Model of ProfiLux controller advice

[jameshongth]

Hi all,

I'm totally new to the ProfiLux Aquatic controller so kindly helps me to figure out which model would fit to my needs.

Due to tight budget, I just need simple controller that can provides Multi-timer, sunrise and sunset, and several 1-10v feature for my LED lighting.

Please kindly advice.

Thanks.

Hi

if you just want unexpandable control with temp, multi timers, 1-10V and tunze control and not pH then i suggest the ProfiLux II light

if you wish for the ability to expand but are on a limited budget then i suggest

The economy pack

Or one step up

After go through all the 3 URL, I think GHL Profilux II Light is what I wanted. It's simple and within my budget.

Before purchasing it, I would like to learn more about the specification and features so please kindly advice where can I download the manual from.

Thanks in advance.

Hi

The light II uses the same firmware and software frame as the larger controllers the downloadable manual is covered under the Plus II manual.

Hi,

Beside the firmware and software frame, I need to know the dimension of the unit and how many 1-10v outputs do the unit come with?

I need at least 2x 1-10v output port.

Hi

there are 2 ports, each port can be split using the splitter cable making total of 4 ports.

Size - will have to go measure it.

4 ports can be controlled individually or only 2 of them after using splitter cable?

Sorry for asking so many questions :bounce3::bounce3:.

4 individually unless using the simu stocks or spots as they use two channels

Hi,

One last question...

I have one Meanwell Power supply with dimming function for my diy LED lighting.
Can I connect the ProfiLux's 1-10v output port directly to meanwell power supply's dimming control pin? or I need to have the Lf-abox or EVG-AP in between?

Thanks.

you will need one of the connection boxes as you mention

Hi,

I'm idiot to electronic and electric equipments.

Please kindly enlighten me why can't I just connect it directly since ProfiLux has the 1-10v output port :lolspin:?
