Lights - Agrowtek GrowControl GCX Instruction Manual

Lights

The lights function can operate basic on/off discrete control and for dimmable control with PWM or 0-10V
dimming. Dimming controls can be ramped up and down with a ramp-rate setting. Multiple dimming set-
tings can be layered to create a complex lighting pro le. Lighting control includes features to dim lights
based on a light intensity or if a high temperature condition exists.
To con gure a lighting control, set the enable and schedule properties, then select a control mode (discrete
or dimmable.) Con gure the output assignments and if the light is dimmable, set the the target intensity
and ramp rate.
It is possible to con gre both a discrete output for controlling mains/circuit power and a dimmable output
for controlling intensity.
