Voice Control Integration

The controller is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Once integrated, you can use voice commands to:

• Turn lights on/off.
• Change brightness levels.
• Adjust colors.

It also supports IFTTT (If This Then That) for creating custom automation routines based on various events.

Working Modes

The wireless LED controller supports two working modes:

• Hotspot Mode: Use this mode when outdoors or in locations without a Wi-Fi network (e.g., car, boat). The controller creates its own Wi-Fi hotspot for direct connection from your smartphone.
• Home Wi-Fi Mode: Connect the controller to your home Wi-Fi router for remote control of your lights from anywhere with internet access.

Maintenance

• Keep the device clean by wiping it with a dry, soft cloth.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Ensure proper ventilation around the controller to prevent overheating.
• Store the controller in a dry environment when not in use for extended periods.

Troubleshooting

Cannot Find "LEDnetxxxxxx" Wi-Fi Signal

If you are unable to find the controller's Wi-Fi signal during setup, you may need to reset the WiFi controller:

1. Before resetting, ensure the WiFi strip controller is powered off.
2. To start the reset process, power the controller on and off three times (ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON). Each turn should be approximately 2 seconds apart.
3. Upon successful reset, the strip light will flash for a few seconds.
4. Go back to your phone's Wi-Fi settings, and the "LEDnetxxxxxx" Wi-Fi signal should now be visible. If not, restart your phone's Wi-Fi and wait for automatic refresh.

Lights Not Displaying Correct Colors or Functioning

• Check Arrow Alignment: Ensure the 4-pin connector from the LED strip is correctly aligned with the arrow on the WiFi controller. If the light color turns out to be opposite (e.g., you want red, but it lights up green), please re-insert the 4-pin connector to the end side of the light strip, ensuring arrow alignment.
• GRB vs. RGB Compatibility: This controller is designed for "GRB" light strips. Before purchase, ensure your light strip is GRB. If your strip is RGB, it may not function correctly.
