Default D or P driver for led

I'm ordering a led retro to add to my halide but am unsure about the difference in D and P drivers
I use a older apex and not sure which to buy

Please educate me

D is for 0-10V dimming (most applications, easiest for APEX)

P is for PWM dimming (would require PWM module to convert 0-10 signal from APEX)

Yeah D drivers are as close to plug and play as you'll get.
