Hydro-X Group Control Lighting Adaptor (LMA-G)

Where the TrolMaster Group Control Lighting Adaptor Fits

The LMA-G is a group addressing module for ThinkGrow single-bar LED fixtures run from a TrolMaster Hydro-X Pro. TrolMaster built it for the ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus. It connects inline with an LMA-T lighting control adapter, and that pairing switches on the group control function. Each LMA-G handles one group of lights, and each group needs its own LMA-G. Up to 10 groups can be created on the system, and every group keeps individual settings. A small LCD on the module shows the group address while it is being set. The box holds the adaptor and a 12 ft ECS-9 cable with an RJ12 plug on one end and a 4-pin connector on the other. The module runs on 12 V and draws no more than 0.1 A. It is rated for 32 to 122 °F at humidity of 90 percent or less. The retail package measures 156 by 83 by 30 mm and weighs 2.12 oz. The distributor part number is TRCLMAG, and TrolMaster covers the module for three years.

Planning ThinkGrow Model-I Group Control Across a Room

ThinkGrow Model-I group control pays off when different parts of a room need different light. A mother bench, a row of fresh transplants and a flowering block rarely want the same intensity or the same schedule. Sketch the groups on paper before mounting anything. Give each group a name that matches a bench or a row, then assign the matching address on the LCD. Clear labels on every module save time when a light misbehaves. Mount each LMA-G where its cable reaches the group without being stretched across a walkway. Keep the modules off the floor and clear of irrigation lines, since the housing is built for a dry indoor space. Bring the groups up one at a time and confirm each responds before adding the next. After that, ramp schedules and dimming levels can differ between groups from the Hydro-X Pro. A group of young plants can sit lower while the bench beside it runs full output. The module is made for ThinkGrow Model-I and Model-I Plus bars, so other fixture brands need a different adapter. It also relies on the LMA-T and the controller to do its work.
