Key buttons include ON/OFF, White (W), Red (R), Green (G), Blue (B), Mode (M), Speed Down (S-), and Speed Up (S+). Dimensions are approximately 47mm width, 16.5mm depth, and 134mm height.
3. Products Key Diagram
This section illustrates the key components and controls of the remote. The Color Ring allows users to select colors. The Saturation / CCT Control adjusts color saturation or color temperature depending on the mode. An Indicator light is present. Buttons include:
- White (W): Switches to white light mode.
- ON / Link(Unlink): Powers the device on or initiates linking/unlinking procedures.
- Static Red Light, Static Green Light, Static Blue Light: Displays solid colors.
- Speed- / 60S Delay OFF: Decreases speed in dynamic modes; in static mode, a 2-second press turns off the light after 60 seconds.
- Dimming Slider: Adjusts the overall brightness.
- OFF: Powers the device off.
- Speed+ / 10min Delay OFF: Increases speed in dynamic modes; in static mode, a 2-second press turns off the light after 10 minutes.
- Mode (M): Cycles through different dynamic lighting modes.
4. Auto-synchronization Function
Multiple controllers can operate synchronously. When started at different times but controlled by the same remote, they will match the selected dynamic mode and speed.
Auto-synchronization Diagram Description: This diagram shows a central remote control communicating wirelessly with several controller units. Arrows indicate that the controllers are synchronized with each other, ensuring uniform lighting effects across multiple connected LED strips.
Remark:
- The indicator light signifies auto-transmitting status.
- Controllers will auto-synchronize within the same dynamic modes and maintain synchronization within a 30m controlling distance.
5. Auto-transmitting Function
The auto-transmitting feature extends the control range. One strip controller can relay signals from the remote control to another controller within a 30m range. If a chain of controllers is set up with each unit within 30m of the next, the effective remote control distance becomes virtually limitless.
Auto-transmitting Diagram Description: This diagram illustrates a sequence of controller units connected in a chain. Each controller is shown transmitting signals to the next, demonstrating how the control signal propagates through the network, effectively extending the range beyond the direct line-of-sight of the remote.
6. Dynamic Mode Sheet
The system supports various dynamic lighting modes:
Number | Dynamic Mode | Brightness & Speed | Saturation |
---|---|---|---|
1 | Seven color gradual change | Adjustable | Adjustable |
2 | White light Gradual change | Unadjustable | Unadjustable |
3 | RGB gradual change | Adjustable | Adjustable |
4 | Seven color jump to change | Adjustable | Adjustable |
5 | Jump to change randomly | Adjustable | Adjustable |
6 | Red light gradual change + Flash 3 times | Adjustable | Adjustable |
7 | Green light gradual change + Flash 3 times | Adjustable | Adjustable |
8 | Blue light gradual change + Flash 3 times | Adjustable | Adjustable |
9 | White light gradual change + Flash 3 times | Unadjustable | Unadjustable |
7. Linking & Unlinking
Remark: The LED light can only function after being successfully linked with the remote controller.
Linking Instructions
Follow these steps to link the remote control to a controller:
- Switch off the power supply to the controller. Wait for 10 seconds, then switch it back on.
- While the light is on, quickly press the "ON" button on the remote control 3 times within 3 seconds.
- If the linking is successful, the connected light will blink 3 times slowly.
If the light does not blink slowly, the linking has failed. Please switch off the power again and repeat the steps.
Linking Diagram Description: This diagram shows the power supply connected to the controller, and the controller connected to the LED strip. It illustrates the remote control with its "Link/Unlink button" and "ON" button, indicating the sequence of power cycling and button presses required for pairing.
Unlinking Instructions
Follow these steps to unlink a remote control from a controller:
- Switch off the power supply to the controller. Wait for 10 seconds, then switch it back on.
- While the light is on, quickly press the "ON" button on the remote control 5 times within 3 seconds.
- If the unlinking is successful, the connected light will blink 10 times quickly.
If the light does not blink quickly, the unlinking has failed. Please switch off the power again and repeat the steps.
Unlinking Diagram Description: Similar to the linking diagram, this illustrates the process of unpairing the remote. It shows the power supply, controller, and remote, highlighting the sequence of power cycling and pressing the "ON" button 5 times.

9. Attention
Please observe the following precautions for safe and optimal operation:
- ⚠️ Voltage and Polarity Check: Verify that the input voltage of the constant voltage power supply matches the controller's requirements (DC12V~24V). Ensure correct connection of both positive (cathode) and negative (anode) terminals to prevent controller damage.
- ⚠️ Power Connection Safety: Do not connect or disconnect wires while the power is on. Ensure all connections are correct and there are no short circuits before turning on the power.
- ⚠️ Environmental Considerations: Avoid using the controller in locations with large metal surfaces or strong electromagnetic interference, as these conditions can significantly reduce the remote control's effective range.
