LET’S INVESTIGATE OUR FIRST SIMPLE CASE STUDY
Mrs Jones wants RGB under her kitchen bench and in behind her overhead cupboards, she wants to control it via remote control wall mounted as 2 separate
zones. The details are as follows:
Kitchen Bench is 4.7m long so what do we require?
• LED Strip ML-SMDFH-RGB @ 14.4w/m (1 x 5m pack)
o Total load 4.7 x 14.4 = 67.68 watts total
• Power supply ML- PSWP100 (Dimming not required)
• WiFi/RF Controller ML-1009FAWI (Set as master)
• Remote Control wall mounted ML-2820-US3 as we want 2 zones
Overhead cupboards are 3.4m long so what do we require
• LED Strip ML-SMDFH-RGB @ 14.4w/m (1 x 5m Pack)
o Total load 3.4 x 14.4 = 48.96 watts total
• Power supply ML- PSWP100 (Dimming not required)
• WiFi/RF Controller ML-1009FAWI (Set as master)
As you can see in this instance we have treated the two locations as separate areas controlled by a common controller as each area is a ZONE.
**This could have been done as a single Zone simply by making on 1009FAWI a master and the other a slave and they would have aligned themselves after a
short period of operation.**
CASE STUDY # 2
Mrs Jones wants RGB under her kitchen bench and in behind her overhead cupboards, she wants to control it via remote control wall mounted as 2 separate We
have to quote and design LED Strip RGBW to be installed in a ceiling coffer in 2 conference rooms separated by a removeable wall. Each coffer is 4.5m x 5m x
4.5m x 5m and are situated approximately 4m apart.
So if we install the strip as per the above drawing how do we wire and control it especially if it is to be considered two separate areas?
The bold circles indicate the point of connection and the arrows indicate the Strip involved in that connection, in this instance we will use the ML-1009FAWI as a
Master to control the strip from one corner in each of the coffers however due to the proximity of the two (2) coffers we can’t use the ML-1009FAWI as a slave as
it will try to control the opposing coffer.
In this instance we will use the ML-3002 Power Repeater to control the opposing corner in each coffer so our list of equipment would be as such.
Coffer # 1
1 @ ML-1009FAWI (set as master)
1 @ Ml-3002 Power Repeater
4 @ ML-SMDF-RGBW 5m bags
LED Strip
LED Strip
2 @ ML-PSWP200 Power supplies (14.4w/m x (5m+4.5m) = 136.8w total per corner)
1 @ 30m roll of ML-RGBW cable
1 @ wall mounted RGBW wall controller ML-2820-US3
Coffer # 2
1 @ ML-1009FAWI (set as master)
1 @ Ml-3002 Power Repeater
4 @ ML-SMDF-RGBW 5m bags
2 @ ML-PSWP200 Power supplies (14.4w/m x (5m+4.5m) = 136.8w total per corner)
Assumption: the 30m roll of cable will be sufcient to cater for both coffers between the ML- 1009FAWI and the ML-3002 as the ML-3002 will have its own driver
and will be able to step up the DC Voltage to the LED Strip.
