A5s shows out of stock — but email us before you count it out

Our system shows zero right now, but that is often not the whole story — we may have just received a batch we have not logged yet, have reserved units that freed up, or have more arriving within a day, and if not we can usually source it fast. Email us and we will check the real count and come right back to you.

NovaStar A5s – Receiving Cards

A single A5s supports resolutions up to 320×256 @60Hz. Supporting the pixel level brightness and chroma calibration, individual gamma adjustment for RGB, and 3D functions, the A5s can significantly improve the display effect and user experience. The A5s uses high-density connectors for communication to limit the effects of dust and vibration, resulting in high stability. It supports up to 32 groups of parallel RGB data or 64 groups of serial data (expandable to 128 groups of serial data). Its reserved pins allow for custom functions of users.

Pixel-level brightness & chroma calibration

Key Features

3D
Drives active 3D glasses through a 3D emitter. Side-by-Side and Top-and-Bottom sources halve the output capacity.
Backup
Redundancy so one failure does not black the wall - a backup device, backup input source, backup Ethernet port, OPT-to-Ethernet failover, or dual receiving cards, depending on the model.
Color Calibration
Per-pixel correction of the brightness and colour differences between modules and cabinets, so a wall built from mixed batches reads as one panel.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I configure the A5s for my LED modules?

The A5s is configured with an RCFG configuration file loaded through NovaLCT (Screen Configuration, Receiving Card, Load Configuration File, then Save to Hardware). Your module or sign manufacturer supplies the file, or read it back from a working card. Olympian LED hosts a free browser-based RCFGX viewer at olympianled.com/tools/rcfgx-viewer to inspect any config file.

What controllers work with the A5s?

The A5s works with the full NovaStar sending lineup: VX all-in-one controllers, COEX MX controllers, MCTRL sending boxes, and Taurus multimedia players. Match the receiving-card firmware to your driver IC generation.

What warranty is included?

All NovaStar products include a full 3-year manufacturer warranty when purchased from authorized distributors like Olympian LED.

Do you offer volume pricing?

Yes! As the largest NovaStar distributor in the USA, we offer special pricing for bulk orders and repeat customers. Contact our sales team for a custom quote.

Do you have this in stock?

We keep over $2 million in inventory at our Titusville, Florida warehouse, and most orders ship same-day. Even if a product shows out of stock on the site, email us before you rule it out — we may have just received a batch we have not logged yet, have reserved units that freed up, or have more arriving within a day, and if not we can usually source it fast. We will check the real count and get right back to you.

Can I get NET 30 payment terms?
