LED OK Lite: How to Connect and Control Your Sign
Welcome to the LED OK Lite instructional guide. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to connect your mobile device to your taxi top sign, import your content, and display it on your sign. By following these simple instructions, you'll be able to manage and update your sign's content with ease. Let's get started!
Step 1: Connect to Your Taxi Top Sign
- Open your mobile device and go to Wi-Fi settings.
- Search for a Wi-Fi network named "Y5A" followed by a series of numbers. These numbers are unique to your sign.
- Connect to this network. The default password is
12345678
. You can change this later if needed. - After connecting, you might see a message saying "Connected without Internet." This is expected. Stay connected to the network even if prompted that there is no Internet.
Step 2: Download the LED OK App
- For iPhone Users: Go to the App Store and search for "LED OK Lite." Download and install the app directly.

- Set the screen resolution based on your sign's specifications. For example, if you have a 37x12 inch screen with 2.5mm pitch, the resolution would be
384x128
. Check your purchasing documents for the exact resolution.
Step 5: Adding Content
- In the task, you can add different pages, with each page representing an ad or slide.
