4. Setup

4.1 LED Strip Preparation and Installation

Before installation, ensure the LED strip is fully unspooled to prevent damage.

The LED strips come with upgraded adhesive for firm installation. Carefully peel off the backing and attach the strips to the back of your TV. Ensure the strips are positioned evenly around the perimeter of the TV for optimal lighting effect. The strips can be cropped at designated points to fit your TV size.

4.2 HDMI Sync Box Connection

The HDMI Sync Box is crucial for the screen synchronization feature. Follow these steps for correct connection:

1. Connect your external video source (e.g., TV Box, game console like Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PlayStation) to the HDMI IN port on the Sync Box using an HDMI cable.
2. Connect the HDMI OUT port of the Sync Box to an HDMI input port on your TV using another HDMI cable.
3. Connect the LED light strip to the designated light output port on the Sync Box.
4. Connect the 12V/1A power adapter to the DC input port on the Sync Box and plug it into a power outlet.

Important Note: For the sync feature to work, all content must pass through the HDMI Sync Box. You cannot sync the TV's built-in apps as these do not have an HDMI source input that can be routed through the sync box. This system is designed for external HDMI sources only.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Screen Sync Functionality

Once properly connected, the ambient light strips will automatically sync with your movies, videos, and games. The system detects the predominant color on the screen in real-time and displays a corresponding unique tone, creating an immersive experience with zero delay.

Note: This TV light only detects the predominant color in the picture and will display only that shade. It does not create a multi-color gradient effect based on multiple screen areas.
