Here are some important things to consider when using the Hydro-X Control System.
● Each set of Hydro-X Control System can connect to one 3-in-1 sensor, one C02 sensor and one PAR
sensor, up to five optional water detectors and five optional smoke detectors. The 3-in-1 sensor is used to
detect temperature, humidity and light, the CO2 sensor is used to detect CO2 level, PAR sensor can detect
photosynthetically active radiation from light source. and the water and smoke detectors are used to detect
water leak and prevent fire respectively.
● Each lighting line MUST have a single wattage / type of fixture connected to it. You cannot mix fixtures
with different wattages on the same line interconnect wiring. When connected to lights which are controlled
by digital signal (such as ThinkGrow DE ballast), 256 lights can be controlled on each line, with potentially
512 lights controlled in total. A lighting control adapter (signal converter) is available for controlling the
traditional lights which are controlled by analog signal (0-10v), such as Gavita etc. Due to the limitation of
the analog signal, the system can control up to 40 traditional ballasts on each line, 80 traditional ballasts in
total on both lines.
● Various devices (such as for Temp/ Humid /CO2, etc.) can be connected to this unit through 4 types of
different Device Stations, Each device has its own and dedicated device station, which can be purchased
separately depending on your needs. Don’ t mix up device station for different device.
● Sensors, Device Stations and Ballasts are connected to main controller by using RJ12 cables to
daisy-chain all the devices together. Each of the sensors and devices stations comes with an RJ12 “T”
splitter and RJ12 cables. Various length pre-crimped RJ12 cables and additional T-shape splitters can be
purchased separately.
● A maximum distance of 1000 f/ 300 meters between the HCS-1 Hydro-X Control System and the devices
to be controlled is needed.
● Follow all local and national electrical codes for installation requirements.
● The Hydro-X is designed for indoor use only. lt is recommended to use our
Trolmaster's accessories for good performance.
FACTS
Hydro-X keeps pace with the times, it has the ability to connect to the network directly with a standard
network cable. After downloading the app, you can monitor and control the environment of your grow rooms
anytime and anywhere, You could read the historical data through graph on your smartphone and receive
