4. Instruccions de configuració

Follow these steps to properly set up your LEDLUX WF201 Slave Repeater:

1. Preparació dels components: Ensure you have the WF201 Slave Repeater, a compatible master controller, LED RGB strips, a suitable DC 12V-24V power supply, and necessary connection cables (Ethernet/RJ45, power wires).
2. Connect LED Strips: Connect your LED RGB strips to the screw terminals labeled SORTIDA on the rear panel of the WF201. Ensure correct polarity and channel assignment (R, G, B, V+).
3. Connecteu la font d'alimentació: Connect your DC 12V-24V power supply to the screw terminals labeled INPUT: DC5V-DC24V on the rear panel. Observe correct polarity (positive to V+, negative to V-).
4. Connecteu l'antena: Securely screw the WiFi antenna onto the antenna connector on the rear panel.
5. Connect to Master Controller: Use an Ethernet cable (RJ45) to connect the ENTRADA port of the WF201 to the corresponding output port of your master controller. If daisy-chaining multiple slave units, connect the SORTIDA port of one WF201 to the ENTRADA port of the next.
6. Set ID and RF Code:
   • ID Dial: Ajusteu el ID dial on the front panel to assign a unique identification number to this slave unit. This is crucial for systems with multiple slave controllers. Refer to your master controller's manual for specific ID assignment guidelines.
   • RF Code Dial: Ajusteu el RF Code dial to match the radio frequency code set on your master controller. This ensures proper communication between the master and slave units.
7. Encès: Once all connections are secure and settings are configured, connect the power supply to a power outlet. The device should power on, and indicators (if present) will illuminate.

5. Instruccions de funcionament

The LEDLUX WF201 functions as a slave repeater and does not have direct user controls for lighting effects. Its operation is entirely dependent on the commands received from a compatible master controller.

• Master Controller Interaction: All lighting adjustments, color changes, brightness control, and effect selections are performed through your master controller. Refer to the instruction manual of your specific master controller for detailed operating procedures.
• Control del telèfon intel·ligent: If your master controller supports smartphone applications (e.g., for iPhone or Android), you will use these apps to send commands to the master controller, which then relays them to the WF201 slave unit.
• Multi-Point System: In a multi-point setup, ensure that each WF201 slave unit has a unique ID set via its ID dial to allow the master controller to address and control them individually or in groups.
• Indicadors d'estat: Observe any LED indicators on the WF201 for status (e.g., power, data transmission). Consult your master controller's manual or the WF201's specifications for indicator meanings.

6. Manteniment
