The RGB LED flex ribbon is UL listed and has adhesive backing with a paper cover strip that can
be peeled away for mounting to most hard surfaces. Insulated staples can also be used to mount
the LED flex ribbon with care. If one LED is damaged, the segment may not light but the rest of the
flex ribbon will light, unless the main trace is damaged. If this is the case, the damaged section
can be cut out and the two pieces joined together using the ZFS-CH0-RGB10J.
The 5 meter reel of ribbon is made up of segments containing LEDs and a current controlling
element. Marks at the beginning and end of each segment show where the ribbon can be cut with
a pair of sharp scissors or wire cutters without losing the function of the LEDs. Joiner connector
ZCH-170-RGB-J can be used to connect the ribbon to a power supply, dimmer or controller. A full
reel of the 12V ZFS-10504-RGB contains 150 LEDs with a maximum wattage of 36 Watts. A 45
Watt power supply is recommended to allow for a 20% margin when the full reel is used. A full reel
of the 24V ZFS-105000-24RGB contains 300 LEDs with a maximum wattage of 72 Watts. A 90
Watt power supply is recommended to allow for a 20% margin when the full reel is used.
The maximum recommended continuous length for the ZFS-10504-RGB
or the ZFS-105000-24RGB is five meters - one reel.

if, \ < rgb="" controller="" jkl‘s="" l="" 000="" 000="" 0000000="">JKL’s LED RGB Flex Ribbon comes in reels that are 5 meter long (16 feet) wtih 190mm
(7.5 inches) of connector cable at each end of the reel. The connector cable has four
wires, one for each color, Red, Green and Blue, and a black wire for the voltage input.
The RGB controller (ZCTR-06) comes with one connector for the voltage input and for
connecting to the LED ribbon. The RGB controller output consists of four connections, one
for each color, Red, Green and Blue, and a connection for the voltage output. The red,
green and blue wires on the controller output cable correspond to those of the same color
on the LED ribbon connector cable.
The V+ connection of the RGB controller input is to be connected to a power supply output
positive wire or terminal. The V- connection of the input cable is to be connected to a
power supply output negative wire or terminal.

With the power supply, RGB controller and LED RGB Flex Ribbon connected, turn on the
power supply. Turn on the controller using the red On/Off button on the remote.
Pressing the mode button repeatedly toggles through each color mode - seven static color
modes, two “flash” modes, two “fade” modes, strobe modes and 3 crossfade modes.
When set in a static color mode the brightness can be controlled.
In the two “flash” modes the LED ribbon will flash the colors on and off in sequence. The
first flash mode gives a rotation of red, green and blue. The second flash mode will cycle
through red, yellow, green, cyan, blue and violet. The next two “fade” modes give the
same two color sequences but instead of flashing , the LEDs fade gently in and out of
each color. With all modes other than static the speed of the color changing can be
adjusted by pressing the speed up & speed down buttons. However, the brightness
cannot be adjusted.
When the power supply is turned off the memory in the RGB controller will remember the
last settings used and the same color mode will be in use when the controller is turned
back on.

Single channel dimming for the red, green and blue LEDs can be accomplished using a
Pulse Width Modulating (PWM) dimmer, such as the ZDM-01, which will maintain
operating voltage to the ribbon. To manipulate the individual R-G-B color channels in the
ribbon, three dimmers can be used as described in the Channel Dimming Diagram.
