Overview
The VC-Feeder is a smart, multi-protocol driver box for the VC-Dot series. A compact design and IP65 rating make it perfectly suited for installation close to a string of VC-Dots. The VC-Feeder provides the string with clean, regulated power, even if the power supply is located far away. Compatibility with the P3 System Controller (via the P3 PowerPort 1500 or PowerPort 1000 IP) gives it high-quality image processing capabilities with extremely easy setup and configuration.
