NOTE: The PB2 Industrial has FPP installed on the internal eMMC. No SD card is required. The K32-Max is a cape for the PocketBeagle 2 that is designed to drive ws281x LED pixels. It has 32 local ports that can each drive 800 pixels (with power injection) at 40FPS. It also has 8 RJ45 differential ports that can output an additional 32 strings via differential receivers. Finally, it has 2 RS485 outputs for DMX, PixelNet, Renard, LOR. The K32-Max has a Real Time Clock (RTC) to maintain time, a temperature sensor, input voltage sensors, an OLED display with navigation push buttons, three powered USB ports, onboard sound, socket for FM transmitter, and a Gigabit Ethernet port (wired via USB2 so roughly 300Mb/s speed). The cape provides: 32 pixel connectors in banks for four. Each bank of four can use any voltage from 5V – 24V Each string is protected by an eFuse that provides current monitoring, eFuse protection, and instant alerts Each string can provide up to 6A of power 8 RJ45 connections for 32 more strings via differential receivers 2 RJ45 connections for DMX/LOR On-board pcm5102 DAC and headphone jack for sound Header to attach FM transmitter 3 USB-A connector for WIFIi adapters or other USB devices Gigabit Ethernet Connector Expansion header pins providing 8 gpio outputs and access to I2C bus, 3.3v power, and ground Temperature sensor. Real Time Clock 5v 4-Pin PWM Cooling Fan Connector 8 GPIO pins exposed to the user to allow adding additional buttons, proximity sensors, etc… to invoke various effects and functionality. You will need: PocketBeagle 2 – the K32-Max will NOT work with a PocketBeagle 1 A good quality SD card with the latest FPP image installed on it. The K32-Max requires at least FPP 9.0 to be fully functional.
