Getting started

Install WLED and connect your first device.

Installation and requirements

• Which WLED firmware and which requirements does the adapter need?
• Do Magic Home and ready-made WLED controllers work with the adapter?
• How do I install the adapter from GitHub, and what does "initialise is not defined" mean?
• Why does the installation or update fail with "no matching version found"?

Setting up your first device

• How and when does the adapter find my WLED devices automatically?
• How do I add a device manually by IP, and what do I do if it still doesn't show up?
• Why does my device only show "WLED" or its MAC address as the name, and can I rename it?

Controlling the device for the first time

• Which state do I use to switch on and off, the whole device or just a segment?
• How do I use brightness as a percentage (0 to 100), for example for Alexa?
• Where do I choose the effect and the palette?
