SETUP

Remove all components from the box. It is recommended to first pair your device in a location close to your router BEFORE installation.

NOTE: If desired, you can operate the device with the controller and without pairing to Wi-Fi and without the app. Advanced features like colour customization, scheduling, and voice control will not be available. (See “How To Use” on page 6)

STEP 1
Download the free Monster Smart Lighting app from the App Store (for iPhone) or Google Play Store (for Android phones). Open the Monster Smart Lighting app and create an account by following the on-screen instructions.MONSTER-

FIG-1

STEP 2
Before you start, we need to set up a few things for a smooth pairing process:

  • Make sure your phone or tablet is successfully connected to the 2.4GHz WI-FI network that your device will be placed on.
  • Enable Bluetooth and location – To find pairable devices and successfully connect them with your home network, you must allow access to location services when prompted

NOTE
Most Smart devices only set up on a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network for longer ranges and transmission through walls. Many newer home Wi-Fi networks are mixed networks that are set to 5GHz by default (ex: AT&T, Verizon) and you may need to access your router settings and/or call your Internet Service Provider to create a separate 2.4GHz network.

NOTE: To prevent overheating, uncoll the light strip before use. Do not operate the Neon light strip while it is coiled up as it was in the packaging as this may cause damage to the product.

STEP 3
Connect and plug in the included power adapter and the light should turn on. Your device will power on into a dynamic lighting mode and can be controlled by pressing the button on the controller. To enter pairing mode or reset the device at any time, press and hold the button for 8 seconds.

STEP 4
In the Monster Smart Lighting app, select the “+” and then “device” to add a new device. Allow permissions when prompted. Follow the on-screen instructions to add your device.

STEP 5
Once the pairing process is complete, your device will receive any available updates from the network. Please Note: Installing the newest and best features may take up to 5 minutes.

CONGRATULATIONS!
Your device is now connected and ready to use. You can use the app to adjust settings, create custom lighting effects, set schedules, set up voice control, and more!

Note: Now that the setup is complete, your mobile device no longer needs Bluetooth enabled or to stay on your 2.4GHz network to operate your lighting device. Using the Monster Smart Lighting app, you can control your device from anywhere!

DESIGN

CREATE LINES AND CURVES
The Neon Flow’s water-resistant housing makes it perfect for edge-lighting large outdoor spaces like decks, patios, and walkways, or for illuminating large indoor spaces with the look of premium, diffused lighting.MONSTER-

CREATE CUSTOM DESIGNS
The Neon Flow is exceptionally flexible and can also be used to write cursive messages or create artistic, neon-style lighting designs to enhance any decor .MONSTER-MOW7-1005-ICM-Smart-RGB-Plus-IC-Flow-Flexible-Neon-Light-Strip-
FIG-3

DESIGN TIP: Before installing, try out different designs with your Neon Flow on the floor or a table to decide what you would like to create! Shape your design and use tape to hold it in place. Make sure that you have enough mounting clips for each piece of tape, this will ensure your design looks the same when installed.

NOTE: To avoid damage, do not tightly fold the Neon light strip.

INSTALLATION

STEP 1
Determine where you will install the Neon Flow. Make sure the location is still within the range of your Wi-Fi network and that it is close enough to a power source for the cord to reach without becoming a tripping hazard

STEP 2
Using the included mounting clips and screws, and a Phillips head screwdriver (not included), mount the Neon in the desired location. For best results place one clip approximately every 18 inches to secure the entire light strip evenly.

TIP: Place more mounting clips closer to curves or corners to better secure the strip around turns and use fewer on straight areas.

STEP 3
Once installed, connect the power adapter to the port on the cable and screw on the water-tight locking cap until secure.MONSTER-MOW7-1005-ICM-Smart-RGB-

The Neon Flow will automatically reconnect to the paired Wi-Fi network once powered on and will now be ready to use!MONSTER-MOW7-1005-ICM-Smart-RGB-Plus-IC-Flow-Flexible-Neon-Light-Strip-
