Descripción
With Gavita Master controllers, you have lighting control at your fingertips! The Master Controller Gen 2 models include the EL1 and EL2. The EL2 controller can be expanded using the Gavita Booster B200 to control up to 1200 horticultural lighting fixtures. On its own, the EL2 has two control channels and can control 1000 repeater bus fixtures and 80 single bus fixtures. The EL1 has half of that standard capacity with one control channel.
Gen 2 Gavita Master Controller Features
- Central control for large rooms with e-series fixtures
- Improved and expanded functionality
- Non-volatile memory
- Event logging
- Independent sunrise and sunset settings
- Independent light cycles on the EL2
The Master Controllers are extremely easy to set up. The two-line green OLED display is sharp and easy to read, even in a high light intensity environment, and all menu items are in plain text. The 4-button control of the menu system is intuitive. A special fifth button is added to set the output of your fixtures directly.
Red and blue LEDs show you the output status of your controller ports and give you a quick view of any errors. The wiring system is plug-and-play with all the cables you need already included with each e-series fixture. The manual describes how you can make custom cables for any length.
Different lengths of control cables are available as original Gavita accessories. Be aware that the Gen 2 Master controller comes with a 15 V power cord that differs from the 5 V power cord used with Gen 1 Master controllers.
Gen 2 improvements
Memory – All master controllers use dependable, non-volatile memory to store user settings.
Logging – All master controllers now have logging functions for high/low temperature, last auto-dim event, last shutdown event and last power loss, including the event’s date and time
Separate sunrise/sunset control – Set different periods for sunrise and sunset
Independent cycles on EL2 models – These cycles let you program two different, overlapping cycles (for example, a 12/12 on channel 1 and an 18/6 on channel 2).
Independent programmable External Contactor Modules (ECMs) – In Gen 2 EL2 controllers, now you can choose whether they switch on or off and which channel they follow. The results? Flexible integration and automation.
