RGB and Dimming Lighting Control Introduction The Unity X4 Control Board can be primarily operated via the Lippert Connect app utilizing a Bluetooth connection. Users can access and adjust a system via a mobile smart device. The configurator kit supplied to OEMs must be used to program the configurable inputs and the latching and reversing outputs.
• #8 x 1" screws (4) Installation Use 4 #8 x 1" screws to secure the Unity X4 Controller in a compartment free of moisture. NOTE: Controller must be installed in a watertight location. Connect 12V power and ground to the board.
