The DLM-4 Zone Controller is specially designed to set up a Daily 
Lighting Management system for your Dutch Lighting Innovations 
fixtures. The controller is equipped with an easy to use menu system 
in six languages (English, Spanish, German, Dutch, French and 
Mandarin).

The DLM-4 Zone Controller can be connected to up to 4 separate 
zones of DLI lighting fixtures. Each zone can control up to 255 lights 
and 1 sensor, so in total you can control 1020 lights and 4 sensors. 

Once connected to the HIDs, the controller will monitor and control 
(Turn ON and OFF) the lights using a digital timeclock. Up to (4) 
separate temperature sensors can be connected that will measure the 
temperature of up to (4) zones / growing areas. The user can select to 
dim the lights if the temperature goes above their chosen setpoint, or 
to turn the lights off.
