Glo
Pixel Series
A 5V 3-Pin Compatible, WiFi connected controller
Introducing Pixel
Expandable I/O
Surge Protection Capacitors
Support for 5V 3-Pin RGB Strips
Wi-Fi Compatible Microprocessor
Customizable LED Connector
The Pixel Series Controllers are Glo's 3-Pin Compatible LED variant. Spark is designed to control 5V ARGB Strips and other 3-Pin LED products.
Pixel features a microprocessor with integrated WiFi, allowing for control via its app or a smart speaker. This processor is reprogrammable and features several I/O pins, allowing it to be modified or interfaced with external sensors or modules.
Pixel is fitted with a standardized screw terminal connector and will ship with a Dupont LED adapter. This allows for strips of all types to be connected in indoor/rugged conditions

What LED strips do Glo support?Glo is capable of controlling WS2812B, SK6812, SMD 5050 and other 3-pin/4-pin LED strips (compatibility varies by model). Different models of Glo can control different types of LEDs, so make sure to check the product page for compatibility information!

What is the difference between 3 and 4 pin LEDs?3-Pin LEDs are addressable, meaning that each LED can have a different color. These LEDs generally run on 5V, meaning that they are not compatible with 12V controllers. 4-Pin LEDs are connected in parallel, meaning that one pin is dedicated for 12V, while the remaining 3 are used to turn on R, G, and B sectors on the strip. This means that all the LEDs will share the same color.

How do I reprogram my Glo?Glo can be connected to a computer using its USB port, and reprogrammed via the Arduino IDE. A more detailed guide will be posted shotly.
