PIXELATOR MINI

A smart, cost-effective lighting control solution, the PIXELATOR MINI is a compact rack, surface & DIN-rail mountable, eDMX to LED pixel protocol converter capable of outputting up to 32 universes of data.

SKU: 70067

16-Universe+ Ethernet to SPI pixel converter with overdrive mode.

ENTTEC are proud to have pioneered the introduction of user-friendly web browser interfaces in the lighting control sector. Just like all ENTTEC network products, simply connect to your PIXELATOR MINI from anywhere on the same network using your favourite web browser to configure, manage and update your device settings. It’s that simple!

That’s right! Although ostensibly a 16-universe LED controller, the PIXELATOR MINI will efficiently convert up to 32 universes of DMX-over-Ethernet to PLink pixel data (4U per output), with auto-activation of Overdrive Mode when configured to output more than 2U per port – because you never know when you might need that little bit extra.

Jam-packed with features to make your installation run smoothly. Select any input universe number and assign it to any output port, or reduce your DMX input control channel count by creating pixel groups. Choose from static or DHCP network configurations, and configure pixel ordering with ease to patch any standard fixture type in your lighting controller. The list goes on!

The PIXELATOR MINI features an internal buffer and sync logic to ensure all eight PLink output ports stay perfectly synchronised, and thanks to ArtSync, multiple devices on your project will always be perfectly synchronised. You can be confident that with an ENTTEC system you can build vast LED matrixes spanning multiple devices without experiencing any jitter, lag or content tearing on the output of your pixels. Put simply, everything works as you’d expect it to.

Control up to 32 universes of pixels (4,096 RGBW / 5,440 RGB / 16,384 W), and output more than 20 different built-in pixel protocols. What’s more, you can output up to two different protocols simultaneously: one using ports 1-4 and the other via ports 5-8. In the event of a missing protocol, our custom feature allows users to create their own protocol for any desired pixel fixture anytime – without having to submit a support request for new firmware.

The PIXELATOR MINI has been engineered with surge protection for serious 24/7 operation. If your data cabling has a fault that causes a spike in voltage, a heavy-handed installer gives it static shock, or maybe your DMX lines have a lot of electrical noise on them, the issue won’t be passed through the device to your other equipment. Any disturbance is automatically suppressed.

Let’s get started!

It’s so easy to produce great shows over long distances with a PIXELATOR MINI as part of your lighting kit. Follow this short demonstration to learn about the essential features of the device, and see how simple it is to convert DMX Ethernet to SPI pixel protocols.
You’ll be thrilling your audiences in no time!

 NOTE: The Pixelator Mini has seen a number of handy capability upgrades and a very subtle visual tweak since this unboxing video was made using the REV B unit. The core functionality of the Pixelator Mini remains the same, but be sure to have a good read of this webpage for all the latest information and available features.
