Biocube 14 Steve's LED retrofit HELP

Kushing · Post by **Kushing** » Thu Jun 05, 2014 9:58 am

Hello, I bought a retrofit LED lightkit for my BIOCUBE and I want to hook up the lights to my Reef Angel and cannot understand how to do so. I contacted Steve's LED's and this is the email he sent back:
"It is simple to connect the ReefAngel. Do you have the PWM module? They offer the PWM Expansion Module that plugs directly into the LED drivers on your BC14 LED system, on the DIM1 and DIM2 ports with one black wire going to port "G". You must leave the dimmer knobs plugged into the LED driver for it to work."
I am clueless. I thought I could hook up the lights to the Reef Angel without an expansion module. The LED system has 2 sets of LED's one Actinic, one Datlight. If I can use the reef angel as is, How do I connect the wires? Please help me out. I would love to take advantage of the Reef Angels full potential. If I am not clear enough or you need more info , please ask! Thanks

Yes, you can use the standard channels on the side of the relay box.

Thanks for the quick reply. What kind of connectors are those that plug into the relay box? Where can I find them ? Do I need a ground hooked up like he says , if so where? Thanks for your time and your product is the legit ish.

You can get them in the webstore.
The pinout of the dimming ports can be found in the manual.
Basically, you will have a dimming + and a dimming -.
Each dimming + goes to each of your driver's positive channels.
Each dimming - goes to each of your driver's negative channels. I think for their driver, the negative channel is also the ground. So, connect all dimming - wires to the driver's ground.
