Setup and Installation
1. Wiring Connection
Connect the LED controller to your single color LED strip lights and power supply according to the following steps:
- Ensure the power supply is disconnected before making any connections.
- Connect the LED strip light's positive (+) and negative (-) terminals to the output side of the LED controller. The controller uses a common anode connection.
- Connect the DC 5-24V power supply to the input side of the LED controller. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative).
- Verify all connections are secure before applying power.
2. Remote Pairing (Code Matching)
Due to technical upgrades, the 1-to-1 control mode has changed. Please attempt the latest method first. If it fails, try the original method.
- Latest Matching Method:
Press the 'LIGHT-' and 'SPEED+' keys simultaneously within 5 seconds of powering on the LED controller.
- Original Matching Method:
Press the 'SPEED-' and 'SPEED+' keys simultaneously within 5 seconds of powering on the LED controller.

Operating Instructions
The 11-key RF wireless remote control allows for easy adjustment of your LED strip lights. Refer to the button functions below:
Image: Labeled diagram of the 11-key remote control, indicating the function of each button.
- Power Button (Top Left): Turn on/off the LED lights.
- LIGHT (Green Button): Toggles between static lighting mode and dynamic modes.
- BRIGHT+ / BRIGHT- (Brightness Adjustment): Increase or decrease the brightness level in static mode. There are 10 levels of brightness adjustment.
- 100% / 50% / 25% (Preset Brightness): Directly set the brightness to 100%, 50%, or 25% of maximum.
- MODE+ / MODE- (Dynamic Mode Adjustment): Cycle through the 8 available monochrome dynamic modes.
- SPEED+ / SPEED- (Dynamic Speed Adjustment): Increase or decrease the speed of the current dynamic mode. There are 10 levels of speed adjustment.
Dynamic Modes
The controller features 8 types of monochrome dynamic models, including:
- Flash Blasting
- Breathing
- Getting Brighter and Darker
- Strobe
- Flicker
- And other variations.
Use the MODE+ and MODE- buttons to switch between these effects, and SPEED+ and SPEED- to adjust their pace.
Maintenance
Remote Control Battery Replacement
The remote control is powered by a CR2025 lithium battery. If the remote's range decreases or it stops responding, the battery may need replacement.
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of the remote control.
- Slide the battery tray out or open the compartment cover.
- Remove the old CR2025 battery.
- Insert a new CR2025 lithium battery with the positive (+) side facing up.
- Close the battery compartment securely.

General Care
- Keep the controller and remote in a dry environment.
- Avoid exposing the devices to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
- Clean the devices with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| LED lights do not turn on. | No power to controller; incorrect wiring; remote not paired; faulty LED strip. | Check power supply connection. Verify wiring polarity. Re-pair the remote control (see Setup section). Test LED strip with a different power source if possible. |
| Remote control not responding. | Low or dead battery; remote not paired; out of range. | Replace CR2025 battery. Re-pair the remote control. Ensure remote is within effective range of the controller. |
| Lights flicker or behave erratically. | Unstable power supply; loose connection; interference. | Ensure stable power supply. Check all wiring connections for looseness. Minimize sources of RF interference. |
| Multiple controllers respond to one remote. | Controllers are on the same frequency and within range. | This is a characteristic of RF controllers. To control them independently, ensure they are sufficiently separated or consider using controllers with unique pairing IDs if available (not applicable to this model). |
Important Notes
- This controller is designed for single color LED strip lights only. It is not compatible with RGB, RGBW, or other multi-color LED types.
- Ensure the input voltage (DC 5-24V) matches your LED strip and power supply requirements. Exceeding the maximum output current of 6A per circuit can damage the controller.
- The controller has an automatic shutdown memory function, meaning it will remember the last setting (brightness, mode, speed) when powered off and resume it when powered back on.
