Overview

The Exterior PixLine 20 is a  linear LED video fixture for media facades and creative installations. The Exterior PixLine 20 can be combined with a wide variety of lenses and diffusers for the right look for every application. The Exterior PixLine 20 is driven by the Martin P3 System Controller family for easy setup and video display, and it is also backwards compatible with DMX for smaller setups. The fixtures can be fully customized in terms of length and color to match every installation requirement, while the power source is hidden.
