will be powered by another source. Then you will plug the trigger cable from the trigger box into outlet 6
(output 5) of the iPonic
TM 614 controller.
Ventilation Fans Setup
If you wish to control ventilation fans with the iPonic TM 614 make sure the equipment is selected using the
Equipment Selection procedure at the beginning of this chapter. Assuming small (less than two amperes
each) ventilation intake and exhaust fans for your VentFans output, this equipment type can be plugged
directly into outlets 7 & 8 of the iPonic
TM 614 controller so long as the total amperage drawn by all
equipment on the iPonic TM 614 does not exceed 15 amps.
Air Conditioner Setup
You have the option of hardwiring a thermostat for a central heating and air conditioning unit on the dry
contact switches on your iPonic
TM 614’s printed circuit board. Refer to the Advanced Section of this
manual for more information on hardwiring additional equipment including thermostatic controls for an air
conditioning unit.
Central Heating and Air
You have the option of hardwiring a thermostat for a central heating and air conditioning unit on the dry
contact switches on your iPonic
TM
614’s printed circuit board. Refer to the Advanced Section of this
manual for more information on hardwiring additional equipment including thermostatic controls for central
heating and air.
Temperature Setpoints
With the iPonic TM 614 you can keep the temperature of your hydroponic facility within your own specified
normal range. To do this, there is a programmed cooling temperature target called a “Cool Setpoint” and
a heating temperature target called a “Heat Setpoint”. The temperature range between these two targets
is called the “Normal” temperature range. If the measured temperature is within the normal temperature
band, the cooling and heating equipment will be turned off.
Whenever the temperature within your hydroponic facility moves above the cool setpoint, or below the
heat setpoint (falls outside the
Normal temperature range) the iPonic
TM
614 can enter progressively
stronger cooling or heating stages to bring it back in line. By default, there is one cooling stage for each
piece of cooling equipment installed and one heating stage for each piece of heating equipment. If you
would like to program additional cooling or heating stages please refer to the
Advanced Temperature
Controls chapter in the Advanced section of this manual.
To Switch Between Degrees Fahrenheit and Degrees Celsius
From the home screen of your iPonic TM 614, press the menu button. Select option 3, “System Setup” with
the wheel and press OK. Select option 9, “Measurement Units” with the wheel and press OK. Press
button 5 to select “Temp Units” and press OK. Press OK again to save your changes.
To Change the Cooling and Heating Setpoints
From the home screen of your iPonic
TM 614, press the menu button. Select option 1, “Current Setpoints”
and press OK. Select option 1, “Temp Setpoint” and press OK. Press button 4 on the user interface to
choose the time setpoint period you want to adjust the cooling and heating setpoints for. Press button 5 to
change the lower of the two temperatures known as the Heat Setpoint. Use the wheel to adjust the
temperature setpoint by an increment of 0.1º or you can press button 1 to change this increment to 1º and
then use the wheel to change the temperature setpoint. Press OK. Press button 6 to change the higher of
the two temperatures known as the Cool Setpoint. When you are done making changes to the cooling
and heating setpoints, press OK. Press OK again to confirm your changes.
Humidity Control
Dehumidifier Setup
If you wish to control a dehumidifier in your facility with the iPonic TM 614 make sure the equipment is
selected using the Equipment Selection procedure at the beginning of this chapter. Assuming a small
(less than three amperes) dehumidifier for your DeHum output, this equipment type can be plugged
