a. Power connection
 
1. Connect the positive and negative poles: Connect the positive (+) and negative (-) poles of the power adapter to the corresponding ports of the controller respectively. Usually, the red wire is positive and the black wire is negative.
 
2. Secure the connection: Use terminal connectors or welding tools to ensure that the connection is firm, and wrap the connection point with insulating tape to prevent short circuit.
 
b. Controller connection
 
1. Connect the power input: Connect the positive and negative poles of the power adapter to the "DC IN" port of the controller.
 
2. Connect the signal line: Depending on the type of controller, connect the necessary signal line (such as PWM signal line). If it is a wireless controller, this step can be omitted.

a. Determine the connection point
 
1. Find the input end: Find the input end marked "IN" at one end of the strip, which usually has four wires of red, green, blue, and white (or three wires of red, green, and blue).

• Red wire to red wire (positive)
• Green wire to green wire (G)
• Blue wire to blue wire (B)
• White wire to white wire (common negative)
b. Fixing connection points
1. Using terminal connectors or welding: Make sure all connection points are firm and use terminal connectors or welding tools to make connections.
2. Waterproofing: If used outdoors, be sure to waterproof the connection points with waterproof connectors or silicone sealant.
 
4. Testing and debugging
• Turn on the power: Turn on the power switch and check whether the light strip is working properly.
• Adjust settings: Adjust the color and brightness of the light strip through the controller to ensure that all functions are normal.
• Check connections: Carefully check all connection points to ensure that there is no looseness or short circuit.
 
5. Installation and fixing
• Laying the light strip: Lay the light strip according to the design drawings and ensure that it is firmly fixed to avoid external forces.
•Hide the wires: Try to hide the wires in places that are not easy to see and keep them beautiful.
•Protect the connection points: Use waterproof connectors or distribution boxes to protect all connection points, especially in outdoor environments.
