The two aux settings can be used to control the heating systems and the humidifiers and dehumidifiers. The menu
structure is as follows:
Pre-heat
The pre-heat function enables you to pre-heat a room before the lights come on. This is to useful
for preventing problems relating to condensation, etc.

Using an optional aux box, the controller can humidify or dehumidify during the periods lights on and lights off or
always. The menu structure is as follows:

You can read the room temperature (AT), relative humidity (RH%), plant temperature (PT), delta-T (DT) and the VPD value
on the VPD display screen. You can switch between PT and DT by pressing the + and – keys in this screen. PT is the
plant temperature measured with the plant temperature camera. Delta-T indicates the difference between AT and PT.
The difference between plant temperature and room temperature provides an indication of whether a plant vaporizes
or not. VPD provides an indication about the vaporization pressure. A crop that vaporizes normally is ca. 2 degrees
cooler than the room temperature. The vaporization pressure (VPD) is usually between 0.6 and 1.5 kPa.
Pressing the SET key on the VPD display screen will open the menu.
PT > AT Dim
PT>AT start dim
off
The crop does not vaporize adequately if the plant temperature is higher than the room temperature. The controller can
intervene by dimming the lights and turning off the CO2 dosing. The difference in temperature can be set by pressing
briefly on the SET key and using the + and – keys to fill in a value. A typical value is – for example, +2 degrees. The
controller will intervene if the leaves of the crop are 2 degrees warmer than the room.
PT>AT shutdown
PT>AT shut down
off
The plant temperature will increase further if the controller has intervened but no measures are taken to restart the
vaporization. The controller will then shut down the lights completely if the plant temperature rises. The difference in
temperature in which the controller shuts down all lights can be set in the PT>AT shut-down option. A typical value in
which the controller does this is u2 degrees higher than in PT>AT Dim (the4 degrees).
