The Pearl Control System can control supplement lighting to help the crop to reach a particular total accumulated light for each day (e.g. DLI of 12 Moles/m2). We can either control a pilot relay to trigger power contactor to turn a lighting system on, or control a 0-10V signal to drive a dimmable lighting system on. Typically a PAR light sensor at the plant level below the lights is used. However, it is possible to do this with a light sensor placed above the lights (e.g. the weather station light sensor).
For detailed instructions and important information on the Pearl Control System, please refer to the attached manual. It contains everything you'll need to get started and use the control system effectively. Edit: Version 1.17.18 Manual Attached.
