Pinout

  • R1

    Upper-half red channel data input on the matrix input connector; Adafruit names R1/G1/B1 as RGB data channels, with some panels relabelled R0/G0/B0 but functionally equivalent.

  • OUTPUT connector

    HUB75-style chained output ribbon connector; Adafruit notes panels support chaining, though Arduino-class use is impractical and their Arduino library does not support chaining.
