INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
Congratulations on your purchase of the Autopilot PX1 Digital Lighting Controller. The PX1 is a dual
channel (dual zone) controller which can control up to 512 lights (up to 256 in each zone).
Traditional lighting controls use mechanical switches to power ballasts on and off. The PX1 Digital
Lighting Controller uses a low voltage control to switch, dim, and boost any Phantom ballasts
equipped with a USB port. The controller has two temperature sensors (one for each zone) and
has the capability of dimming lights during high temperatures and even shutting down lights at
extreme temperatures.
Ballast control is connected using common telephone cables (RJ12 plugs) which can be used to
daisy-chain the ballasts together. The ballast comes with an RJ12 to USB adapter. Compatible
ballasts will have a USB port to receive commands from the controller.
