About the ADJ PIX800 Pixie Driver 8000

The ADJ PIX800 Pixie Driver 8000 is a high-output, pixel-mappable LED strobe effect light designed to create intense, rapid-fire bursts of light and dynamic color patterns for high-energy environments like nightclubs, festivals, touring shows, and stage productions. This fixture is built around a dense, multi-segment array of extremely bright, fast-cycling RGBW LEDs, capable of producing blinding white flashes as well as a full spectrum of colored light with near-instantaneous response times. The "Pixie" name hints at its pixel-mappable nature, where individual LED clusters or sections can be controlled independently via DMX, allowing for complex chasing sequences, text effects, and detailed graphic animations that can be synchronized to music. With a power rating of 8000 watts equivalent strobe output, it delivers a level of intensity that can cut through the brightest stage washes and ambient light, making it a powerful tool for creating dramatic punctuation and visual impact.

This fixture is engineered for both versatility and control. It offers multiple operational modes, ranging from simple standalone strobe effects with sound activation to fully addressable pixel mapping when controlled via a DMX lighting console. The user can configure the fixture to treat the entire LED array as a single unit for massive synchronized flashes or divide it into numerous individually controllable segments for intricate, programmed sequences. The integrated control system allows for adjustment of strobe speed, intensity, color, and effect macros, providing a wide range of creative possibilities from subtle pulsing to aggressive, machine-gun-like strobe bursts.

Constructed for the rigors of professional use, the PIX800 features a robust, yoke-mounted housing with efficient thermal management to handle the high power output. It includes standard professional connectivity such as DMX input and output via XLR connectors, and often incorporates power linking capabilities for daisy-chaining multiple units. Its design prioritizes both impact and reliability, ensuring it can perform consistently during demanding live events. For lighting designers and operators seeking a high-intensity, pixel-mappable strobe effect that can function as both a blinding special and a detailed animated light source, the ADJ PIX800 Pixie Driver 8000 offers a potent combination of raw power and sophisticated control.

FAQs about ADJ PIX800 Pixie Driver 8000

What is the primary function of the ADJ Pixie Driver 8000?

The Pixie Driver 8000 is a dedicated power and data driver specifically designed for ADJ Pixie Strip LED fixtures (Pixie Strip 30, 60, 120, and Pixie Curve 60). It processes network control signals and routes power and pixel mapping data to connected LED strips across eight independent output ports.

How many pixels and total fixtures can a single Pixie Driver 8000 drive?

The driver can control up to 8,160 total pixels (up to 1,020 pixels per output port). Depending on the model, each port can support up to 34 Pixie Strip 30s, 17 Pixie Strip 60s, or 8 Pixie Strip 120s.

What control and network protocols does this driver support?

The driver supports major Ethernet lighting protocols including Art-Net, sACN (Streaming ACN), and Kling-Net. It features dual RJ45 network ports for easy daisy-chaining within an Ethernet control setup.

Does the driver require a DMX console or software to operate basic effects?

No, the unit features an OLED screen with a 4-button menu that includes internal standalone auto programs and manual RGB dimming/strobe controls. This allows for quick testing or simple background setups without an external network controller.

What cables are used to connect the Pixie Driver 8000 to the Pixie Strips?

Connection is made using proprietary 4-pin combo cables that deliver both 24V DC power and data through a single line. The driver package includes one starter cable, while additional link cables are available separately in lengths ranging from 1 ft to 50 ft.

Can the Pixie Driver 8000 be mounted in a equipment rack or flown on truss?

Yes, it includes removable 19-inch rack ears for mounting in standard 2U or 3U rack cases. It also features rubber feet for tabletop use, a safety loop, and a threaded mounting bolt hole for attaching a truss clamp.

Can I mix different Pixie Strip models on the same output port?

Yes, you can mix and match Pixie Strip 30, 60, 120, and Curve models on a single port. The only requirement is that the total combined pixel count on that port does not exceed the 1,020 pixel limit.

What are the power requirements and power consumption of the unit?

The driver features a universal auto-switching internal power supply operating from 100V to 240V AC (50/60Hz). Power is supplied via a locking power input cable, with a maximum power consumption of 1,600 Watts when fully loaded.
