• RGBCCT: Connect R, G, B, CW, WW, and V+ terminals.
• RGBW: Connect R, G, B, W, and V+ terminals.
• RGB: Connect R, G, B, and V+ terminals.
• CCT (Dual Color): Connect C, W, and V+ terminals. Two CCT strips can be connected.
• Dimmer (Single Color): Connect V- and V+ terminals. Up to five single color strips can be connected.

Note: For RGBW, RGB, CCT, and Dimmer configurations, ensure no connection to the "N" terminal if present on your strip.

2. Powering the Light Source

Connect the LED strip, controller, and a compatible DC 5-24V power adapter. Plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet. The controller will automatically power up.

3. Setting Up the Zigbee Bridge (Gateway)

If using a Zigbee gateway (e.g., SmartThings, Tuya, Philips Hue), plug it into power and connect it to your Wi-Fi router using the provided network cable. Refer to your gateway's manual for initial setup.

4. Downloading the Gateway App

Download the corresponding app for your Zigbee gateway on your Android or iOS phone. Follow the app's instructions to start searching for new devices. This process may take some time. If the device is not found, try power cycling the controller (power off/on) or performing a reset.

5. Completing Setup and Control

Once the controller is detected and paired with your gateway, you can use the app to control the light color, color temperature, and brightness of your LED strips.

Pairing with a 2.4G RF Remote Control

To pair the controller with a 2.4G RF remote control:

1. Ensure the controller is powered on.
2. Immediately after powering on, press the "I" button on your 2.4G RF remote control.
3. The LED strip will flash to indicate successful pairing.

Operating Instructions

App Control

Through your Zigbee gateway's mobile application, you can:

• Color Adjustment: Select from 16 million colors to create desired ambiance.
• Brightness Control: Adjust brightness from 1% to 100%.
• Color Temperature Adjustment: Fine-tune white light from warm to cool. Color lamp beads automatically turn off for more accurate white light adjustment.
• Grouping: Create rooms or groups to control multiple light strips simultaneously or individually.
• Scene Setting: Configure custom lighting scenes to match different moods or activities.

Mode Switching

The controller has an "Opt" key for switching between different LED strip modes (RGBCCT, RGBW, RGB, CCT, Dimmer). Short press the "Opt" key once to cycle through the modes. The indicator light on the controller will change color to reflect the current mode:

• White: RGBCCT
• Yellow: RGBW
• Blue: RGB
• Green: CCT
• Red: Dimmer

Frequency Settings for Noise Reduction

To reduce potential power supply noise, the controller allows adjustment of the output frequency. Press and hold the "Reset" button for five seconds to cycle through frequency options (600Hz, 800Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 8000Hz). The LED strip will flash a specific number of times to indicate the selected frequency:

• 1 flash: 600Hz
• 2 flashes: 800Hz
• 3 flashes: 1000Hz
• 4 flashes: 2000Hz
• 5 flashes: 4000Hz
• 6 flashes: 8000Hz

Power-On Status Memory

The device remembers its last on/off status. To set the default power-on status (on or off), press and hold the "Opt" button for five seconds. The light will flash to indicate successful setting. When power is restored, the device will revert to the saved status.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the controller. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Environment: Ensure the controller is installed in a dry, indoor environment within the specified operating temperature range (-20°C to +45°C). Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, high humidity, or extreme temperatures.
• Connections: Periodically check all wiring connections to ensure they are secure.

Troubleshooting

Issue: LED strip does not light up.

• Check if the power adapter is correctly connected and receiving power.
• Verify that the LED strip is correctly wired to the controller's output terminals.
• Ensure the input voltage (DC 5-24V) matches the requirements of both the controller and the LED strip.
• Confirm the LED strip itself is functional.

Issue: Controller not found by Zigbee gateway/app.

• Ensure the Zigbee gateway is powered on and connected to your network.
• Place the controller within range of the Zigbee gateway.
• Try power cycling the controller (unplug and replug power).
• Perform a factory reset on the controller (long press the "Reset" button for 5 seconds until the indicator light flashes).
• Ensure your gateway app is up to date.

Issue: Power supply noise (e.g., coil whine).

• Adjust the output frequency of the controller by pressing and holding the "Reset" button for five seconds to cycle through frequency options (600Hz, 800Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 8000Hz). Select the frequency that minimizes noise.
• Ensure your power supply is of good quality and compatible with the controller's requirements.

Issue: Wire connections are loose or difficult.

• The controller uses a press-type terminal design. Ensure wires are fully inserted and secured. Use the provided wiring tool if necessary.
• For very thin wires, consider tinning the ends slightly with solder to provide more rigidity, but be careful not to make them too thick for the terminals.
