• 5.1 Environmental Conditions Settings

• 5.1.1
  Day/Night Cycle Optimization: Define the time range for day and night
  periods. The day starts from the day start time and ends at the night
  start time, while night starts from the night start time and ends at the
  day start time. If both start times are set the same, the system
  defaults to 24 hours of day mode.

• 5.1.2
  Environmental Conditions Settings: Set target values for temperature,
  humidity, and CO₂ levels for both day and night, along with the deadband
  range.

• 5.1.3 Deadband
  Control: Maintain stability. For example, if the daytime temperature is
  set to 70°F with a deadband of 3°F, there is an upper and lower
  threshold. Cooling will activate at 73°F and stop once it reaches 70°F,
  while heating will activate at 67°F and stop at 70°F.

• 5.2 Local Time Settings

• Set your local time on the controller. This is necessary when setting operating times, such as for lights.

• 5.3 Multi-Language Support

• Our
  system offers multiple language options to ensure ease of use,
  including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, and Chinese.

6. How to Control LED Grow Lights (G Series/ SE Series/ SF Series)

(Note: A GGS 2-in-1 Adapter is required to control LED grow lights through the GGS Power Strip. This adapter is included in the kit.)

6.1 Manually Adjust Brightness for Precise Light Control:

• Set the brightness anywhere from 10% to 100%, giving you full control over light intensity at any time. For quick shut-off, setting the brightness to 0% will turn the lights off. Any setting between 0% and 10% automatically operates at 10% brightness.

6.2 Automate Your Lighting Schedule:

• 6.2.1 Start and End Times: Easily set specific on and off times for your lights, so your plants get consistent light cycles without manual
  adjustments.

• 6.2.2 Brightness Levels: Define the exact brightness level for each cycle, ensuring your plants receive optimal light intensity.

6.3 High-Temperature Protection for Your Plants and Equipment:

• 6.3.1
  Go Dark: Set a high-temperature threshold for dimming. When the ambient temperature reaches this threshold, the lights will automatically
  reduce brightness to 11% to prevent overheating.

• 6.3.2
  Turn Off: Set a higher temperature threshold for complete shutdown. When this threshold is reached, the lights will automatically turn off to protect your plants and equipment.

6.4 Sunrise/Sunset Simulation:

• Activate this feature to simulate natural light changes, with the brightness gradually increasing at sunrise and gradually decreasing at sunset.

Example:
If you set the light schedule from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM with brightness at 100% and a 30-minute sunrise/sunset setting, the lights will gradually increase from 0% to 100% brightness between 8:00 AM and 8:30 AM. In the evening, starting at 7:30 PM, the brightness will gradually decrease from 100% until the lights turn off completely at 8:00 PM.

7. How to Control Clip Fan, Inline Fan, and Other Devices

Notes:

• Spider Farmer App:

  • Currently, the Device section in the Spider Farmer app includes options for fans (Clip Fan) and blowers (Inline Fan), but these options are not yet functional.

  • The next-generation Clip Fans and Inline Fans with RJ12 ports will support control through this section.

• Controlling Devices via the GGS AC5 Power Strip:

  • If you already own or are considering purchasing our Clip Fan or Inline Fan, you can still control them by plugging them into the GGS AC10 Power Strip and using the Outlet section in the app to control each outlet.

  • The power strip also supports other devices, such as supplemental light bars, humidifiers, and more.

To control and automate your devices, simply plug them into the GGS AC10 Power Strip, which includes sensors that can be used for automation. The GGS AC10 Power Striphas 10 outlets, each of which can be controlled through the Spider Farmer APP (or GGS Controller), withcustomizable time and mode settings.

• Currently, for fans (Clip Fan) and blowers (Inline Fan), you can control each outlet through the Outlet section in the app.

7.1 Manual Mode vs. Auto Mode

• Manual Mode: In this mode, you can manually turn each outlet on or off in real-time, giving you instant control over your devices.

• Auto Mode:
  In Auto Mode, you can set up automated controls with time periods, time cycles, temperature control, humidity control, and CO2 control for each outlet.

7.2 Auto Mode Explained

• Time Period Mode:Set specific on/off schedules for each outlet. Choose exact times for each day of the week or create recurring daily schedules. This allows you to provide consistent light, air circulation, or other resources precisely when your plants need them.

• Time Cycle Mode:
  Set power cycles to control when your devices turn on and off throughout the day. For example, you could set a fan to run for 1 hour, turn off for another hour, and repeat the cycle as needed. This is ideal for managing airflow, lighting intervals, or other timed needs in your grow room.

• Temperature Mode:Control devices based on temperature. For example, if you plug a Clip Fan into an outlet set to Temperature Mode and specify it as a cooling device, the fan will automatically turn on when the temperature exceeds your target—keeping the environment stable without manual adjustments.

• Humidity Mode:Easily manage humidity levels. If you connect a humidifier, set the outlet to Humidity Mode, and specify it as a humidifying device, the outlet will power on to increase humidity when levels drop below your desired range. This way, you can maintain optimal humidity for your plants without constant monitoring.

• CO₂ Mode:Manage
  CO₂ levels by connecting a CO₂ device. Set the outlet to CO₂ Mode and specify whether it should add or vent CO₂. The outlet will activate
  based on your target CO₂ levels, giving you precise control over your grow room environment.

7.3 Important Note for Inline Fans with Digital Temp/Humidity Controller

• When using an Inline Fanwith a digital temperature and humidity controller, do not use the fan’s built-in sensor. Instead, use the temperature, humidity, and light sensors that come with the GGS AC10 Power Strip Kit to control your device automatically.
