Note:

The devices within the group are automatically configured by the system as either master or slave roles.

Note:

1. Devices need to be added to the device list one by one before they can be grouped. A controller can be assigned to a maximum of 10 groups simultaneously.
2. Lighting effects:
   When adding or deleting a group. On success ( White light breath 1 time ). On failure ( White light breaths 2 times ).

Wireless frame synchronization:

After grouping is complete, devices within the group automatically acquire wireless frame synchronization functionality (music lighting effects do not have frame synchronization), without any manual operation required.

Single control / Group control switch

Single control:

In the list (Figure 1), click on the controller tab to enter single control mode, at which point the device’s blue indicator light will remain on.

Group control:

In the list (Figure 2), click on the group tab to enter group control mode. At this point, devices within the group automatically have frame synchronization, with the master controller’s green indicator light remaining on and the slave controller’s green indicator light flashing.

Delete / Edit and Reset

Delete group

Long press the group tab (Figure 2) → Select delete → Dissolve the entire group. At this point, all devices in the group will revert to an ungrouped state, and the blue indicator light will remain on.

Edit devices within the group:

Long press the group tab (Figure 2) → Select edit → Check / uncheck devices → Done.

Device deletion and reset:

Software reset (Method 1): Long press the device label in the device list (Figure 1) → Remove → Reset complete.

Button reset (Method 2): Within 20 seconds of powering on the device, long press the switch button for 5 seconds → Blue and green indicator lights will flash simultaneously → Release, and the blue indicator light will remain on → Reset complete.
