Advatek PixLite E16-S Mk3
Drop shipped from vendor
The Advatek PixLite® E16-S Mk3 is an economical yet powerful professional LED pixel controller with 16 outputs to drive 16 runs of pixels, delivering up to six universes of data per output for a total of 96 universes of Art-Net or sACN pixel control. Built on Advatek's third-generation PixLite® Mk3 processor, this lightweight device offers unbeatable value for money and ultimate control over live and standalone installations.
Its 16 outputs are non-powered (data-only), making the E16-S Mk3 ideal for installations where pixel power is not routed through the controller. Housed in a compact, lightweight ABS enclosure, it is wall and DIN-rail mountable, powered from a 5V–24V DC screw-terminal input, and features electrical fault protection on all ports. The Mk3 family is engineered so it won't interfere with building management systems or affect sensitive RF, network and communications infrastructure.
Officially supported with DMX Core 100. This controller is a supported integration for the DMX Core 100 lighting controller — auto-discover it on the network, push Art-Net or sACN to its pixel and auxiliary ports in one click, and monitor board temperature, voltage, and per-output current live.

At its heart is the PixLite® Mk3 processor, Advatek's state-of-the-art third-generation engine:
- Gamma correction for pixels of all resolutions, so colors appear more vivid and accurate
- Extremely fast refresh rates — hundreds of frames per second for fast, reliable dynamic effects
- Dithering to make low-resolution pixels appear much higher-resolution
- Auto-Sync dynamic frame-rate adjustment to reduce out-of-sync pixels and tearing, even without an external sync source
Key Features
- 96 universes of Art-Net or sACN across 16 non-powered pixel outputs
- Up to six universes of data per output — up to 1020 RGB (768 RGBW) pixels per output
- Optional expanded mode doubles the digital outputs to 32 for faster refresh rates and greater flexibility
- Over 90+ pixel protocols supported, with adjustable clock speeds for clocked pixel types
- microSD card slot for Advatek SHOWTime™ standalone playback — no computer or live data required
- Auxiliary RS485 port for DMX512 input/output
- Advanced pixel mapping on every output: zig-zag, color order, grouping, reversing, null pixels and brightness limiting
- Configure using Advatek Assistant 3 or any web browser
- Electrical fault protection on all ports, five-year warranty and global certifications (RoHS, FCC, ETL, CE, RCM, UKCA)
Optional Conformal Coating adds a protective layer for harsh or high-humidity environments.
