Aquero 5 12V PWM outputs

Sunday, January 15th 2012, 1:20pm

Hi all!

I receive my aquaero 5 LT a few weeks ago and still playing with it. I love it!!!
I'm planning to connect this type of led light to one of the 12V PWM output of the aquaero. Is it possible? Somebody tried?






I Know this PWM outputs can handle 1A, but I don't know if the led's consumption could be high than that.

Questions:


1.Can I connect this kind of led's to the 12V PWM outputs of the aquaero?
2.Can I control the bridges of this kind of led's with the PWM signal?


Thanks!!

Cn someone tell me how it can be done? In AS2011 only the relay output is visible to me. I have an 5 XT. Thanks!

In AS2012, go to Aquero5, controller, create a new controller type (for example constant value) and assign one power output into the outputs:

Were you happy with the result? Do you just turn them on and off or anything more fancy? :)
I see you used a preset value in your answer, but your original question asked if yoy could control the bridge (?) - is that a controlling device that could change color/intensity?

I use this preset value to make the leds more or less bright. I'm very happy with the result, here u can see it:

You can associate a temp to the leds bright too.

It works pretty fine.

Regards!
