NOTES:

1. If support RGBW four channels’ lights should select K-1000-RGBW.
2. If support single-channel light should choose K-1000-W, at this time, one channel means one pixel, the software effect make as white lighting.

Conventional IC lamps wiring

NOTE: 1.When multiple controllers cascade, beginning from the second controller digital screen display 222, and status lights: on, off, on, off, strobe, all cascade controllers’ playback speed is controlled by the first set.

Controller support DMX lights coding and wiring method

Two signal wiring diagram:

Single signal wiring diagram:

1. Like the above diagram, wired the line and start the controller, press “CHIP”and “MODE” at the same time switch to coding mode, adjust to Chip: 61 is UCS512A or B coding mode, as below:
   NOTE: 61 means UCS512A or B coding mode; 62 means WS2821 coding mode; 63 means SM DMX512AP; 64 means UCS512-C；Ch.：03 means the coding channel is 3 channels

2. After selection, press “MODE” to code, then the screen would display A A A. Like below:

3. After finishing address code, press “CHIP” first and at the same time press “MODE” button, switch to playback mode, and switch the chip to Chip: 10, this is the DMX512 standard agreement 250Kbps playback mode. At this time, press MODE button and SPEED button can separately switch playback mode and adjust speed, as below:

Special Remarks: Derived program after set one-key coding in the software, long press MODE for 5 seconds can write code to the lights directly, this function is very convenient and practical. Welcome to consult our engineer or salesman to learn the detailed operation method.

How to handle the common problems

• Problem 1: After powered on, the controller screen display FFF, and no effect output.
  Answer: The screen display FFF means the controller did not read the SD card correctly, the exist problems as below:

1. SD card is empty, has no effect files.
2. The effect files *.led in SD card and the controller model is mismatched, please select the correct controller model, chip model in the latest edition 2016LedEdit, and remake effect files *.led.
3. Change SD card and then retest, rule out the possibility of SD card is broken.

• Problem 2: After powered on, the indicator is normal, but the lamps has no effect change.
  Answer: It has the following reasons for this problem:

1. Please check if the signal line of the lamps and the controller is connected correctly.
2. Conventional lamps signals divided into input and output, please confirm whether the controller connected the first lamp’s signal input.

• Problem 3: After connect the lamps and the controller, the lamps is strobe and has an effect change, at the same time the controlled indicator shows normal.
  Answer:

1. The ground line of the controller and the lamps are not connected.
2. The effects in SD are not correct. The IC of the lamps when making effect does not correspond with the IC of the actual lamps.
3. If did not lock the chip, when making effects in the software, need to press the controller chip to the light’s corresponding chip, about press to which number, please refer to the sticker IC order on the controller.
4. The power supply voltage of the lamps is insufficient.

• Problem 4:  SD card can not be formatted.
  Answer:

1. Firstly, make sure if the protection switch on the side of SD card is unlocked. The unlocking direction is the gold needle side of SD card.
2. The protection has been designed as required, but can not formatted, if this condition appears, it always because the SD card reader is broken, please change the SD card reader(had better use good quality card reader, SSK card reader is suggested).
3. If the above operations can not solve the formatting problems, please change the SD card and retest.
