Frequently asked
- How many pixels can the Colorlight Z3 drive?
- 8,840,000 pixels in total, across 6 outputs carrying up to 1,473,000 pixels each. Both limits apply — filling every port does not unlock more than the total.
- How many cabinets does the Colorlight Z3 drive?
- INFiLED IRWT0.93-SSC (0.93 mm): 36 cabinets; INFiLED IRWK1.5 (1.56 mm): 102 cabinets; Planar VPI-2.3VX (2.3148 mm): 186 cabinets; AOTO SW3.7 (3.75 mm): 168 cabinets; Samsung IS059C-BL (5.9 mm): 1,248 cabinets. The exact figure depends on the cabinet's pixel count.
- Which panels work with the Colorlight Z3?
- Any cabinet whose receiving card speaks the Colorlight protocol, within the capacity above. Most manufacturers fit the card the customer orders, so confirm the ecosystem with your supplier.
