I cant get it to do anything. I can get green or blue on any of my three strings but that's it. I;ve got all of them set to presets and it just doesn't work like it should. I can try any of the other oprions , but they either just go out completely, or---Blue.

We need to know which devices you have, and some screenshots of the setup tabs so we can see where you are.

The strip is doing what you have programed it to do, show Blue.

Careful with the amount of lights used on each channel and in total on the Farbwerk unit.

Maybe I'm wrong here but it could probably be because it's protecting itself if you haven't damaged it yet.

Read this below taken from the site.

Quoted

Comaptible LED strips:
LED strips for 12 V, common anode. Suitable LED strips and connectors are available from Aqua Computer.
Maximum current per channel: 2,5 A
Maximum combined current (all channels): 8 A (resulting in a maximum total power of 96 Watts at 12 Volts)
