Question 1

Cannot connect. Red light is flashing, app says cannot connect. What now?

Accepted Answer

On my old iPhones 8+ and 6, I couldn't connect. I moved on to other projects and a month or two later, I got an iPhone 12. Last week I tried connecting. The new iOS asked for permission to connect to networks and for other devices. Also had my network password ready to copy and paste. I've heard that you have about 20 seconds to input the password. The light turned green during the device search and I am up and running. Can't say this was an easy experience. The iPhone app is below average for the type of color control you may want.

Question 2

The quick setup does not work, is there an advanced setup to connect to the device?

Accepted Answer

Long press “SET” for 3 seconds; When red indicating lamp blink quickly, device is under linking mode,then please add device in APP.If there still has problem,please send us screenshot in order center,thanks!☺

Question 3

i have 4 5 in 1 controllers and neither of them go in to pilot mode or blinking after holding the button 3 sec only changes colors what should i do?

Accepted Answer

[changes colors],maybe it's not WL5,it's LS2 controller.
1)There's  2 type 5 in 1 controller,model LS2 and WL5.
WL5 can be wifi controlled by APP directly,
LS2 only can be wifi controlled by APP via gateway hub(www.amazon.com/dp/B01N7C3HXQ)
2)Long press [SET] key on WL5,indicator red light would blink,device is ready for connection.
Long press [Switch] key on LS2,it wouldn't work,indicator light would change color for different color strip light(red is RGB mode,blue is RGB+CCT mode,etc)

Question 4

I bought this item together with the b0 and b8 wall controllers . i can only connect through app and miboxer app. not milight cloud or b0/b8 control?

Accepted Answer

Yes,you can,please linking WL5 controller with B0 and B8 wall controller first,linking way is available in each manual,as some power supply has time delay on turning off,please plug in/out the male connnector to WL5 to turn on/off electricity while linking it to B0 B8.Thanks!☺
