SPI Decoder and RF Controller - Figure 2 Note:
● 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:

  • 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.
