RGB Running-Edge Letters

Plan Your RGB Running-Edge Letters

Define the movement before choosing colors

Describe whether the light should travel around each character, move across the complete word or change as one coordinated display. A short reference video is more useful than a label such as chasing or animated, because different controller arrangements can create different results. Ask for the proposed sequence to be demonstrated on the approved letter layout, including the spaces between separate characters, rather than judging an isolated LED sample.

Check the outline against your artwork

A narrow stroke, enclosed counter or sharp corner can affect how the illuminated edge reads. Provide editable vector artwork and identify the smallest detail that must remain recognizable. Review the face color and stainless steel edging as part of the same sample, since the unlit appearance is also visible during business hours. If the original logo needs production adjustments, approve those changes on a dimensioned drawing before fabrication begins.

Include controls in the project brief

Mark the intended controller position, power connection and cable route on a site photograph or sketch. State how the display will be operated and whether staff need access to a simple preset. For an exterior location, explain the actual exposure and where the power equipment will be housed. The quotation should identify the agreed sign configuration and included accessories so that the installer can review the complete assembly.
