Step 3: Connecting to the Controller

The X Lights controller connects through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. Wi-Fi is recommended for daily use; Bluetooth acts as a backup for short-range control (within 10 metres).Connecting via Wi-Fi

  1. Ensure your phone is connected to your home’s Wi-Fi network.
  2. Open the app — it will automatically send your Wi-Fi credentials to the controller.
  3. Once connected, share your account to allow others to access the lights without re-configuring the device.

If Wi-Fi setup fails, press the Wi-Fi reset button on your controller (inside the waterproof box).Connecting via Bluetooth

  1. Tap the Bluetooth icon in the app.
  2. Stay within range (about 10 metres) for stable connectivity.
  3. Bluetooth offers the same lighting controls as Wi-Fi, minus internet requirements — perfect for temporary setups or weak signal areas.

If you use multiple controllers, group them in the app for simpler management. Grouped controllers sync lighting patterns automatically — ideal for coordinated architectural or landscape installations.Power On / OffTurn your lights on or off from the main dashboard. When powered on, lights default to the last active mode or pattern.
