Warning!
If the “intake” or “exhaust” mode is selected for an “Multifunctional Out 1-3“output, only
standard duct fans may be connected. Other devices may be damaged in the “intake” or
“exhaust” modes. When shipped, the functions of “Multifunctional Out 1 and 2” are set to
“intake” and “exhaust”.
1.
Place the humidity and temperature sensor
(7)
in an appropriate position inside the grow
room, usually at the top ends of your plants. Please use the hanger
(8)
on the sensor cable.
The sensor should not be directly exposed to the fog stream of the humidifier. Connect the
humidity and temperature sensor to any of the RJ45 jacks labeled “In/Out 1” to “In/Out 4”
(13)
.
2.
Connect the mains plugs
(5)
,
(6)
to the power supply (regular power socket). The device
has two mains plugs, offering the option to share the load (current) to two different
circuits.
3.
Set the function of the “Multifunctional Out 1-4” outputs and set up all other functions
according to your requirements.
4.
If using regular duct fans, we recommend disconnecting the mains plug
(6)
first.
Subsequently, connect the fans to the corresponding power outlets on the controller and
then reconnect the mains plug.
5.
Connect appropriate devices to the other power outputs.
6.
Connect the EC fans to the RJ45 jacks labeled “intake” and “exhaust”
(12)
,
(11)
using a
suitable cable.
7.
Connect other accessories (sensors, output extender) to the RJ45 jacks labeled In/Out 1-4
(13)
.
Always ensure that the maximum output power of the individual outputs is not exceeded.
Please find further information on the device’s label or section
11 (page 24, Table 4)
of this
manual.
Avoid exposing the temperature and humidity sensor to humility above 95% RH as the
sensor may become damaged.
EC fans have their own power supply cable, which should be plugged to a regular power
socket (always on). It should not be connected to a power socket on the climate controller.
The fan’s rpm control and turn off is made via the signal cable from the RJ45 jack on the
controller to the EC fan.
