2. Supported Driver Chips
LPD6803, LPD8806, LPD6812, LPD6813, LPD1882, LPD1889, LPD1883, LPD1886, DMX512, HDMX, APA102, P9813, LD1510, LD1512, LD1530, LD1532, UCS6909, UCS6912, UCS1903, UCS1909, UCS1912, WS2801, WS2803, WS2811, WS2812, DZ2809, SM16716, TLS3001, TLS3002, TM1812, TM1809, TM1804, TM1803, TM1914, TM1926, TM1829, TM1906, INK1003, BS0825, BS0815, BS0901, LY6620, DM412, DM413, DM114, DM115, DM13C, DM134, DM135, DM136, 74HC595, 6B595, MBI6023, MBI6024, MBI5001, MBI5168, MBI5016, MBI5026, MBI5027, TB62726, TB62706, ST2221A, ST2221C, XLT5026, ZQL9712, ZQL9712HV, etc.
Note: H803TC supports more than the chips listed above(some chips have the same sequence diagram, for example: UCS512, WS2821 and DMX512 have the same protocol, H803TC supports them all).
3. Basic Workflow
Work with SD card(offline)
Step1. Connect lights, slave controller and H803TC like the following image.(I didn\'t draw power supply)
I use NET1 and NET2, you can also just use NET1.
For example:
if you want to control WS2812B strip, just connect GND, DI on strip to GND, DAT on slave controller.
Step2. Download and Install LED Build Software
In this mode, you will need LED Build Software.

Step3. Program in LED Build Software
Basic software workflow
1. Place Pixels
For example there are 1 slave controller(H801RC) connected to H803TC
2. Light Setting
3. Make Effects
4. Output controller data and put it into SD card
For more details of software operation, please refer to the video post above.
Step4. Configure H803TC with 4 buttons
Power H803TC on
Long press "MENU" button to switch to English
Switch files
Set Playback Mode, press "OK" to save
Set speed, press "OK" to save
Set brightness
Set DMX Address for H803TC
This function is used when H803TC is connected to DMX console
For example:
If DMX Address is 1, you can use channel 1,2,3 on DMX Console to switch files, change speed and brightness.
If DMX Address is 3, you can use channel 3,4,5 on DMX Console to switch files, change speed and brightness.
In a word, the DMX Address is the starting channel on DMX Console.
Press "OK" to start addressing.
Work with PC(online)
Step1. Connect lights, slave controllers and H803TC like the following image.
Step2. Download and Install LED Studio Software
In this mode, you will need LED Studio Software.
LED Studio download link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1gzqyV6hfOgWFpuM3BoN1VaTGs
Step3. NET2 Setting
In online mode, NET2 transmits data received from PC to NET1.
Step4. Allocate an IP address for H803TC
Step5. Program in LED Studio Software
Basic software workflow
1. Place Pixels
For example there are 4 slave controllers(H801RC) connected to H803TC, 8 ports of H801RC are all connected to leds.
In LED Studio
2. Slave Setting
Note: many chips share one option, for example:
3. Multi-Net Setting
4. Make Effects
4. Control DMX512 chip lights
H803TC can control H801RC, H802RA and H801RA three kinds of slave controllers(they all support DMX512 protocol),
but by using H803TC + H802RA, you can set DMX address for DMX512 chips.
