• 

The RGB programmable kit can be easily assembled by students and hobbyists with 

basic electronic knowledge. The controller is already programmed with sequences, 

you just need to assemble and enjoy their functioning.

• 

What is more, it can be used for advanced knowledge people, because you can 

create sequences and reprogramming using PIC-600, without removing the PIC from 

the kit using the ISCP port.

 

• 

This kit can be upgraded in power output stage, if required, and control more RGB 

LED strips.

Preloaded sequences

PCB ready to be upgraded

 Do not expose to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

  Do not use or store the equipment in places where it might get wet. Can cause 

malfunctions.

 The kit contains small parts, do not leave small children to reach.

 We recommend adult supervision when the kit is being assembled as it is required to 

use welding and soldering.

 Always use a soft dry cloth to clean the equipment.

- The K-435 operation is done by the S1 button as described below.

- One click: pause / continue , the sequence stops and maintains fixed the color that is 

currently displayed, pressing the button again will continue running the sequence.
- Double click: next sequence, advances to the next programmed sequence, when it reaches 

the last one, it will begin at the first again.

- Long Click: turn off / on , if the button is pressed for 1.2 seconds the K-435 will enter 

suspended mode (off), if pressed again it for 2 seconds, it will turn on.).

You will notice that the basic kit comes without Q1 to Q3, R6 to R11 and without power 

connection terminals, this is because, if you wish, you can purchase these components 

separately and install them to have outputs up to 5 Amps per channel, in addition to 

the possibility of integrating all the kit in a GP-16 box for which it already has the exact 

dimensions.
Do not look front LEDs when they are powered on, they could cause damage or irritation 

to the eyes.

Assemble the components according to the following suggested order.

1. Resistors R1 to R5.

2.  Micro switch button.

3.  Microcontroller base.

4. The C1 and C2 capacitors.

5. LEDs, R - red, G - Green, B - blue.

6. ICSP strip pin.

7. Female PCB plug.

8. The IC1 regulator.

9. Square battery clip first pass wires through the hole to secure.

10. Connect a square battery and check the voltage at the regulator terminals; must have 9V 

between pins 1-2, and 5V between pin 2 and 3, remove the square battery.

11. Insert the PIC (IC2) at its core, be careful with orientation.

12. Reconnect the battery and your kit should begin to work.
