ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLLERS
When setting restrike delays with your environmental controller, it is best to set a restrike delay at 20
minutes or longer to prevent constant restrikes throughout the day.
When installing your controller, it is best to program the controller for a staggered start with 40
luminaires or fewer on each start.
It is best to use special HID relays and high inrush circuit breakers to ensure proper performance.
For optimum performance, lighting sub-panels should have a fan installed to prevent high heat of
the sub-panel.
AUTOPILOT PX2 CONTROLLER
NOTE:
Phantom LP system uses ANALOG 0–11.5V control protocol.
Please ensure you select
ANALOG
when using with compatible PX series controllers.
The Autopilot PX2 Controller is designed to work with the Phantom Commercial DE Electronic
Ballast. Follow the PX2 Controller instructions for proper operation and to avoid ballast damage.
Typical setup for the PX2 Digital Lighting Controller is shown below.
Advanced Digital & Analog
Lighting Controller
(APDPX2)
Fixtures are not shown to scale.
IMPORTANT:
Do not attach data link cables to AC power cable. Always keep low voltage data cables and high voltage AC
power harness as far as possible from each other for stable signal transmission. Avoid coiling data cables as well as AC
harnesses in tight coils. Excess cable should be managed by creating long loops as opposed to tight coils.
