Frequently asked questions

What is the XM10486G LED driver IC?

The XM10486G is an LED display driver chip made by Xiamen Xm-Plus. It is a PWM (constant-current, pulse-width-modulated) driver used on the LED module to control each pixel's grayscale.

Does NovaStar support the XM10486G?

Yes β€” the XM10486G is in NovaStar's recognized driver-IC library, though it may require manual receiving-card configuration rather than Smart Settings. Exact support depends on your receiving card model and firmware; upload your config to our RCFGX viewer to confirm.

How do I find out which driver IC my LED panel uses?

Open your receiving card configuration file (.rcfgx) β€” it records the driver IC type and firmware version. Our free online RCFGX viewer reads this for you without installing NovaLCT.
