NovaStar NS060-30A Outdoor Light Sensor
NovaStar NS060-30A is a waterproof ambient light sensor designed for automatic brightness control of outdoor LED displays and digital signs. Its integrated 30 m kabel makes it suitable for installations where the sensor must be positioned away from the LED controller or display cabinet.
What does the NS060-30A do?
The sensor monitors surrounding light levels and sends brightness data to a compatible NovaStar control device. The LED display can then increase brightness in daylight and reduce it at night. This helps keep content readable while avoiding unnecessary power use and excessive nighttime brightness.
Nøglefunktioner
- Outdoor-ready housing: waterproof construction for permanent outdoor LED display installations.
- 30 m connection cable: allows flexible sensor placement with an unobstructed view of ambient light.
- Automatisk lysstyrkejustering: enables day-to-night brightness control when configured in the NovaStar system.
- No separate power adapter required: connects to and operates through a compatible NovaStar control device.
- LED display applications: suitable for outdoor advertising screens, LED signs, stadium displays and fixed digital billboards.
Kompatibilitet
The NovaStar NS060-30A works with compatible NovaStar devices that support light-sensor input, including the NovaStar MFN300 multifunktionskort og NovaStar MFN300-B multifunction box. Depending on the LED control-system configuration, it may also be used with supported NovaStar sending controllers and Taurus multimedia players. Confirm the sensor-port compatibility of your controller before ordering.
Sådan installeres og bruges det
- Mount the sensor outdoors where it can measure natural ambient light without being shaded by the LED screen or nearby structures.
- Route the 30 m cable safely to the compatible NovaStar controller or multifunction device.
- Connect the sensor to the supported light-sensor port.
- Configure automatic brightness rules in the applicable NovaStar control software.
- Test the brightness response at different light levels before completing the installation.
