Operating Instructions
Controller Function – Photoperiod Programs
The Controller Unit can be programmed to control the photoperiod and brightness of the
system throughout the day. There are a total of 2 user-definable programs that can be stored
in the system.
Understanding Time Points
There are a total of 8 Time Points for each program. You can program different luminous
output intensity at each Time Point to control the photoperiod and brightness of the system.
For example, the following table demonstrates how you could program the Time Points such
that the system would increases light gradually from 10:00am, peaks at 4:00pm then slowly
decreases light until it is turned off at 11:00pm.
