FAQs
What does the LMA-11 do and when do I need it?
The LMA-11 is required when you want to automate dimming or scheduling on a grow light that uses a P ballast. P ballasts accept an analog 0–10V control signal, but TrolMaster controllers output a digital signal. The LMA-11 converts that digital signal to the analog format the ballast understands.
What is a P ballast and which lights use one?
A P ballast is a programmable electronic ballast used in HID and some LED grow lights that supports external dimming via an analog signal. If your ballast has a dimming port or external control input, it likely requires an adapter like the LMA-11 to integrate with TrolMaster.
Is the LMA-11 compatible with LED grow lights?
The LMA-11 is designed specifically for grow lights using the P ballast analog protocol. For specific LED fixtures, TrolMaster offers other adapters like the TrolMaster LMA-T for ThinkGrow LEDs.
How does the LMA-11 connect to my controller?
The adapter sits between the controller and the ballast. The controller-side uses a standard RJ12 cable, while the fixture-side uses the specific cable for your ballast's dimming port.
How do I know the LMA-11 is working correctly?
The LMA-11 features a built-in LED status indicator that illuminates when the adapter is active and the signal path is live, allowing for quick visual confirmation during setup.
