LED Controller with DIODER from IKEA?

---

Hey guys,

is it possible to connect this device (http://www.banggood.com/DC5-24V-LED-RF-Remote-Controller-For-RGB-5050-or-3528-SMD-LED-Strip-p-75315.html) to the DIODER from IKEA (and by that replacing the box with the color wheel?

If not, are there any other possibilities to get 433MhZ to the IKEA DIODER?

Thanks!

Edit: Maybe this one is another option, the remote seems more similar to the IKEA color wheel. (http://www.banggood.com/18A-12-24V-Touch-Screen-LED-Round-RGB-Strip-RF-Controller-For-RGB-Strip-Lights-p-989342.html)

Interesting… I think the second option could work well! If you decide to try it, please post results!

Here’s the wiring colors: http://351685206.r.lightningbase-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/DSC01594.jpg, Which is R,G, B and + and - .
The RF remote you linked uses 433MHZ, which makes this even more interesting. And it seems to support 12V.

Looks totally plausible.

I’ll definitely try it. It should be not a big problem to connect the controller to homeduino, right?

@mnt It will require a new protocol, of course (unless it’s already supported!). But I don’t think this is impossible at all.

https://github.com/pimatic/rfcontroljs/issues/42 There’s one issue closed with RF RGB.

And a second one

When you provide enough rf data, then we can simple create the protocol for your device.

I ordered one from amazon (I could not wait and it was only EUR 3 more). It will arrive today so I can try soon.

I already played around with the DIODER, it has 5 pins coming from the color wheel - that’s where I would attach the LED controller. The three in the middle are RGB.

I will try today and update with results and possibly with RF data.

So, I bought this LED controller http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B00GAV1GI8. It controls the DIODER very well, has a remote and everything. Problem: I cannot record any RF data from it. Nothing. I tried with a 433mhz remote from a wireless power outlet - there something is recorded, but with the LED controller remote nothing is showing up.

Any ideas?

I have the same controller laying around… But also couldn’t see the rf signals in pimatic sometimes I see 1 or 2 signals coming in on different buttons, but that’s it.
