Wiring DiagramNote:
● If the SPI LED pixel strip is single-wire control, the DATA and CLK output is same, we can connect up to 2 LED strips.

Operation

IC type, RGB order and pixel length length setting

• You must rst assure IC type, RGB order and pixel length of the LED strip is correct.
• Long press M and ◀ key, prepare for setup IC type, RGB order, pixel length, automatic blank screen, Short press M key to switch four item.
  Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item.
  Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

• RGB order: O-1 – O-6 indicate six order (RGB, RBG, GRB, GBR, BRG, BGR).
• Pixel length: Range is 008-900.
• Automatic blank screen: enable (“bon”) or disable(“boF”) automatic blank screen.

DMX decode mode
There are two DMX decode modes selectable.
DMX decode mode1: change light color by setting DMX decode address ;
DMX decode mod 2: switch light dynamic modes, control brightness and dynamic mode speed via 3 different DMX decode addresses.
Long press M, ◀ and ▶ key at the same time to switch DMX decode mode (display”d-1″ ) and DMX decode mode (display”d-2″ ).
Long press M key for 2s, and then return to DMX address interface.

• mode 1:
• Short press M key, when display 001-512, enter DMX decode mode.
• Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode start address(001-512), long press for fast adjustment.
• Long press M key for 2s, prepare for setup decode number and multiple of pixels.
  Short press M key to switch two item.
  Press ◀ or ▶ key to setup value of each item.
  Decode number(display “dno”) : DMX decode channel number, range is 003-600(for RGB).
  Multiple of pixels(display “Pno”) : Each 3 DMX channel control length(for RGB), range is 001- pixel length.
  Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.
• If there is a DMX signal input, will enter DMX decode mode automatically.

For example, the DMX-SPI decoder connect with RGB strip:
DMX data from DMX512 console:DMX-SPI decoder output (start address: 001, decode channel number: 18, each 3 channel control length: 1):DMX-SPI decoder output (start address: 001, decode channel number: 18, each 3 channel control length: 3):

• mode 2:
• Short press M key, when display 001-512, Press ◀ or ▶ key to change DMX decode start address(001-512), long press for fast adjustment.
  For example, when the DMX start address is set to 001. The address 1 of DMX console is for dynamic light type setting (32 modes), address 2 is for brightness setting (10  levels), address 3 is for speed setting (10 levels).
  Long press M key for 2s, or timeout 10s, quit setting.

Restore factory default parameter

• Long press ◀ and ▶ key, restore factory default parameter, display”RES”.
• Factory default parameter: DMX decode mode 1, DMX decode start address is 1, decode number is 510, multiple of pixels 1, dynamic mode number is 1, chip type is TM1809, RGB order, pixel length is 170, disable automatic blank screen, without matched RF remote.

RF mode
Match: Long press M and ▶ key for 2s, display “RLS”, within 5s, press on/off key of the RGB remote, display “RLO”, match is successful, then use the RF remote to change mode number, adjust speed or brightness.
