1. Product Description
The PC Live Control System, LT-5100, is a LED control system which is used for controlling building brightness, indoor
and outdoor, as well as playing video. The customers can show contents according to their own ideas，through the
real-time control and transmission by computer, Any image can be shown in the LED screen. Figure 1 is the controller
appearance..
Figure 1
2. Product Features
Synchronous control system by computer，Whatever is shown in the computer also can be shown synchronously in the
LED screen.
Using the latest control technology to overcome the complicate connection shortage. Enable the connection simple, and
the production, engineering and maintenance easy and convenient.
Using standard Ethernet output to enable the transmission distance unrestricted.
Using advanced image processing software technology，no need additional graphic cards and sending cards. It can be
controlled by desktop or notebook PC, very easy for debugging and demonstration.
Contrast control, full color, rich picture stunt display.
It can implement image segmentation and synchronous display, and suitable for large screen and high density display
control.
Nice anti-jamming capabilities and auto-recover after failure.
3. Performance parameters.
A single controller can control max 15360 LED pixels which can form in width and length at will..
Multi-controllers can be used meanwhile to control a larger screen.
Signal output type: SPI (TTL).
Contrast: Every single color has 65536 steps, increase from step 32 in turn, forming 16,777,216 true colors.
Frame rate: 30 frames /s.
Screen refresh rate: 120Hz～3000Hz.
Control mode: Full color synchronous control by computer.
Power input:12V DC 1000mA；
Maximum power:3W；

4. Connection Mode
4．1 The connection of computer and controller
The connection of the computer and controller through the Ethernet is shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2
4．2 The connection of controller and pixel screen
Figure 3
LT-5100 PC Real-time Video Controller V7.6 Page 5 of 22
4．3 The connection of controller and digital tube
Figure 4
Connection Description:
1．Each controller has 15 splitters, which are connected with the controller’s ports by using
16PIN line, each splitter has two outlets, total 30 outlets;
2．The splitter outputs TTL signal, max 20m between splitter and the led lights;
3．Each splitter can run max 512 pixel dots. For example: If adopting 16 segment digital tube,
namely an output can control 32pcs of digital lamp tubes, but better control below 20
meters to reach a perfect effect.
4．4The connection of multi-controllers
When a single controller is not enough to control the entire screen, Multiple controllers are
needed to work together, The connection is shown as in Figure 5. At the same time The
controllers shall be identified with number through the dip switch.

Figure 5
5. Setting Controller Number:
Two ways to set: automatically distribution and manually setting：
1）Put the dip switch at “OFF”, the controller will distribute a respective IP and a serial number for
each controller automatically;
2）Manual setting:
When multi-controllers work together, you need to set serial number to every controller(for
details , pls see《Table 5.1》).Through DIP switch the controller can change its serial number. The
DIP switch has 8 dials, from dial 1 to dial 8,each dial has 2 states，switch to “ON” denoting “0”，
otherwise denoting “1”. 8 dials of the DIP switch compose a 8 binary digit，NO 1 is the highest，
NO 8 is the lowest，the DIP switch is as shown in Figure 6;
LT-5100 PC Real-time Video Controller V7.6 Page 7 of 22
Figure 6
When using a single controller independently, please set the controller number as 0, and its
responding switch state as “00000000”.
The relationship of the serial number of the controller and the IP address of the controller is
shown as in Table 5.1.For example, to No 0, switch state is “00000000”，The corresponding IP
address is “192.168.18.60”；DIP switch state is “01111100”, namely No. 124，Its corresponding IP
address “192.168.18.184” can be found from Table 5.1.
Table 5.1 the IP address correspond to the DIP switch
