NOVASTAR NS060-5A light sensor - 5m cable
Brightness control for LED walls & digital signage
article number: 11791 | manufacturer number: NS060-5A
The NovaStar NS060-5A is a professional light sensor with 5 meters Connection cable for automatic brightness control of LED walls and LED screens. In conjunction with compatible NovaStar control cards and multifunction cards, the sensor permanently measures the ambient light and automatically adjusts the display brightness.
This achieves optimal visibility in daylight, while reducing glare at night or indoors and saving energy at the same time. Ideal for advertising displays, LED installations, events, stadiums and digital signage applications.
- Automatic brightness control according to Ambient light
- More comfort for viewers and customers
- Reduced power consumption
- Ideal for indoor and outdoor LED walls
- 5 meter connection cable
- Cable length can be extended up to 100 meters
Suitable for many NovaStar systems such as MSD300, MSD600, MCTRL300, MCTRL600, PSD100, MFN300 and other devices with a round 4-pin sensor connection.

Questions & Answers▲
What does the NOVASTAR NS060-5A light sensor measure?
The sensor continuously measures the ambient brightness and delivers measured values in the range from 0 to 65,535 lux. Based on these values, a compatible NovaStar control card can automatically adjust the brightness of the connected LED wall
How long is the connecting cable of the NS060-5A?
The connecting cable is 5 meters long. If necessary, the cable length can be extended up to 100 meters if the sensor is to be mounted further away from the control unit.
Is the sensor also available with other cable lengths?
Yes, the sensor is available in three versions in the NS060 model series Cable lengths available: NS060-5A at 5 meters, NS060-10A at 10 meters and NS060-30A at 30 meters. All variants can be extended up to 100 meters.
Which NovaStar devices is the NS060-5A compatible with?
The sensor is compatible with many NovaStar systems, including MSD300, MSD600, MCTRL300, MCTRL600, PSD100 and MFN300. Basically, it works with all devices that have a round 4-pin sensor connection.
What type of connection does the sensor use?
The NS060-5A uses a 4-pin round connector. This connection type is available as a sensor input on a large number of NovaStar control cards and multifunction cards.
What operating voltage does the NS060-5A require?
The sensor is operated with 5 volts. The supply voltage is usually provided directly via the connected NovaStar control device.
Is the sensor suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the sensor is suitable for indoor and outdoor applications. It works at temperatures from -20 °C to +75 °C and can tolerate a relative humidity of 0 to 99 percent, which also makes it suitable for permanent outdoor use.
What practical use does the automatic Brightness control?
In strong sunlight, the system automatically increases the display brightness for optimal visibility. In dark environments or at night, the brightness is reduced, which minimizes glare for viewers and at the same time reduces the power consumption of the LED wall.
For which areas of application is the NS060-5A particularly suitable?
The sensor is particularly suitable for advertising displays and digital signage Installations, stadiums, event LED walls as well as for fixed indoor and outdoor installations where consistently good image quality is required in changing lighting conditions.
What dimensions does the sensor have?
The sensor has a diameter of 45 mm and a length of 50 mm. Thanks to its compact design, it can be mounted inconspicuously on LED walls or in the area of the display frame.
Does special software have to be set up to use the sensor?
The brightness control is configured via the control card and the associated NovaStar software. The sensor itself is a passive measuring device and does not require its own software or drivers. The settings for brightness adjustment are made directly in the NovaStar control software.
Can the sensor be subsequently added to an existing LED wall installation?
Yes, as long as the existing NovaStar control card has a compatible 4-pin has a round plug sensor connection, the NS060-5A can be retrofitted at any time without making any changes to the LED wall itself.
