610  are  connected  with  SPL-3  work  with  BUTTONS  mode  (code  551). 

While  one  code  from  600  to  610  is  entered  -  it  set  on  one  from  the  time-delay  which  is 
responsible  for  extension  the  lights  short  press  the  COLOR  button.  The  time  value  which 
respond the particular codes are shown in table 1. 
Description about SPL-3 in BUTTONS mode is in point 3.1. 

 

Codes 621 and 622 activate function DIMMER which is available in all modes of DMX 

work.  Function  DIMMER  let  to  regulate  the  brightness  in  all  exits  at  the  same  time  (CH1, 
CH2 and CH3) using only one channel DMX-512. 

When  the  signal  DMX-512  increased  for  code  621,  the  brightness  of  LED  will  also 

increased. 

When the signal DMX-512 increased for code 622, the brightness of LED will decreased. 

When function DIMMER is not necessary code 620 need to be sign in to turn this function off 

 

Codes  631,  632  and  633  activate  function  STROBO  which  is  available  in  all  modes  of 

DMX work. This function is responsible for blinking effect. The difference between these 3 
codes rely on different length of blinking effect, which means different way of blinking LED 
diodes in the same level of DMX, and the same level of frequency blinking. 

Function  STROBO  is  activate  when  level  of  DMX  >=  20,  which  is  responsible  for  the 

slowest  blinking,  around  1  per  second.  The  highest  frequency  is  for  DMX  =  255  =  several 
blinks per second. 

Code 630 deactivate function STROBO and relieve DMX channel. 

 

Allocation  of  the  sequences  DMX  channels  for  function  DIMMER  and  STROBO  are  in 

points 3.4, 3.5 and 3.6 of this instruction. 

 

Code  651  activate  WHITE  BALANCE.  This  function  have  an  important  meaning  in 

diodes  LED  RGB  and  tapes,  where  despite  of  the  fully  controls,  it’s  not  possible  to  receive 
white colour. It is also useful in few controllers SPL-3 which has a different shade of white 
color. 

 

For  example  when  despite  of  the  fully  controls  in  RGB,  apart  the  white  colour  there  is 

also red noticeable, the max lightness of red colour need to be decreased. 

 

The maximum level for red colour is determine by signing in code 7xx, when xx = 0 to 99. 

 

In the same way you can set the colors level for green, blue by entering 8xx and 9xx.
