Installation
•
The BIM-RGB module must be mounted inside the vehicle.
•
The BIM-RGB module must be connected to switched power from the vehicle.
•
The application of the unit will determine the current requirements.
•
To run at full load, you would need a switched connection capable of supplying 7.4 Amps.
•
LED strips must have built in current limiting resistors to operate correctly.
If a connection with the current capabilities is not available, a relay driven by the switched power could be used to control
power to the module. When wiring up the power input be sure to use the appropriate gauge wire for your expected current
draw.
The RGB LED's or LED strips to be driven, will need their +12V connection connected to the "+" output. Then the
individual Red, Green, Blue connections from the LED or LED strip, should be connected to the corresponding outputs
from the BIM-RGB module.
Due to differences in parts, manufacturers, and quality: not all brands of LEDs will have the same color output.
Do not mix brands and types of LED strips, but stay consistent with the same brand and model.
Because of color variations, we offer a means to fine tune the bank of LED strip colors in our app (page 6).
See Figure 1 for how to wire without a relay to switch power.
See Figure 2 to connect power using a relay.
