2. INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
This chapter species the requirements for safety, mechanism, electricity and control software of APIX6T
LED display.
Warning: This LED indoor product is designed for outdoor. Both outdoor and indoor can be used.
2.1 Mechanical Requirements
Weight Warning: Do not underestimate the weight of a complete APIX6T LED display. Be sure that The
oor or truss installation on which the APIX6T display has to be installed is capable of Handling ve (5)
times the complete load of the display. For oor mounting, conclude the weight of any other load.
Caution: One APIX6T tile weighs approximately 13.5 kg.
Horizontal surface
For oor installation, the oor on which APIX6T display is installed must be horizontal. Never install LED
display on a slant surface.
Ballast
Depending on the height of the display and the position of the LED display upon the foot beams (some-
where between front and middle) additional weight (ballast)will be required.
Truss beam
The truss beam has to be provided and installed by the customer. Pay attention to following points for
installation design and preparation. Calculate precisely for on individual basis.
Weight tolerances:
Ensure that the truss beam and the ceiling against which the truss beam has to be installed is able to han-
dle the complete weight of the APIX6T LED display.
Ceiling stability.
Installation ambience
Environmental conditions: humidity, ventilation, temperature, etc.
Location: Altitude, etc.
Front clearances: for optimal eect, ensure that enough free space is supplied in front of the LED display
and respect the minimum viewing distance.
Comply with local regulations regarding such installations.
Warning: Suspending installation is limited to 15 tiles in vertical direction.
2.2 Electrical Requirements
Power requirements
The displaying area of one APIX6T tile is 0.460 m². APIX6T LED tiles have pixel densities (see Appendix A –
technical specications). For dierent pixel densities, one APIX6T tile may need power supply of 0.6 amps
to 1.5 amps at 220 VAC, 100-250 VAC, 50-60 Hz. Each APIX6T tile has one input and one output socket of AC
power. The power is distributed to display tiles by power split cables from power distributor. However, one
power split cable can be connected with 8 – 20 tiles in parallel. So, one power split cable has to be provid-
ed for every 8 – 20 tiles. Protect every power cable by a circuit breaker or fuses rated 16 A / 250 VAC (15 A /
110 VAC in the USA and Canada). PROLIGHTS provides a range of power distributor to satisfy the demands
of your LED display. See more details for power distributor of LED display in Power Distribution Section.
Contact PROLIGHTS for more information.

APIX6T
Power system
It is recommended to use power distribution system with a separate neutral and grounding
conductor to avoid large current loops due to voltage dierences in the neutral conductor.
•Protecttheelectricalinstallationbyswitch,circuitbreaker,over-voltageprotector,defectivegrounding
circuit breaker with proper rated power.
•Installthedisplayinaccordancewithlocalelectricalinstallationstandards.InEurope,complywith
EN 60364, the standard for electrical installation of buildings. In Germany, comply with EN 60364. In
America, comply with National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70.
Protective grounding
To prevent against the risk of electric shock, the installation should be properly grounded. Defeating
the purpose of grounding will expose you to the risk of electric shock.

3.5 LED Display Components
APIX6T Tile
APIX6T LED display is built with APIX6T tiles. A tile consists of die-casting aluminum frames in
high accuracy, APIX6T display modules, switching power supply, receiver cards, and some other
mechanical and electrical connection parts. The APIX6T die-casting aluminum frame adopts one
time die-casting and CNC precision processing technology with high quality aluminum to ensure the
high accuracy of the frame and the uniformity of the whole display.
The introduction of the main components of APIX6T tile is shown as below with related images.
3.6 Die-Casting Aluminum Frame
Each die-casting aluminum frame is installed with four APIX6T display modules. There are LED
signal receiver cards and low voltage DC switching power supply inside the frame, and they all have
electrical connection with 6 modules. There are special designs for xing and connecting the tiles at
each side of the die-casting aluminum frame. The frame has attachment points at the back and four
corners. The attachment points are to x the tiles to the supports like steel structures and buildings.
APIX6T
11
Side fast lock
Module
1. APIX6T tile has 6 grids for 6 modules to be xed in. Each grid has 8 screws to x one module. The precise
positioning ensures the precise position of all modules. Keep screws clean to achieve smooth installation
of the modules and avoid seams between tiles and uneven pixel pitches.
2. Each of the four corners at the back of APIX6T die-casting aluminum frame has a xed screw hole to sup-
port the installation. Each side of the upper frame has fast locks used for the precise connection between
the upper and lower tiles.
Warning:
A maximum of 15 tiles are limited to stack up or suspend without the external support.

APIX6T
3.7 APIX6T Module
APIX6T module includes plastic cover, PCBA, plastic mask, etc. At the back of the plastic base
frame, Both front and back service design. Over the lamps, replaceable masks are equipped to
protect the LED lamps and PCB and increase the use life of display. PROLIGHTS choose the best
full color SMD LED lamps as materials. Which lead to high uniformity and perfect show eect .The
use of black organic silicone makes the black LED lamps darker to improve the contrast of the
display signicantly.
APIX6T tile includes 2×3 modules. Each module has 2 kinds of pixel pitch (mm): PH 6.67mm &
PH 8 mm with the corresponding module resolution (pixel) of 96×108 & 80×90. The weight of each
display module is about 0.95kg.
Warning:
APIX6T die-casting aluminum frame can only install APIX6T display modules.
3.8 Socket and Plug for Power and Data Connection
The following two types of socket and plug are respectively used for the power and data connection
between APIX6T display tiles. Both data and power socket is for the data or power connection
between upper and lower tiles.
APIX6T
13
3.9 LED Receiver Card
Each APIX6T tile has one receiver card for receiving and transmitting the data of LED display .
The functions of the MRV220 receiver card are shown as below:
• Power supply: 3.3 - 5.0V
• Temperature monitoring(standard feature)
