NovaStar MRV210-2 receiving card for legacy LED cabinets
The NovaStar MRV210-2 is a legacy full-color LED receiving card. This listing is discontinued and no longer available. Use the original product photos and the version notes below to identify an installed card before planning maintenance or a replacement.
The downloadable NovaStar MRV210 family specification is V2.2.1, released September 18, 2020. It describes four hub connectors, up to 24 groups of parallel RGB data or 64 groups of serial data, and a 256 × 256-pixel maximum load. Its illustrations show MRV210-1; the family document does not establish that every MRV210-2 hardware revision has identical connectors or capabilities.
MRV210-2 specifications and version differences
| Item | Reference and applicability |
|---|---|
| Model on this listing | MRV210-2; compare the label, board revision and both sides of the installed card. |
| Loading capacity | V2.2.1 family document: up to 256 × 256 pixels. The previous listing stated 256 × 220; confirm the actual card and module configuration before using the newer limit. |
| Data modes | V2.2.1: 16 groups RGBR′, 20 groups RGB, 24 groups RGB, or 64 groups serial data. These are alternative modes. |
| Scan conditions | 16-group RGBR′ supports 1/32 scan; 20-group RGB uses 1/16 scan; 24-group RGB supports 1/4 scan only. |
| Power input | V2.2.1: DC 3.3–5.5 V; rated 0.5 A and 2.5 W. Verify the installed revision and power wiring. |
| Physical reference | V2.2.1: 138.9 × 47.9 × 17.5 mm; 58.4 g. Check connector clearance and mounting holes against the actual board. |
| Operating environment | V2.2.1: −20°C to +70°C; 10–90% RH, non-condensing. |
Pinout and power checks before replacement
Do not use the hub VCC pin as a general power feed. In the V2.2.1 pin tables, VCC is a reserved 3.3 V output with a maximum output current of 50 mA. Match the selected data mode, connector orientation, pin numbering, scan type and module driver IC before connecting a hub board. The previous claim of expansion to 128 serial groups is not specified in this version and should not guide a replacement.
Calibration, monitoring and backup functions
The family specification describes pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration using NovaLCT and NovaCLB, configuration parameter readback, and temperature and voltage monitoring without peripherals. A cabinet LCD can display card status through the LCD connection; confirm the external LCD hardware separately.
It also describes a customized pre-stored image for startup or signal loss, loop backup through main and backup network lines, and two factory-stored copies of the application program. These are distinct functions. 3D output requires a sending card that supports 3D. Confirm firmware and hardware support on an existing MRV210-2 system before enabling these features.

MRV210-2 frequently asked questions
Is the MRV210-2 still available?
This listing is discontinued and no longer available. For replacement selection, contact EagerLED with clear front and rear card photos, the board label, module driver IC, scan type and saved cabinet configuration.
Does the 256 × 256 figure apply to every MRV210-2?
That figure belongs to the MRV210 V2.2.1 family specification. Verify the installed board revision and working configuration; a family maximum is not proof of identical performance for every legacy card.
Can another NovaStar receiving card be fitted directly?
Shared branding does not establish compatibility. Compare hub pinout, connector side, power input, mounting, module configuration and sender support. Review the NovaStar product range as a starting point for technical selection.
