Q: What does the M-Series RGB/RGBW control system do?
A: The M-Series is an RF controller for RGB and RGBW multicolor LED strip lights. It provides wireless control of brightness, speed, color, and lighting modes using a dedicated RF remote and receiver, making it easy to create dynamic, multicolor scenes in residential or commercial spaces.
Q: Which LED strips are compatible with this controller?
A: This controller is designed for RGB and RGBW LED light strips that run on 5–24V DC and use constant-voltage, common-anode wiring. It is not intended for single-color strips or addressable (pixel) LEDs.
Q: How much power can the M-Series controller handle?
A: The maximum rated load is 5A per channel, up to 20A total. That equates to 240 W at 12V (12V × 5A × 4 channels) or 480 W at 24V (24V × 5A × 4 channels) when all channels are fully loaded. Designers should keep the total connected strip wattage under these limits.
Q: Does the RF remote require line of sight, and what is the range?
A: No line of sight is required. The system uses 433.92 MHz RF, with a wireless control distance of up to 30 m in open areas, so the receiver can be hidden in cabinets, closets, or ceilings while still responding to commands.
Q: What functions can be controlled from the remote?
A: The RF remote supports brightness and speed adjustment, color selection, and lighting mode changes such as static colors and dynamic effects. This allows quick tuning of the overall look without accessing the controller or a separate app.
Q: Does the controller remember my last settings after the power is turned off?
A: Yes. The M-Series includes power-off memory, so when power is restored, it returns to the previously set mode and brightness, avoiding the need to reconfigure after each power cycle.
Q: Can this controller be used for single-color strips?
A: No. The M-Series is only compatible with RGB and RGBW LED light strips. For single-color (white) strips, HitLights recommends a dedicated single-color dimmer such as the R110 mini RF dimmer instead.
