Can you guys please look over my LED-WIZ wiring diagram?

I keep it simple - on the button LED, one leg goes to a fused 5v line, the other directly to the LED-Wiz. I don't work about banks or selections or anything like that. I use LED Blinkly to coordinate all lighting, and everything works fine. I too was slightly confused initially, but it's best to keep it simple. No issues!

I did look at your diagram, and it screams you don't know what you're doing. I get that you condensed the RGB wires of each LEDinto one line, but you can't just go around creating your own schematic standards when there are already standards in place.If you don't want to take the time to learn the subject, I'm not going to take the time to "help" you, because you wouldn't learn anything when it's being forced down your throat so fast you don't have time to digest it. If electricity, especially low voltage DC, scares or is unsettling to someone, that someone shouldn't be in this hobby. Hundreds of people with limited knowledge of electricity, such as yourself, have used the LED-Wiz with success. It's not that hard when you take the time to read the directions and actually try to understand what they're saying, instead of giving up and wanting someone to either do it for you, or tell you exactly how to do it. There's plenty of threads on here showing how people have wired their controls and LEDs. Digest the information, use your brain, and you'll figure it out. I've held other member's hands through wiring before, even built a CP (fully wired) for a member I have never met, and it did none of them any real good. Don't be afraid to try to learn something you don't currently understand. Knowledge doesn't come instantly, you've got to work to earn it. Follow the breadcrumbs...

I'm a designer and know illustrator fairly well. I didn't think it was necessary to use industry standard software to create a diagram. I was simply trying to communicate to a message board how I was planning to wire my hardware prior to doing it so I could make revisions if necessary. Maybe this is where I fell short. Thanks for the input.

I didn't mention anything about the software you used to create the diagram. I think this is where you're falling short: reading comprehension. You're reading the directions, but not processing the information. It's all in there, trust me, it's all I used to wire mine up.

Again, I was confused too, but it's really not that hard. One leg to your power source, the other to the LED-Wiz. Try one button and see what happens.  :cheers:
