PropX-Pro Quick Start

Wire a prop to your PropX-Pro, power it up, pair with the app, and fire your first output — nine steps, about ten minutes.

Nine steps from box to a working prop. For sensors, sound, lights, and DMX, continue to the setup guide.

Before you start, you’ll need

  • Your PropX-Pro controller
  • A power supply between 9 and 24 volts DC (never higher)
  • A prop or light that runs on your supply's voltage, drawing under 1.5 amps
  • A small flat screwdriver
  • A computer with Bluetooth and the PropX Control Center app
  • Time: about 10 minutes

⚠️ Warning: Never use a power supply above 24 volts — it can permanently damage the controller. Check the supply's label first.

⚠️ Warning: Keep the power supply unplugged until step 3. Never wire the controller while it has power.

The nine steps

  1. Install the PropX Control Center app.

    (Download link: PLACEHOLDER.)

    You'll see: the app opens to its main window.

  2. Connect your prop's two wires to output pair 1

    (a pair of screw clamps marked − and +), matching + to + and − to −.

    You'll see: both wires held firmly, no bare wire showing.

  3. Plug your power supply into the power jack.

    (Bare-wire supply? Use the screw power terminal — see the setup guide.)

    You'll see: every light flashes red, then green, then blue — start-up.

  4. Wait for the Status 1 light to turn solid blue.

    You'll see: solid blue = on and waiting for you.

  5. Put the Pro in pairing mode: hold the Record and Output 1 buttons together for about 5 seconds, then release.

    You'll see: the status light flashes purple — ready to pair.

  6. In the app, click Scan.

    You'll see: your controller as PropX- plus your serial number (printed on its label).

  7. Click Add next to your controller.

    You'll see: it connects — no PIN needed.

  8. In the app, turn on output 1.

    You'll see: your prop switches on. (Status 2 flashing yellow/purple instead? The controller senses no load — power off and re-check step 2.)

  9. Turn output 1 off.

    You'll see: your prop switches off. Done.
