Introduction
Qubino RGBW
module is used to control
RGB/RGBW strips and LED strips or bulbs to
create countless colour options and has 5 special
scene effects. It can also control halogen lights and
fans. It's extremely small size allows for easy
installation behind wall sockets and switches.
Controlled devices may be powered by 12 or 24
VDC.
Supported control types
•
Momentary (mono stable switch)
•
Toggle (bi stable switch)
Installation
1. Before the installation disconnect power supply
(12 - 24VDC)
2. Connect the device exactly according to the
diagram.
3. Pull out the antenna and keep it at 90 degree to
enhance the RF signals.
4. Place the antenna as far as possible from metal
elements as they may cause signal interference.
5. Do not shorten the antenna.
Danger of electrocution!
Installation of this device requires a great degree of
skill and may be performed only by a licensed and
qualified electrician. Please keep in mind that even
when the device is turned off, voltage may still be
present in the device's terminals.
Warning!
Rapid light changes may potentially trigger
seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy.
Note!
Do not connect the device to loads exceeding the
recommended values. Connect the device exactly
as shown in the provided diagrams. Improper
wiring may be dangerous and result in equipment
damage. Device must be powered by a dedicated
regulated power adapter.

Module Inclusion (Adding to Z-Wave
Network)
AUTO-INCLUSION
1. Enable inclusion mode on your Z-Wave
gateway (hub)
2. Connect the device to the power supply
3.
If the device is properly connected, the RGBW
strip will blink once.
4. Auto-inclusion will be initiated within 5 seconds
of connection to the power supply and the device
will automatically enroll in your network. If the
device is properly included, the green LED inside
the device will stay on.
Auto-inclusion times out after 2 minutes (the LED
red and green LED inside the device will blink
alternately).
MANUAL INCLUSION
1. Connect the device to the power supply
2. Enable inclusion mode on your Z-Wave gateway
(hub)
3. Press and release the S (Service) button 3
times within 2 seconds
4. If the device is properly included, the green LED
inside the device will stay on.
Z-WAVE EXCLUSION
1. Connect the device to the power supply
2. Make sure the device is within direct range of
your Z-Wave gateway (hub) or use a hand-held Z-
Wave remote to perform exclusion
3. Press and release the S (Service) button 3
times within 2 seconds
4.
If the device is properly excluded, the green
LED inside the device will blink for 2 minutes (auto
inclusion time)
NOTE: The device will be excluded from your
network, but any custom configuration parameters
will not be erased.
NOTE: Auto-inclusion times out after 2 minutes
(the LED red and green LED inside the device will
blink alternately).
FACTORY RESET
1. Connect the device to the power supply
2. Press and hold the S (Service) button for at
least 10 seconds3. If the device is properly reset
the green LED inside the device will stay on, the
RGBW strip will blink once and
the green LED
inside the device will blink for 2 minutes (auto
inclusion time)
NOTE: By resetting the device, all custom
parameters previously set on the device will return
to their default values, and owner ID will be deleted.
Use this reset procedure only when the main
gateway (hub) is missing or otherwise inoperable.
WARNING
1. RGBW Dimmer is suggested to operate within
low
voltage
circuits
(12VDC
or
24VDC).
Connecting loads powered by higher voltage to
the device may damage the RGBW Dimmer.
Please refer to the following table when wiring the
device.
RGBW Strip
Stranded
Current
Wire
High current
18 AWG
Low Current
22 AWG
2. RGBW Dimmer must be powered by the same
voltages as the connected light source. I.e. when
controlling a 12V LED strip, the device must be
connected to a matching 12V power supply.
Similarly, when controlling a 24V RGBW strip, the
RGBW Dimmer must be powered by a 24V power
supply.
3. The device's output is controlled by PWM at
488Hz.
4. When controlling long RGBW/RGB/LED strips,
voltage drops may occur, resulting in lower light
brightness farther away from the R/G/B/W outputs.
To minimize this issue, it's recommended to
connect several shorter strips in parallel instead of
one long strip connected in sequence. The
maximum recommended RGBW/RGB/LED strip
length is 33 feet (10 m). Please follow manufacturer
recommendations regarding connection wire size
for each load you connect to the device.
5. If your primary Z-Wave gateway (hub) is
damaged or lost, but you have connected the
device to an external switch, the RGBW Dimmer
can operate normally with local control. Otherwise,
please replace your Z-Wave gateway (hub) to
exclude the device from your previous network and
re-include it to restore wireless control (follow
inclusion / exclusion instructions above for the
process).
