Dual zone lighting controller for Xtrasun DE fixtures
The LT1 drives two independent zones, up to 80 fixtures per zone for 160 total, over 0-10V dimming through RJ14 ports. A color touchscreen sets the schedule, and each zone gets its own temperature and humidity sensor for temperature-based dimming. If a room spikes, auto shutdown pulls the lights to protect the canopy. Growers wire it to Xtrasun XTDEKT1 and XTDEOKT1 fixtures and mount the sensors at canopy height for accurate readings.
0-10V dimming and touchscreen scheduling in one grow light controller
Beyond on/off timing, the controller runs sunrise and sunset ramps so lights ease up and down instead of hard switching. It also has connections for external gear like dehumidifiers and air conditioning, so environment equipment can track the light cycle. One caveat: the LT1 is built for Xtrasun's 0-10V DE fixtures with RJ14 ports, not every brand's dimming standard.
