5PixLite 16 Older Revs User Manual V1.7 © 2015 Advatek Lights Pty Ltd3. – Installation3.1 - Power and LinksThe PixLite 16 has two split power banks, each with 8 individual outputs. The split banks allow twodifferent voltages to be used on the controller simultaneously. (You could run 5v lights off one bankand 12v lights off the other one for example.)Output FusesOn board revisions up to 3.3, each individual channel output is protected by a self-resetting polyfuse.These are rated to handle up to 5A @ 25˚C.After board revision 3.4 each individual channel output is protected by a 4A mini blade fuse. Thesemay be changed to a higher or lower value depending on your specific application, provided anyindividual output does not exceed 7A and the total bank current capacity does not exceed 32A.Power LinksBoard Rev 3.2The board comes shipped from the factory with 3AG 30A fast blow fuses for fuse 1 and fuse 2 for thepower banks.Before connecting any power to the board, the power link options must be setup correctly to ensuresafe and proper power operation. There are two main power configuration links L1 and L2 on theboard, as shown below. L2 selects where the 5V VCC logic power for all the on-board logic circuitry isderived from. There are three main jumper configurations for this jumper link as follows:Configuration A:Logic power is derived directly from either the bank 1 or bank 2 power input. In order to use thisconfiguration, the voltage being supplied to the corresponding power bank must be 5V DC +-10%.Exceeding 5V or reversing polarity for the VCC logic will destroy the on-board logic ICs as there is noprotection. The L2 jumper should be in the 1-2 or ‘A’ position for this configuration as shown infigure 2.Figure 2A B C
