Dimmable ballasts will use two ports as they are dual mode and can be dimmed independantly, however you can wire them together.

LED sticks and spots use two ports as they are dual channel.

Tunze use one port each.

Do not mix and match tunze with dimmable always have running on sperate ports i.e dimmable on L1L2 and Tunze on L3L4

if you are out of ports you can use the PLM-4L card.

Thanks for your help quick replys as always! I was having alot of problems getting trying to get it to work. I am disapointed that I cant do this with my current configuration, I'll look into the expansion card.

Default Mounting Bracket for Profilux Controller

I have a Profilux II Plus controller and I want to mount it on a wall. At one time I understood that Profilux was going to make one -then they decided against it. If anyone else has mounted it on a wall, can they tell me how they did it?

Thanks in advance,
Gord.

Hi Gordon

I have seen a small shelf made with L brackets. The shelving material pulled forward about an inch and a half from the wall for plugs and connection cords to come off the back of the ProfLux and fall toward the floor. I have installed mine on top of a small cabinet that is pulled away from the wall about the same distance as the shelf described above.

Default Profilux mounting

Hey Tom,

Thanks for you reply. That sounds like a great solution for mounting horizontally. I am trying to mount mine with the bottom flat against the wall so that the display is pointing up toward the ceiling and the cords are pointing down toward the ground. Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Gord.
