3 Paths to Pixel Bright Sequences

Our new Pixel Bright Sequence Layout supports three configuration options, depending on how you want to control your show, what equipment you may already own, and your willingness to explore and learn the customization side of our software.

Easiest Setup

Best for users with directors

Download a Compact Preview

Download a free, ready-made "Compact Preview" with 1-4 ELOR networks to power modified Pixel Bright sequences. Choose the design that best matches your setup plans, then use with ELOR USB-485 Adapters or Directors.

No Custom Layout Designing required
Use a Showtime Director, computer or Touch Player for playback
Maximize the capacity of a Director or 4-Port USB Adapter with your favorite props, in a pre-designed layout.

Default Layout

Pixel Bright Network Overview

Creating your own custom preview is always the best option, but you can also use our default layout to run your show!

To use the default layout, configure your controllers to match the settings below (or use your package Quick Guide), and all of the effects stay stored in the default sequence as you play your show, even if you don't yet own the props. This means next year, you can connect a new CPC Package (following this diagram), and the effects are there - ready to play.

Additional Props / Special Notes

The default Preview contains an additional set of 4 Snowflakes, 4 Spinners, 4 Frames, 2 Rooflines (as Door and Garage Outlines), and 2 Crystal Snowflakes.

The duplicate props above are configured in the default preview to "use the same channels as" the original CPC Package, allowing you to simply buy a second package and integrate these props into your display. More advanced users can create a custom preview to daisy chain the duplicate props from ports on their current controllers, within networking limits.

8 Candy Canes are shown in the preview, and sequenced separately as two groups of 4. The Candy Canes near the Lollipops are often sequenced with complimentary Candypack effects. The Candy Canes near the Mega Trees often have different sequencing, designed for Candy Canes elsewhere as distinct props in your show.

Traditional Light Setup

Use these arrangements for AC lights & controllers. RGBPlus builds on the controller layouts in our Traditional Layout. For more details on decorating with traditional lights, explore the Traditional Layout Setup Guide.

Traditional / Deluxe Set Up

Controller 01

Four groups of four fixtures (Does not have to be the same props we have decorated in the picture)

Controller 02

Four fixtures, each with four different colored light strings, taking up 4 channels each (4x4=16)

Controller 03

Two groups of 8 fixtures (like two arches, two small mega trees, two sets of 8 yard props)

One set of 16 (like a 16 strand mega tree)

Controller 04

Two groups of 8 fixtures (like two arches, two small mega trees, two sets of 8 yard props)

Two groups of 8, each with 2 colors of lights on separate channels (8x2=16)

Configuring Your PixieLink

Getting Started

Plug your 12v adapter into the Pixielink. Plug your CAT5e/CAT6 cable into your computer (or Touch Player) and into the back of the Pixielink

Note: This configuration does not utilize a router or network switch. Advanced users may configure the network differently, but doing so is not necessary for this setup.

Configure your Touch Player / Show PC Ethernet Settings

This configuration assumes you have a WiFi connection for accessing the internet. Your computer's ethernet port will be used to connect to the PixieLink.
If needed, you can purchase a separate wired or WiFi network adapter if you're using a wired LAN connection for internet access.

Access the Windows Control Panel by navigating to Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network Connections Window.
Open the Ethernet object then click Properties.
Find and select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) then click Properties. Enter the IP address such as 192.168.1.200 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 then click OK.
Click OK on the Ethernet Properties Window and then Close the Ethernet Status and Network Connections windows.

Configure your PixieLink Port Configuration

Access your PixieLink's webpage by opening your web browser. Type 192.168.1.206 in your browser's address bar and press Enter. Use this page to configure PixieLink Port and DMX universe settings.
To use a PixieLink and the default Pixel Bright layout, your PixieLink should be configured to operate on DMX universes 1 - 192. If you're using a custom PixieLink network layout, your setup may look a little different than what's shown here.

Match your screen to one of the configurations below.

Pre-configured	Blank configuration

If your PixieLink is already configured for universes 1–192, you're all set. Continue to the next step below.	If your port screen is blank, download the Pixel Bright configuration file and load it into your PixieLink. Right click and "save as" to download this Pixel Bright PixieLink Configuration File. In your PixieLink, switch to the Port Config page, click Load Configuration and select the downloaded file. Click Save Configuration

Adding the PixieLink to the Light-O-Rama Control Panel

Click on Controller Setup, and select Configure a controller with a web-based setup page.
Click the 192.168.1.200 network, and click Scan. Your PixieLink will appear below in the Scan Results. Click Add As and select E1.31 (sACN).

If your scan returns no results, refer to the Online Manual for more assistance →.
On the Controller setup window, leave Start Universe at 1, and change End Universe to 192. Click Save.
Navigate to the Networks tab and verify your Pixielink is now configured - you should see a green checkmark to indicate it's connected.

Sequence Playback

Test in the Light-O-Rama Sequencer
1. Ensure that your Light-O-Rama Control Panel is running.
2. Ensure Control Lights in the Sequencer, and playback a single Pixel Bright sequence. Ensure this is a default Pixel Bright sequence, not an RGBPlus sequence.
Playback a Show: Use the standard Create Shows process to playback your show playlist.
