BALLAST OVERVIEW The Phantom Ballast Commercial DE is an ideal ballast choice for efficient growing. It was created with state-of-the-art microprocessor technology to utilize the industry’s double-ended 1000W and 750W HPS lamps. This ballast (and all 40/50 Series Phantom Ballasts) includes a Control Port on the front panel which allows connection to and data communication with the Autopilot PX1 Lighting Controller via USB.
NOTES ON VARIABLE OUTPUT CONTROL • When a USB cable is connected to the ballast’s control port, manual selection of wattage output is defeated. The power-level LEDs surrounding the variable output button on the bottom panel will go dark, and the LED labeled “PX1” will go on. When/if the USB cable is disconnected from the control port, output control is returned to the variable output button after a short delay, indicated by the LEDs becoming active again after start-up.

WORKING WITH OTHER EQUIPMENT 1. Environmental Controllers • When setting restrike delays with your environmental controller, it is best to set a restrike delay at 20 minutes or longer to prevent constant restrikes throughout the day. • When installing your controller, it is best to program the controller for a staggered start with 40 luminaires or less on each start.
Hydrofarm representative. Tracking Performance It is best to map out the lights by location to track any maintenance or replacement data. Consult PARsource/Hydrofarm for examples of product mapping. TIPS • The lamp may require 10-30 minutes cooling time before restarting.
Electronic ballasts come with safety shut-offs. A non-working ballast may be in the shut-off mode. To reset the shut-off, turn off the power to the ballast for a minimum of 15 minutes. Restart the ballast. If the ballast does not start, review the basic diagnosis steps or consult with a PARSource/Hydrofarm representative.

COMMON SYMPTOMS (DE LAMPS) Possible Reason How to Diagnose Place a known working lamp in the ballast. If it does not flicker or Bad lamp have erratic start, the original lamp is bad. Lamp not installed properly Check to see if lamp is properly and securely installed. Lamp / ballast incompatibility Try another lamp brand.
