Some of us starting this DIY for LED panels pretty much have the idea down on how to figure
out how many LED's you can put on a driver and wire them up to a power supply .
That being said I have no clue (and other DIY'ers) on how to wire a switch into panel to be able to control and shut on/off each channel independently of each other.
For those of us who want to move onto the next step of implementing an on/off switch any help would be appreciated. As of now I can only cut the power by pulling the plug which will shut down both channels.
For me I have 2 channels and can Dim each channel independently but I can't shut off a one or both channels via a switch because I don't know how to wire this.
I'm thinking it has to be maybe a relay (?) spliced in before the dimmer then wired to a toggle/rocker switch ?
Seriously..I have no clue and wouldn't try to do this this without some serious know how being it's electricity and it's dangerous if not done correctly. So I'll wait for replies before ever trying this myself and guessing.
Can anyone draw something on how it's done or what parts are needed to accomplish this ?
Thanks
