5.3.1 LDC Index

LDC Index is a measure of the time attenuation of LED pulses (in continuous mode) or the number of LED pulses (in discontinuous mode). The specific attenuation percentage and number of pulses can be viewed in the configuration file overview tab. See the ACP User Guide for more information.

Increasing the LDC index will decrease the amount of time the LEDs are on, decreasing brightness for that coarse combination. Decreasing the LDC index will increase the amount of time the LEDs are on, increasing brightness for that coarse combination. To close a brightness gap by changing LDC index, add or modify one coarse combination to use an intermediary LDC index and rerun the PWM sweep.
