Work with SD card(offline)
Step1. Connect lights, slave controller and
H805TC like the following image.
I connect H801RC to NET1 and NET2, you can also just
connect H801RC to NET1.
If you want to control for example WS2812B strip,
just connect GND, DI on strip to GND, DAT on slave
controller.
Step2. Download and Install LED Build Software
In this mode(SD card mode), you need LED Build
Software.

H805TC): https://drive.google.com/open?

Step3. Program in LED Build Software
In the video, I show H805TC connects one
H801RC, if you connect more, same theory.
Basically, you can learn everything you need to
make H805TC work in the video. The following is
some text explanation.
Place Pixels
Assume only one H801RC is connected to H805TC
Light Setting
Tips
(1) . In sculpt window, you can press “Ctrl” as
dragging a rectangle from a point, you can set
size as you wish.
(2) . when you choose color in color plate, click
one color, press “Ctrl” as clicking another
color(or the same color), one color will gradually
change to another color.
Step4. Output controller data and put it into SD
card
Step5. Configure H805TC with 4 buttons
Assume you have 3 files named 01.dat, 02.dat,
03.dat in sd card.
Power H805TC on
Long press "MENU" to switch to English
Then, press “MENU”
Switch files
Press “MENU”
Set speed, press "OK" to save settings
In the latest version of H805TC, we change
“SET” to “OK”.
Press “MENU”
Set brightness, press "OK" to save settings
Press “MENU”
Set Play Mode
Single: controller only plays one single file
Week:
Monday: controller plays the first file
Tuesday: controller plays the second file
.
.
.
Sunday: controller plays the seventh file.
In this example, you only have 3 files.
So,
Monday: controller plays file 01.dat
Tuesday: controller plays file 02.dat
Wednesday: controller plays file 03.dat
Thursday: controller plays file 01.dat
Friday: controller plays file 02.dat
Saturday: controller plays file 03.dat
Sunday: controller plays file 01.dat
If you have 10 files for example named as 001.dat,
002.dat.......010.dat, controller just plays the first
seven files(001.dat, 002.dat......007.dat). Controller
will not play the last three files(008.dat, 009.dat,
010.dat).
Date (same theory as “Week”):
In one month, first day: play the first file
.
.
.
.
31th day: play the 31th file.
In this example, on the fourth day, controller
will play 01.dat.
If you have for example 40 files, the 32th to
40th file will not be played.
Lunar: Lunar only applies in China, you can ignore
it.
Table: controller will play dat files as scheduled in
timetable made in “LED Build Software”.
The following displays how to make timetable in
“LED Build Software”.
In main window, click “Tool” -- “Schedule”.
Software pops up the following window:
1. Choose “Clock Module”
2. Choose Time Zone
3. Choose playing by “Week”, “Gregorian” or
“Lunar”.
4. Choose on which day, what time, to do what (play
the specified file or adjust brightness).
The above means: on Monday, 9 AM(start from this
point), play the third file.
5. Click “Add”
6. Click “Save”
7. Copy 123.tab and dat files into SD card, set “
Play Mode” as “Table”, controller will play dat files
as scheduled.
Example:
The timetable above means: everyday from 18:00,
controller play the fifth file, from 20:00( except
August 1), play the second file. On Sunday, from
22:00, brightness will turn to be 18. When it’s
August 1, 20:00, controller will play the third file.
Note:
(1). At the same time, for example 20:00, controller
will play file at the lower position(as described
above), which means the lower file always has the
first priority.
(2). When you power controller before 18:00,
controller will play the specified file set by button,
when it’s 18:00, controller will play files as
scheduled in timetable. When you power controller
after 18:00, controller will play files scheduled in
timetable immediately.
Press “OK” to save settings
Press “MENU”
It’s fixed, you cannot change it.
Press “MENU”
This function is used when H805TC is connected to
DMX console
For example:
If DMX Address is 1, you can use channel 1,2,3 on
DMX Console to switch files, change speed and
brightness.
If DMX Address is 3, you can use channel 3,4,5 on
DMX Console to switch files, change speed and
brightness.
In a word, the DMX Address is the starting channel on
DMX Console.
Press “MENU”
Press “OK” and two arrows to set current time.
Then press “OK” to save settings
Control DMX512 chips
H805TC can control H801RC, H802RA and H801RA
three kinds of slave controllers(they all support
DMX512 protocol),
but by using H805TC + H802RA, you can set DMX
address for DMX512 chips.
Take TM512 strip for example:
Step1. Set them up
Step2. Set address with four buttons
