Hi
I'm new to the Profilux as they have just made it down to Australia. I was just wondering if it is possible to connect ATI Powermodule T5 light fittings that already have dimmable ballasts to the Profilux and make full use of their dimming functionality via the Profilux ? If so, what other hardware do I require and what work is required to hook it all up ? Thanks... Siiri

Hi
I will find out for you no problems, if it is compatible, then you would only need the external interface card, for 240V (Aussie voltage) there are three types. 1. this is just an interface card and requires you to have the lights on a timer as it does not switch the 1-10V completely off at 0V 2. A very handy interface that plugs into any shuko style socket that incorporates the 0V switching as well as the 1-10V interface 3. the EVG card that does it all and also can control two ballasts at one time, this is a PCB module that will require safe mounting. Either myself or matthias directly will give you an answer if your lighting is compatible Coming from the Uk I just have to add  SHAME ABOUT THE RUGBY MATE - TWICE IN 4 YEARS!!!!!! Regards Michael

Hi Michael
Any info is greatly appreciated as my Profilux supplier is new to it himself. He is working hard to find out this type of info for me but when I came across this forum I was hoping you guys could help me a little faster. Quote:

Question about the dosing pump setup.
The instructions say: "If more than one dosing pump is used Profilux tries to avoid to avoid that the pumps a activated in parallel" If I dose sodium carbonate 10 times a day and calcium chloride 5 time a day, will the dosing times be spaced as far apart as possible, or could they happen one after the other, with no interval in between?

Hi,
ProfiLux avoids to dose at the same time but it can't be guaranteed that the intervals between all dosing activities are exactly the same. But i don't think that this is a major issue.

Thanks for the response Matthias. I'll move the outlets as far apart as possible, just in case they come on too close together.

Hi guys
I'm still wondering which is the best way to connect a ATI Powermodule T5 light fittings that already have dimmable ballasts to the Profilux and make full use of their dimming functionality via the Profilux ? Micheal already gave me the options but I don't know which is the best option in my case... Thanks... Siiri

Hi
The cheapest option is to use the little interface that GHL make, this little box comes with the western lead you require to connect to the profilux, on the other side of the box are screw terminals. which feed the 1-10V interface. But the downside of this option is that it will not turn you lights completely off at 0V, this is caled 0V switching. To over come this you will need to have the lights on a timer that switch the power off at the same time as the ProfiLux dims the lights to the minmum setting. But the best option is the EVG-AP card, this does all the above in one card, it has relays on it that sense the 0 Volt and then switches the power off, so with this card the 1-10V wires through it interfacing the ProfiLux with the ballasts but also acts as you 0V switching devise, eliminating the need for external timers
