    Well , I manage to power up 7 out of 12 leds on that driver. I went back and tripple check + to - . It seem to be correct. But somehow only 7 leds are on. Any clue why only 7 light up?

    leds not light up.

    I don't know why my led is not light up. I have it all plug in and connect like the Manuel say.

    Led are connected to - and + correctly
    Dimmer are connected to driver correctly and plug in controller

    When I plug the power, it didn't come up, but when I pull out the plug, the light flash for a quick second. I have this happen before when I don't have the controller. But I have the controller now, I don't know why is not light up. Help please, thank.

    Do I need to reset the typhon controller? I have try my led with non dimmable driver, and my led DID light up. But when I switch over to the dimmable driver it not light up. Do you reset or set the typhon controller? I don't know what else is wrong.
