The TrolMaster ECS-2 RJ12 to 3.5mm Jack Extension Cable Set allows growers to connect compatible LED drivers directly to the Hydro-X lighting control system. In indoor growing environments, integrating lighting with an environmental controller helps maintain consistent light intensity and scheduling, which supports stable plant growth from vegetative growth through to the flowering stage.
The ECS-2 is designed for LED fixtures that use pigtail wiring or loose driver connections. The included terminal block allows the driver’s control wires to be easily connected to the TrolMaster system, enabling centralised lighting control inside a grow tent or grow room. Once connected through the Hydro-X lighting control adapter, growers can automate lighting schedules and dimming levels, ensuring plants receive consistent PPFD for efficient photosynthesis and improved yield.
Key Benefits
• Connects LED drivers with pigtail wiring to the Hydro-X lighting control system
• Compatible with many LED fixtures using 0–10V dimming drivers
• Allows centralised control of lighting schedules and intensity
• Supports daisy-chain wiring for controlling multiple grow lights
• Helps maintain stable lighting conditions across the canopy
• Simple installation using terminal block connectors
How It Solves Grow Problems
In many indoor growing setups, LED drivers with loose wire control leads cannot easily connect to a lighting controller. This can make it difficult to automate lighting intensity or synchronise lighting schedules with environmental controls.
The ECS-2 solves this by providing a simple interface between the LED driver and the Hydro-X controller. The terminal block connector allows the driver’s control wires to be securely attached, while the RJ12 connection links the lighting system to the Hydro-X control network.
By connecting multiple lights in a daisy-chain configuration, growers can manage the entire lighting system from a single controller. This ensures consistent light levels across the grow room, supporting balanced plant growth, improved plant health and stronger flowering yields.
