Skydance WZ-SPI LED controller

A Zigbee controller for addressable (pixel) LED strips. It drives a colour strip, and has a set of built-in animated effects. The same controller is also sold as the Gledopto GL-SPI-206P.

How it connects​

The controller uses Zigbee, so you need a Zigbee coordinator added to Sensa first, such as the SMLight SLZB or the Sonoff Dongle M.

Add to Sensa Nomad​

Open Settings, choose the Devices tab and press Pair Zigbee, then put the controller into pairing mode. Sensa adds it as soon as it joins, and it moves to Added.

If it has been paired before and is waiting under Discovered, tick it and press Add Selected Devices. If it is not there yet, press Scan.

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

A card on the Habitation Lighting tab with a power button, brightness, colour and an Effect dropdown for the built-in animations. Pick None to stop one. See Lighting.

Good to know​

  • Tell Sensa which strip you fitted. From the cog on the controller's row on the Devices tab, set LED Strip Profile to match the product code on the reel. If part of the strip stays dark, the profile is usually wrong. See Addressable strips.
  • Number of Pixels starts at 60. If the far end of a longer strip never lights, raise it.
  • Fed from a relay? Power-On Delay and Leave Relay On are on the same cog. See Lights fed from a relay.
