The Autopilot PX2 Advanced Lighting Controller 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 checkerboarding 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
Powerful features, precise and independent controls
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 over-temperature events
• Configurable restrike delay times to eliminate lamp-damaging hot starts
• Sunrise/sunset simulation settings to provide a gradual ramp-up and down at both ends of
your photoperiod
• Built-in battery backup
Two dedicated temperature sensors, one for each zone
These sensors provide real-time data for automated temperature-based 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.
