INSTALLATION PROCEDURES GROWMASTER SERIES OF CONTROLLERS PANEL MOUNTING Mount the control panel in an accessible location. Make sure that the location is free of vibration and in close proximity to the devices being controlled. Always consider voltage drop of electrical current when locating the control panel. Securely mount the panel. SWITCHING CONTACTORS AND RELAYS The control panel will operate the greenhouse equipment via load contactors and load relays.
WIRING METHODS Always use stranded wire when connecting cables or conductors to the actual circuit board of the control panel. This will allow flexibility. Use no smaller than #18 gauge stranded wire for all outputs. Use no smaller than the recommended wire size of stranded cable for inputs, generally #22 gauge. SENSOR CONDUCTORS: Route sensor conductors separately from control conductors. This is very important so as to reduce electrical interference.
GROWMASTER PROCOM OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS PROCOM SERIES The PROCOM Series is a completely programmable greenhouse computer system. Any output may be assigned to any input or function. The PROCOM is set up by Micro Grow Greenhouse Systems, Inc. and preprogrammed for the individual requirements of the control system in use. PROGRAMMING LIGHTS RUN - Indicates that the system is in the running mode. SET PROGRAM-All temperatures, humidity levels, and other information are set here.
PROGRAMMING SWITCHES There are three main programming switches located on the Growmaster front panel. These are: RUN-SET SWITCH RUN-Puts the control in the RUN mode. SET-Puts the control in the SET mode in order to set all functions as outlined on the programming lights. PRIOR-NEXT SWITCH PRIOR-Advances to the prior item in the menu. NEXT-Advances to the next item in the menu. VALUE UP-VALUE DOWN SWITCH VALUE UP-Increases the value in the display. VALUE DOWN-Decreases the value in the display.
RUN REPORTS The RUN REPORTS mode allows the grower to run selected reports on the sensor history. 1. Enter the RUN REPORTS mode. 2. Use the PRIOR-NEXT switch to advance to the desired report. 3. Continue to use the PRIOR-NEXT switch to advance and view reports. Display Report (Inside) Select the desired report for display. CALIBRATE The CALIBRATE mode is used in order to calibrate all of the sensor readings.
GROWMASTER PROCOM SET UP SET SYSTEM The SET SYSTEM mode is used to set the system clock and date, manually view the system's sunrise and sunset times, adjust the system photocell, and to set the custom identification that will appear on the display during the run mode. Also, this mode is used to determine the times of day, either by sunrise, sunset, clock, or a combination of means, by which the four separate settings will apply. The four settings are listed as DAY, MIDDAY, EVENING, and NIGHT.
Remote ID Code: (0) Not applicable if not using the GROWLINK program. Set the ID code here for the Growlink remote PC program available from Micro Grow Greenhouse Systems Inc. Every ID code must be different for each Procom. Link Air 1 To Output (1) Select the output that the Air Circulation output will be linked to. You may select any stage of operation; even a vent or shade position may be selected.
SET COOLING The SET COOLING mode will be used to set the desired cooling stage temperature separations and differentials. The internal time delays that will prevent rapid cycling are also set here. Also, this mode is used to determine if any of the cooling stages will be activated during the dehumidify functions of the system. You may choose either the immediate dehumidify function, or the delayed dehumidify function.
The Solar Adjustment feature allows the grower to adjust the cooling temperature setpoint up or down depending on how intense the solar level is. The solar level is monitore4d by the K-Lux sensor if used. The solar level can also be monitored by a PAR or Pyranometer sensor if connected to the Procom. Setpoint Ramp (30) Minutes/Deg This is the ramp time of the heating system. Enter the desired time that it will take the system to implement a change in the heating setting.
SET HEATING The SET HEATING mode will be used to set the desired Heating stage temperature separations and differentials. The internal time delays that will prevent rapid cycling are also set here. Also, this mode is used to determine if any of the Heating stages will be activated during the dehumidify functions of the system. You may choose either the immediate dehumidify function, or the delayed dehumidify function.

Setpoint Ramp (30) Minutes/Deg This is the ramp time of the heating system. Enter the desired time that it will take the system to implement a change in the heating setting.
SET VENTILATION The SET VENTILATION mode is used to set the number of desired stages of the vent openings, the desired position of each stage, the actual total opening time for the vent itself, and to let the system know if there is a safety time delay in the vent control panel being used. The programming also allows the vent to be linked to a cooling stage or to override input if desired. The dehumidify functions of the vent, both immediate and timed, are programmed here.
Link Vent 1 to Override Inp (NO) Use this setting if any override inputs are in use. Override inputs can come from the use of a Weather Station, or other external device. Mx Vent Pos on Override 1 (CL) If a link is made to override input, the system will then ask what the maximum vent position should be during that override input period. Vent 1 Stg (1) On Immed Dehum Vent 1 Stg (1) On Delay Dehum Set the desired stages of operation here that will be activated by the dehumidify functions.
SET SHADING The SET SHADING mode will determine the total number of shade opening stages, the system timing for the shade system, the solar level differential, and a maximum closed position for the shade system. The actual total opening time for the shade system itself is entered here, and information as to a safety delay that may be present in the actual shade control panel being used is also entered here. The heat retention feature of the shade system can be programmed in this mode.
Go to (0) % if (Mode) = (Eve) Enter the percent of the close position that you want the shade system to go to during heat retention. Also, select the mode of operation desired to initiate the heating retention program. And (Air Temp 1) >= 80 Select the sensor, and the setting to be used (if any) to also activate the shade system for heat retention. You may also choose to ignore any sensors if you like.
SET FOGGING The SET FOGGING mode is used to set the temperature and humidity differentials and the system timing for the fogging output. The grower can also select if the fogging system should be maintained on or pulsed in this mode. 1. Enter the SET FOGGING mode. 2. Use the PRIOR-NEXT switch to advance to the desired item to set. 3.
