Prizm 5.1 - Can All Three Outputs be Used to Drive Triple LEDstrip?

[Jax Solo]

The manual talks about using a dual LEDstrip and to use 1 and 2 tied together to drive the low side. What if I'm using a triple LEDstrip? Will I get more current drive if using all three outputs? Will this damage the board, or make it work more efficiently?
I assume the Fdrive is set to 111 for all colors when using LEDstrips. Thanks!

it should not damage the board, and we are adding the 3rd channel in backup. Some people already used a prizm with 3 strips with no issue, a 3rd driver makes just more sense for 3 strips and improves the power management.

The latest firmware from earlier this month should normally have this (EU production and possibly USA production as well), you can test which board you have by using channel 3 on a single strip to see if it gets powered.

fdrive to 111 ? not sure I understand that one

Yes the latest PRIZM for TCSS he received Wed. is the newer firmware.

Fantastic! Thanks to both of you! I'll hook up that third output momentarily.

Maybe I confused Fdrive with Focmix. Seems that for LED strips, Focmix would always be 111, but maybe I don't yet have the hang of how it works.
