Example Configuration
Get rid of all the timers, triplets and messy cables hanging in your grow room.
With this configuration you get precise control of your lamps, configuring the growing days from 18h/6h to 12h/12h in one click, allowing even to make an 8h/8h day if you wish so.
The temperature and humidity probe enables the control of the ventilation, lowering the consumption for this device while optimizing the climate in your grow.
Connecting two water pumps to PowerBot allows the control of irrigation (hydroponics and soil), from the basic weekday's selection (one hour in the morning every other day) to the enhanced recurrent schedule (5m every hour). The GroLab™ software allows the creation of schedules to feed any kind of grow type with extreme precision.
This configuration easily manages one area with two distinct growing systems inside, ensuring, light, climate and proper watering for each growing system independently.
PowerBot supports a wide variety of sensors, like smoke/motion detectors that can be used to create security procedures, or water level sensors to keep you updated about the tank level. Also, it even supports a flood detector that makes GroLab™ capable of ensuring that no leaks or floods will damage your crops, improving the overall security of your growing area.
GroLab™ offers data-logging and data-storing, these features ensure that all the information about sensors/devices is collected and stored over time! Thanks to these and to the data-visualization features, it is possible to do a detailed analysis of the life cycle of your plants, enabling you to maximize their growth and efficiency!
This is a scheme designed to show some of the GroLab™ StarterKit possibilities, nevertheless, you can rearrange the devices, and even replace them, with any other device you may find useful, lights, fog makers, fans, dehumidifiers etc. If you need more sensors or outputs, or just to control another growing area, you just need to add extra modules to this kit (GroNode supports up to 4 modules of each type), and expand your control with new features.
