    The IntelliClimate is, without doubt, the most advanced and user-friendly grow room environment controller on the market. It has a wide range of possible applications which we will discuss briefly in this section. To keep the user interface as simple as possible, only the readings and settings relevant to the selected features are displayed on the controller’s LCD and on the computer.
  • Page 6 You may select either degrees C or degrees F for temperature. CO concentration is measured in ppm and for the more advanced user VPD is measured in kPa/m2. The date format is selectable between mm/dd/yy and dd/mm/yy formats ©2018 Autogrow Systems Ltd V4.5...
  • Page 7 For humour, we have a selection of alarm sounds including regular, fun and adult. These can be selected on IntelliGrow under setup. Please head to our online Help, found here: help.autogrow.com/intelligrow. Outputs The outputs voltages are all dependent on the power supply adapter used. A 24V DC power is normally provided with the unit in which case all outputs will be 24V DC.
