TrolMaster Lighting Control Adapter D (LMA-12) | Hydro-X Control for Dimlux

Inside the TrolMaster Lighting Control Adapter D The LMA-12 is the Hydro-X lighting module built for Dimlux D-type ballasts. Its whole job is translation between two systems. The controller speaks in digital commands, Dimlux ballasts dim on an analog control signal, and the adapter converts one into the other. A single RJ12 cable links it to the Hydro-X, and no separate power supply is needed. An LED on the case comes on when the adapter is powered and the signal path is live. Input is 12 V, and the module draws no more than 0.2 A. It is rated for 32 to 122 °F at humidity of 90 percent or less. The retail package is 156 by 83 by 30 mm, roughly 6.1 by 3.3 by 1.2 in, and weighs 1.74 oz. CE and ETL registration are listed for it, and TrolMaster covers it for three years. The distributor part number is TRCLMA12. The box holds the adapter alone. Getting Dimlux Ballast Control Right the First Time Dimlux ballast control from the Hydro-X pays off in rooms where the lights are the biggest heat source. The controller can bring the ballasts up slowly at dawn, hold a power ceiling through the day and cut back if the room overheats. Before wiring, confirm each ballast is a Dimlux model with external low-volt control. Fixtures with two dimmer knobs that drive two lamps on their own do not respond to the Hydro-X. Follow the cut sheet for the cable path between the adapter and the ballast control port. Leave enough slack so a ballast can be pulled for service without unplugging the line. Use the LED as the first check when a light ignores a schedule. If it is dark, reseat the RJ12 plug at both ends before changing any settings. Give the light channel a clear name on the controller, such as the room or row. LED fixtures and other ballast brands use their own adapters in the TrolMaster range.
