Go to settings ("Settings" icon in the upper right corner of the screen)
and select the correct option in the "Device type" field in section "Color"
depending on the LED strip connected. You can choose between the
options: "RGBW" - for three-color strips with additional white, "RGB" - for
three-color strips, "MONO" - for monochromatic strips and halogen bulbs,
"RGB or W" for three-color strips with additional white, which should work
in self-exclusion mode (turning white deactivates the color), "CT" for color
temperature strips (2-channel strip with warm and cold shades/temperature
of white - CCT, CW/WW), "CT x 2" for two independent CT strips, "RGBCCT"
for three-color strips with additional variable color temperature white.
In the "Button mode" field, set the type of the connected button: "None",
"Momentary" (monostable, so-called "bell") or "On/Off switch" (bistable,
"traditional"), and select the behavior of the controller after pressing it.
After saving the settings, go to the main panel by clicking the arrow in the
upper left corner. Test the controller works- if you have a multi-colored strip,
select color from the color selection circle and set the brightness using the
scrollbar. If you have monochrome strip, select the brightness of the channel
with the scrollbar. If you have CT strips, using the first scrollbar set the shade
(temperature) of white, then use the second scrollbar and set the brightness.
Test the controller's work by moving the brightness scrollbar several times
in the extremes and intermediate positions - the light source should change
its brightness.

Go to the configuration ("Settings" icon in the upper right corner of the
screen). In the "Main configuration" section, you can change the name of the
device that is displayed in the wBox application. The "Status LED enabled"
option allows you to turn off the built-in LED on the device.
When installing the controller in specific installations (eg film studios), it is
possible to change the "PWM frequency" - smaller setpoints works better
with low quality power supplies, but they can cause a flickering effect. Higher
values can cause unstable operation of the controller when powering the
system from low-performance power supplies.
In the controller settings, in "Effects" section is possible to edit predefined
effects as well as create your own lighting effects. In order to create a new
effect press "add new effect" and next complete the form. Set a name for the
effect, select the type and next add colors choosing it from the color palette,
and using the scrollbar adjust its brightness. Is possible to select additional
color options sliding-up the lower screen (title "more") or also set colors
by using scrollbars choosing the option "mono". Each time is added a new
color is necessary to confirm it pressing "save". Next select "changing color
duration in effect" (called passing time) and "color duration in effect" (called
lighting length of said color). Remember to save the new effect pressing the
"save" button.

further configuration. Being connected to the WiFi network emitted by the
device, in the control panel of the wBox application select the device, then

You can change the name of the device that is displayed in the wBox
application. In addition, you can change the name and password of its
generated WiFi network. Remember that changing the network name or
password will disconnect the device immediately after you click the "Save"
button, so re-connect to the device using the newly assigned network name
and password.
