The Avide 4-zone LED strip dimmer is designed to control single-color LED strips. It operates on 12V or 24V systems with a maximum power capacity of 144W. The device requires a compatible 4-zone remote control (not included) and must be paired before use.
Product Description
This 2.4G radio frequency dimmer allows you to switch lights on/off, adjust brightness, and manage lighting modes. It supports up to 4 zones, requiring at least one receiver per zone. A single controller can be paired with up to two remote controls.
Wiring and Installation
The controller should be installed between the power supply and the LED strip. Ensure the power is disconnected before starting the installation.
- LED Strip Connection: Connect the positive (+) wire of the LED strip to the V+ terminal on the controller. Connect the negative (-) wires to the corresponding V- terminals. You can connect up to 3 LED strips simultaneously.
- Power Supply Connection: Connect the power supply to the POWER2 input if it has a DC jack. If not, use the POWER1 input terminals (Red = POWER1+, Black = POWER1-).
