Autopilot PX2 Advanced Lighting Controller

The Autopilot PX2 Advanced Lighting Controller
(APDPX2) provides precision photoperiod control of up
to 512 fixtures in two independently controlled zones, all
from one centralized location. Designed to work with
any controllable Phantom or Core HID fixtures, as well as
PHOTOBIO LED fixtures, the PX2 can control 512 digital
HID fixtures (256 per zone), or 100 analog LED fixtures (50
per zone).

The PX2 offers the flexibility to operate both
zones analog or digital, or one zone analog and the
other digital. With this versatile, dual-zone configuration,
growers can:
• Optimize spectral treatments by checker boarding
lighting technologies within the same environment
(e.g., HPS with CMH, LED with CMH)
• Save power by checker boarding identical fixtures
while reducing output to one of the zones during
the light cycle within the same environment
• Alternate rows and zones within the same environment
• Enhance uniformity by independent control over
perimeter versus interior of the environment

Features

The PX2 provides independent control of the following features in
each of its dual zones:
• Photoperiod timing to control light and dark cycles
• Photosynthetic photon flux control to precisely schedule
the PPF being emitted from fixtures during the light cycle
(wattage or percentage)
• Auto-dimming when temperature exceeds set points
• Emergency auto-shutdown of lights upon user-defined overtemperature
events
• Configurable restrike delay times to eliminate lampdamaging
hot starts
• Sunrise/sunset simulation settings to provide a gradual rampup
and down at both ends of your photoperiod
• Built-in battery backup
• Voltage: 100–240V 50/60Hz 0.3 Amps

Two dedicated temperature sensors, one for each zone

These sensors provide real-time data for automated temperaturebased
dimming, as well as a high temperature shutdown feature that
protects your garden.

The PX2 eliminates inrush current and replaces
traditional lighting contactors, reducing infrastructure investment.

Updated locking signal and data cables

All cables are shielded from electromagnetic interference to ensure
uncompromising signal reliability and communication.
