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.
Follow these steps to ensure proper functionality and to prevent radio frequency interference from
affecting your sensor probe:
TIP 1
Keep the probe cord far away
from your ballast's cords to ensure
the controller properly detects
climate conditions.
You may also wrap the probe
cord and create a cone around
the sensor head with aluminum
foil tape.
TIP 2
Do NOT plug your grow light and
inline fan into the same duplex
outlet. Plug your grow light and
inline fan into separate power
strips and electrical sockets.
