INTERFERENCE from MH and HPS LIGHTS Certain grow light models with HID* ballasts that do not use electromagnetic shielding will create an area of radio frequency interference (RFI). This can distort nearby frequency-sensitive components like internet lines and climate sensors. RFI can be emitted from the ballast’s cords or the ballast itself.

PROGRAMMING CONTROLLER MODES Pressing the mode button will cycle through the controller’s available programming modes: OFF, ON, AUTO (4 triggers), TIMER TO ON, TIMER TO OFF, CYCLE (On and Off), and SCHEDULE (On and Off). OFF MODE Your device will remain off regardless of temperature, humidity, or time-based triggers.
Page 17
PROGRAMMING AUTO MODE (HIGH TEMPERATURE TRIGGER) Pressing the up or down button sets the high temperature trigger. Your device will turn on if the probe’s reading meets or exceeds this threshold. If the probe’s reading falls below this trigger point, your device will turn off.
Page 18
PROGRAMMING AUTO MODE (LOW TEMPERATURE TRIGGER) Pressing the up or down button sets the low temperature trigger. Your device will turn on if the probe’s reading meets or falls below this threshold. If the probe’s reading rises above this trigger point, your device will turn off.
Page 19
PROGRAMMING AUTO MODE (HIGH HUMIDITY TRIGGER) Pressing the up or down button sets the high humidity trigger. Your device will turn on if the probe’s reading meets or exceeds this threshold. If the probe’s reading falls below this trigger point, your device will turn off.
Page 20
PROGRAMMING AUTO MODE (LOW HUMIDITY TRIGGER) Pressing the up or down button sets the low humidity trigger. Your device will turn on if the probe’s reading meets or falls below this threshold. If the probe’s reading rises above this trigger point, your device will turn off.
Page 21
PROGRAMMING TIMER TO ON MODE Pressing the up or down button sets a countdown time. During the countdown, your device will be set to TIMER TO ON OFF. Once the timer ends, your device (COUNTDOWN END POINT) will trigger to turn on. The countdown will begin if no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds.

PROGRAMMING °F/°C SETTING Changes the displayed units to Fahrenheit or Celsius. Press the up or down button to cycle through °F and °C. All displayed units will automatically convert when adjusting this setting. CLOCK SETTING Adjusts the current clock time. Press the up or down button to increase or decrease the time.
Page 26
PROGRAMMING CALIBRATION TEMPERATURE SETTING Adjusts the temperature reading the sensor probe is measuring. Press the up or down button to increase or decrease the value by 2°F (or 1°C) increments. The calibration cycle ranges from -20°F to 20°F (or -10°C to 10°C) and will be applied to the sensor probe’s measurements.
Page 27
PROGRAMMING BUFFER SETTING This setting modifies AUTO Mode programming by creating a buffer for temperature and humidity triggers. This sets a different trigger-off point for the triggers, generating an on and off band that prevents the device from triggering too quickly from small climate fluctuations. You can set a buffer figure for temperature triggers, and a buffer figure for humidity triggers.
Page 28
PROGRAMMING BUFFER SETTING (LOW TEMPERATURE TRIGGERS) For Low Temperature Triggers, this buffer figure will create a trigger-off point above your set trigger point. For example, if you had set the Low Temperature Trigger at 50°F and set the Temperature Buffer at 4°F. Then your device will trigger on when it meets or falls below 50°F, and only trigger off when it rises above 54°F.
Page 29
PROGRAMMING BUFFER SETTING (HIGH HUMIDITY TRIGGERS) For High Humidity Triggers, this buffer figure will create a trigger-off point below your set trigger point. For example, if you had set a High Humidity Trigger at 70% and set a Humidity Buffer at 4%. Then your device will trigger on when it meets or rises above 70%, and only trigger off when it falls below 66%.
Page 30
PROGRAMMING BUFFER SETTING (LOW HUMIDITY TRIGGERS) For Low Humidity Triggers, this buffer figure will create a trigger-off point above your set trigger point. For example, if you had set the Low Buffer Trigger at 40% and set the Humidity Buffer at 6%. Then your device will trigger on when it meets or falls below 40%, and only trigger off when it rises above 46%.
