FUT038 - 1 to 8 Zones Self repeating RF RGB+W LED controller

1 to 8 Zones Self repeating RF RGB+W LED controller (FUT038)

This controller can be used with either the 4 or 8 zone remote and panel. This means that you no longer need to change your controllers should you need to expand from 4 to 8 zones! All you need to do is change your remote or wall panel and reprogram your controllers to the new remote!

But the remote control is not the only way to control your RGB+W Controller! You can also add the 2.4 GHz WiFi Gateway (sold separately) to control your lights from your phone from anywhere in the world using a WiFi or a mobile 4G connection. The WiFI gateway supports third party voice controls such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Note that the zone option may not be offered on 3rd party applications and that LED Montreal does not support these interfaces.
 
This controller offers more color than ever. Thanks to the saturation control, you can create multiple variants of your favorite color. Saturation allows you to turn make pastel colors, something that cannot be achieved with lower priced – lower end controllers. You can also choose from 9 pre-set color changing modes. All the modes can be dimmed, and the speed of the color changes are completely adjustable.

About the zones: You will need at least one Controller per zone. Each zone can be composed of Multiple controllers. If you put More than one controller on a Zone, all controllers will all act as one, thanks to the auto-transmitting/auto-synchronizing feature of this RGB+W Controller. If one of the controllers is within the range of your remote control, all the other controllers assigned to the zone with will together. Simply put, you could have a kilometer long of Strips and they will be synchronized given there is a controller every 30m. And yes, this is all done wirelessly! This kind of set up lets you use several power supplies for a bigger set up without losing voltage and brightness.

You no longer need multiple remotes for your RGB, RGBW, RGBW CCT and Single-color Strips. The FUT038 Controller family now lets you mix different types of LED Strips on a single remote. Just make sure that you follow these simple rules to do so: There can only be one type pf LED Strips per Zone. So, if you put a Single-Color Strip on Zone 2, all Strips on Zone 2 must be Single Color and will be operated at once.
