Panel Types

The equipment library includes panel specifications from major LED manufacturers. Panel types define the physical and electrical characteristics of the LED modules in your screens.

Selecting a Panel Type

In the Screens sidebar panel, use the Panel Type dropdown to browse and search available panels. You can filter by:

  • Brand name — e.g., "Absen", "AOTO", "ROE"
  • Model — e.g., "A3 Pro", "PL2.5"
  • Pixel pitch — e.g., "2.5" to find 2.5mm panels

Panel Specifications

Each panel type includes:

PropertyDescription
BrandManufacturer name
ModelPanel model designation
Pixel PitchDistance between pixels in millimeters
Pixel SizeResolution in pixels (width x height)
Physical SizeDimensions in millimeters (width x height)
Max WattageMaximum power draw at full white
WeightPanel weight in kilograms

How Panel Type Affects Your Project

When you assign a panel type to a screen:

  • Grid dimensions determine total pixel resolution (panels wide x panel pixel width, etc.)
  • Physical size sets the real-world dimensions for 2D layout and 3D visualization
  • Wattage feeds into power distribution and circuit calculations
  • Pixel count per panel determines how many panels fit in each string based on processor capacity
  • Weight contributes to total weight calculations in the BOM

Available Brands

The built-in library includes panels from manufacturers such as:

  • Absen
  • AOTO
  • Brompton
  • Colorlight
  • GalaxyLED
  • ROE Visual
  • Unilumin

The library is continually updated with new models. If your panel type isn't listed, you can use a panel with similar specifications as a stand-in — the pixel pitch and physical dimensions are the most important values for accurate simulation.

Half Panel Variants

Some panel types have half-size variants in the library. When available, you can use these to create screens with partial rows or columns — useful for hitting specific overall dimensions.

The system automatically checks for compatible half-height and half-width variants based on the selected panel type.
