Wiring Connections

DO NOT connect the controller directly to 120VAC. Refer to the system diagram for a general system design. The wiring connections are as follows:

  • GND: Ground connection
  • Vin: Input voltage (12-24V)
  • Data +: Positive data connection
  • Data -: Negative data connection

Connect the wires from the 12-24V power supply to the DMX decoder or DMX fixture according to the provided instructions.

Mounting

To mount the HUEDATM Controller:

  1. Use a flathead screwdriver to pop off the faceplate of the controller.
  2. Install the controller in the provided junction box.

WARNING: Never install the HUEDATM Controller with other high voltage junction boxes, as there is a risk of shock hazard. National Electric Code requires electrical conductors to be separated by a barrier within the box or in a separate box. Install only in the provided junction box.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN, READ ALL WARNINGS AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

SAFETY & WARNINGS

When choosing wire, factor in voltage drop amperage rating and type (in-wall rated, Plenum rated, wet location rated, etc.). Inadequate wire installation could overheat wires and cause fire.

  • This product is rated for indoor installation and only for dry locations. Do not install in washrooms or areas near water (or the possibility
    of in the future).

  • Do not modify this product beyond the instructions in this guide or the limited warranty will be voided.

  • Wiring diagrams in this installation guide for basic installations. Please carefully review your installation before proceeding with a
    qualified electrician familiar with low voltage wiring.

  • Never install the HUEDA’™ Controller in with other high voltage Junction Box as there is a risk of shock hazzard! National Electric Code requires electrical conductors to be separated by a barrier within the box or in a separate box!. Install only in the provided Junction box.

IMPORTANT NOTE

  • Install Hueda DMX controller in a separate box rated for Low voltage use. NEC codes requires conductors shall not be placed in any raceway, compartment, outlet box, junction box, or similar fitting with conductors of electric light or power.

WIRE ENDS:
WIRE 6-8MM (0.25-0.30″)
Exposed wire should not be more than 6- 8 mm long & solder tip (tinned). Do not allow Wires to cross and insure all exposed wire is fully inserted into the screw terminals. Hand tighten screw terminals. Use 24 to 18 AWG gauge wire for output terminals.

INSTALLATION OVERVIEW

Install in accordance with the NEC and local regulations.

  • Turn power OFF at main circuit breaker and verify the power is off.
  • Determine an accessible locit for a comprible low volege driver to be installed between the main breaker and DMX controller. Determ a location to install additional accessories such as DMX decoders, fixtures etc. Ensure applicable wire is installed between all components.
  • When choosing wire, factor in voltage drop, amp rating and type to prevent fire or electric shock.
  • Remove the existing wall plate and switch. Pull switch from identify wires and disconnect from switch.
  • Remove existing switch box from wall and install the included DMX controller switch box. Additional tools may be required to fit DMX controller switch box in the wall.
  • Make wiring connections. See ‘Wiring Connections’ and ‘Mounting Diagram’ for additional information.
  • Replace wiring back into switch box. Mount and align DMX decoders/fixtures. See ‘Setting the DMX Address’.

SETTING THE DMX ADDRESS

Please refer DMX Receiver instructions for setting the DMX address

WIRING CONNECTIONS

DO NOT connect directly to 120VAC.
See ‘System Diagram for a general system design.

MOUNTING

TROUBLESHOOTING

For thorough troubleshooting of LED strip light and fixtures, see LED fixture installation guides.

LED fixtures not responding to touch

  • Ensure the blue indicator light is on by pressing ‘Power Button’.
  • Ensure the appropriate zone number was pressed prior to controlling the DMX decoder/fixture. For example, if you know the fixture is addressed to zone 1, press 1 prior to controlling.
  • Ensure the individual zone has not been turned off. Pressing zones 1-3 will turn the specific zone ON/OFF. Additionally, long pressing R, G, B, W will increase/decrease individual brightness and tapping will turn R, G, B, WON/OFF.
  • Ensure the DMX decoder/fixture is addressed properly. For example, address ‘001’ will respond to zone 1 of the controller.
  • See ‘Setting the DMX Address’ on page-2 for additional addressing information.

LED fixture responding incorrectly

  • Ensure all wiring connections are correct. Reversing the Data + and Data – will cause lights to flicker and not respond to controller.
  • Power connections of all components (drivers, DMX decoders/fixtures, DMX controller).
  • DMX Data connections -see ‘Pinout Connection Guide’ and ‘System Diagram’ for Rj45 hard-wiring connections.
  • DMX decoder PWM output connections -see ‘System Wiring Diagram for CH 1-4 connections

SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAM

The following wiring diagram is as an example system connectivity. CAT5 (RJ45 connections) cables are the most effective solution for transmitting
DMX-512 signals. XLR-3 cables may also be installed but require an additional adapter for connecting to DMX decoders. With DMX decoders it is
possible to transmit signal wireless with use of LC-512X wireless sticks. Always review each component’s installation guide for detailed and up-to-
date wiring instructions. Install in accordance with NEC and local regulations.
