5.1 Izintambo Iziyalezo

The controller features quick-connect terminals for simplified wiring. Follow these steps for secure connections:

1. Lungisa Izintambo: Strip approximately 10mm of insulation from the ends of your LED strip wires and power supply wires. The suggested wire type is 0.3-2mm² (22-14AWG).
2. Vula Isixhumi: Gently open the connector lever upwards.
3. Faka Intambo: Insert the prepared wire into the appropriate terminal. Refer to the terminal labels for correct polarity and channel assignment (V+, R, G, B, W, C, V-).
4. Vikela Uxhumo: Press the connector lever down to secure the wire. Give each wire a gentle tug to ensure it is firmly held.

5.2 Pairing with a ZigBee Hub

This controller requires a compatible ZigBee hub for smart control. The pairing process typically involves:

1. Vula: Connect the controller to a suitable DC 12-48V power supply.
2. Qalisa Imodi yokumatanisa: Consult your ZigBee hub's instructions to put it into pairing mode.
3. Reset Controller: Short press the 'Reset' button on the controller or power cycle the controller (turn off and on) to initiate pairing. The indicator light may flash to confirm pairing mode.
4. Qinisekisa ukumatanisa: Once successfully paired, the controller will appear in your ZigBee hub's device list.

Important Note: If you change the device function mode using the 'OPT' button, the controller may need to be re-paired with your ZigBee hub.

6. Iziqondiso Zokusebenza

6.1 Mode Selection (5-in-1 Functionality)

The controller supports five different LED strip configurations. Use the 'OPT' button to cycle through these modes:

• Short Press 'OPT': Switches the current device function. The indicator light will change color to reflect the selected mode:

6.2 Power-on Status Settings

You can configure the controller's behavior after a power interruption:

• Long Press 'OPT' (more than 5 seconds): The indicator light will flash light blue three times. This action toggles between two power-on states:

1. Khumbula Isimo Sokugcina: The controller will resume its state (on/off) prior to the power failure.
2. Lights Up by Default: The controller will turn on automatically when power is restored.

6.3 Selectable PWM Frequency

Adjusting the PWM frequency can help match different power supplies and reduce audible noise (e.g., high-pitched whine) from the LED strips or power supply.

• Short Press 'Reset': Cycles through the available frequencies. The number of flashes of the indicator light corresponds to the selected frequency:

6.4 External Push Button Control

An external push button can be connected to the 'Push' terminals for basic control:

• Ukucindezela okufushane: Toggles power On/Off.
• Cindezela isikhathi eside: Adjusts brightness. Release and long press again to change dimming direction (increases brightness, then decreases brightness).

7. Isondlo

• Ukuhlanza: Use a dry, soft cloth to clean the controller. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Imvelo: Keep the controller in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or moisture.
• Izixhumanisi: Periodically check all wire connections to ensure they remain secure.

8. Ukuxazulula izinkinga

• Isilawuli Asiphenduli:
  • Ensure the power supply is connected and providing the correct voltage (DC 12-48V).
  • Hlola zonke izintambo ezixhunywe kuzo ukuze kubonakale ukuthi azikhululekile noma ukuthi azinawo yini umfutho.
  • Try power cycling the controller (disconnect and reconnect power).
  • If using a ZigBee hub, ensure the controller is properly paired. Re-pair if necessary.
• LED Strips Not Lighting Up or Flickering:
  • Verify that the LED strip type matches the mode selected on the controller (RGBCCT, RGBW, RGB, CCT, Dimmer).
  • Check the LED strip itself for damage or incorrect wiring.
  • Ensure the total current draw of the LED strips does not exceed the controller's maximum output (15A total, 12A per channel).
  • If flickering occurs, try adjusting the PWM frequency using the 'Reset' button.
• High-Pitched Noise:
  • This can often be resolved by changing the PWM frequency. Short press the 'Reset' button to cycle through frequencies (600Hz, 800Hz, 1000Hz, 2000Hz, 4000Hz, 8000Hz) until the noise is eliminated or reduced.
• Controller Overheating:
  • Nqamula ugesi ngokushesha.
  • Check if the total current draw of the connected LED strips exceeds the controller's maximum capacity (15A total).
  • Qinisekisa ukuthi umoya ungena ngokwanele eduze kwesilawuli.
  • Verify that all wire connections are secure and not causing resistance.
• Cannot Connect to Tuya Hub:
  • As stated in the safety information, Tuya Zigbee hubs may block third-party devices. This is a known compatibility issue. Consider using a different Zigbee hub (e.g., Home Assistant, Conbee) for full functionality.
