Multifunctional Out
A function can be assigned to every power socket on the controller. This also applies to
Multifunctional out 5, which is a transistor output (MOSFET). Multifunctional Out 5 is
connected to the RJ45 jack “Lights 0-10V”.
For all power sockets/outputs these functions can be selected:
•
Humidifier
•
Dehumidifier
•
Lights
•
Interval
•
Heating mat
•
Chiller
•
CO2 valve
•
CO2&Heating (CO2-Generator)
•
Event 1
•
Event 2
•
Event 3
•
Event 4
•
Event 1&2
•
Event 3&4
•
Event 1&2&3
•
Event 1&2&3&4
•
Deactivated
For the power sockets Multifunctional Out 1-4 these functions are available in addition:
•
Intake AC
•
Exhaust AC
The mains cable of an EC fan may not be connected to a power socked that is set to
intake/exhaust AC!
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 10 of this manual.
The sockets of
GROW
BASE
are not optimized for switching LED luminaires or energy-saving
lamps. To guarantee that the luminaires are completely switched off, the 4th socket of the
GROW
BASE
PRO
controller should be used for LED luminaires or energy-saving lamps.
Information regarding the DC output (MOSFET) Multi Out 5 can be found in the appendix in
chapter 8.
When small inductive loads (contactors, small pumps) are switched by sockets Multi Out 1-3, in
particular cases it can happen that the external device is not switched off correctly with the
standard configuration of the output. If you are experiencing this kind of behaviour, please
contact our support. [email protected]
Firmware update
With an USB memory stick you can update the controller’s firmware.
Please note: All power sockets on the controller and the EC fans are turned off during a reboot
or a firmware update.
The following steps explain how to do a firmware update:
1.
Copy the firmware file to an USB stick, formatted in FAT32 format. The firmware file must
be placed on the top level of the folder structure. It may not be saved inside a folder.
