Know before you buy
Yes, the controller is compatible with LED, CMH, and HPS fixtures. You can mix these light types across your zones, provided they are compatible with the controller's signal requirements.
The Touch+ can manage up to 120 fixtures in total. It supports two independent zones, allowing for 60 fixtures per zone.
No, the ILUMINAR Touch+ does not feature a battery backup. If power is lost, you will need to ensure your settings are saved or manually reset the schedule once power is restored.
Dual-zone control allows you to run two separate grow environments on different schedules from a single device. This is ideal if you are managing a vegetative room and a flowering room simultaneously.
No, the Touch+ is a standalone unit. It does not offer Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity, meaning all programming must be done directly on the device's touchscreen.
The controller monitors your lighting environment and is designed to automatically dim or shut off lights if temperatures exceed your pre-set safety thresholds, helping to prevent heat stress and equipment damage.
