Marking meaning
1. Key Functions
| Key | Normal Operation | Key Combination |
|---|---|---|
| CHIP | Switch IC protocol modes | Enter Address Writing Mode: Press "CHIP" → "MODE" → Write addresses → "CHIP" → "MODE" to exit. |
| MODE | Switch effect files | DMX Auto-Addressing: Hold "MODE" for 5s in playback mode to activate. |
| SPEED+ | Increase effect speed | Built-in Effect Setup: Press "SPEED+" on startup to enter channel settings. Cycle Mode: Hold "SPEED+" + "SPEED-" → Display "C C C" indicates activation. |
| SPEED- | Decrease effect speed | DMX Channel Test: Press "SPEED-" on startup to enter test mode. |
2. Port Definitions
| Port | Function |
|---|---|
| DC 5-24V | Positive terminal for DC power input (5-24V). |
| GND | Negative terminal for DC power input (shared ground). |
| IN A / IN B | Cascade signal input: Connect to OUT A / OUT B of the upstream controller. |
| OUT A / OUT B | Cascade signal output: Connect to IN A / IN B of the downstream controller. |
| POWER | Power status indicator (lit when powered). |
| ERROR | System status indicator (flashes for errors). |
| SD CARD | Slot for SD card storage. |
| CLK | Clock signal line (DMX address writing). |
| A (DAT+) | Differential data signal positive line. |
| B (DAT-) | Differential data signal negative line. |
Key Improvements
Unified Terminology:
Replaced ambiguous terms (e.g., "interface" → "mode", "file cycle" → "cycle mode").
Standardized signal labels (e.g., "DAT+" → "A (DAT+)" for clarity).
Simplified Structure:
Merged repetitive entries (e.g., "GND" appears once with shared functions).
Grouped related actions under key combinations (e.g., "SPEED+" + "SPEED-").
Technical Precision:
Clarified cascade signal flow (upstream/downstream).
Added error status descriptions.
Visual Hierarchy:
Used bold for key names and critical modes.
Added line breaks for multi-step actions.

Interval Channel Configuration
The interval channel is configured based on the actual channel count of the lamp.
Note: The channel count corresponds to the number of DMX512 channels occupied by each IC-controlled lamp pixel (e.g., 3 channels for RGB).
Chip Model Selection
Click the dropdown menu to select the IC model that matches the DMX512 IC used in the lamp.
One-Key Address Setup
Verify all settings are correct.
Click "SET" to finalize and output the programmed configuration.
One-Key Code Writing (Controller)
Insert the SD card into the controller.
Power on the controller.
Press and hold the "MODE" button for 5 seconds.
The controller screen will display "A-A-A", indicating address writing mode.
After address writing completes, the controller automatically enters channel test mode (identical to post-manual-address-writing testing).
Post-testing:
Press the "CHIP" button to exit test mode.
The controller returns to playback mode for normal operation.
Key Improvements
Simplified technical jargon (e.g., "program output" → "programmed configuration").
Added clear subheadings for easy navigation.
Standardized terminology (e.g., "code writing" → "address writing").
Structured steps with bold actions and contextual notes for clarity.
Unified formatting for consistency (e.g., button names in quotes).
