Enstalasyon ak Enstalasyon
The iHub-4AC Power Strip is designed as an add-on module for the MARS HYDRO iControl system. It requires an iControl controller to operate.
Connecting to iControl
- Ensure your MARS HYDRO iControl controller is powered off.
- Connect one end of the provided RJ12 cord to an available RJ12 port on your iControl controller.
- Connect the other end of the RJ12 cord to the 'CH1' or 'CH2' port on the iHub-4AC Power Strip. If connecting multiple iHub-4AC units, use the RJ12 T-Shape Splitter to daisy-chain them.
- Plug the iHub-4AC Power Strip into a standard AC power outlet.
- Power on your iControl controller. The iHub-4AC should be recognized by the iControl system.

Daisy-Chaining Multiple Units
For larger grow operations, up to 40 iHub-4AC units can be daisy-chained together. Use the RJ12 T-Shape Splitter to connect multiple iHub-4AC units to a single RJ12 port on your iControl controller, or connect them in series.

Enstriksyon Operasyon
The iHub-4AC Power Strip's four outlets can be individually controlled and programmed via the MARS HYDRO iControl controller and its associated mobile application.
4 Smart Outlet Modes
Each outlet on the iHub-4AC offers four programmable control modes:
- Manyèl: Turn the outlet ON or OFF directly.
- Revèy: Schedule specific ON/OFF times for the connected device.
- Sik: Set repeating ON/OFF intervals.
- Anviwònman: Automate control based on environmental sensor data (Temperature, Humidity, CO₂).

Image: A visual guide to the four smart outlet modes (Manual, Timer, Cycle, Environment) available through the iControl app for customizing each outlet's function.
Environment Mode for Smart Automation
Utilize the Environment Mode to enable intelligent automation. This mode allows each outlet to respond to real-time sensor data from your iControl system. You can assign dynamic control to devices such as humidifiers, dehumidifiers, or exhaust fans based on:
- Tanperati
- Imidite
- CO₂ levels

Smart Control for Adlite Bars
The iHub-4AC can also facilitate smart control for MARS HYDRO Adlite Bars, allowing independent scheduling of red, blue, UV, and IR bars to optimize light spectrum for different growth stages.
