Parts needed for a complete Fluence Wireless Flex Dimming (WFD) setup:

• SHYFT Light Scheduler – or other 0-10v dimming controller that can provide DC power – see below
• Wireless Flex Dimming Adapter for SHYFT (WFDM-SHYFT-ADPT) – unless a different 0-10v controller is being used
• Wireless Flex 0-10V Adapter (WFDM-10539-01) – think of this as the transmitter – (1) or (2) depending on how many zones you want to control
• Wireless Flex Dimming Receiver – either M12 (WFDM-10538-1) or M16 (WFDM-10537-1) depending on which connector your fixture’s power supply uses – you’ll need (1) for each fixture you want to control
• Wireless Flex Dimming Adapter for SHYFT Dust Cap (WFDM-M16-DUSTCAP) – to seal unused port on WFDM-SHYFT-ADPT when controlling only (1) zone (unless a different 0-10v controller is being used)

Although the WFD works with any 0-10v dimming controller, the dimming controller must be able to provide DC power to the WFD transmitter. At the time of this writing Trolmaster does not offer a DC out port or adapter on their controllers to provide the power needed. Most home growers will have to use the SHYFT Controller in order to control the WFD, although commercial growers may have access to control systems that can provide the necessary DC output. 

Features and Benefits

• Control up to 300 light fixtures wirelessly per zone with SHYFT Light Scheduler versus the wired 50! 1- or 2-Zone Connectivity Kits (additional Receivers sold separately)
• Quick hardware installation and no dimming cables to manage
• Easy setup, zone changes, and expansion via an iOS mobile app
• Reliable and secure qualified Bluetooth® mesh technology enabled by SILVAIR.
• Suitable for wet locations* and no batteries to replace
• 5-year warranty

Fluence Wireless Flex Dimming

Fluence’s Wireless Flex Dimming delivers simplicity, flexibility, and cost savings to your grow operation by replacing dimming cables to each light fixture with wireless control. Wireless Flex Dimming realizes tremendous labor costs savings from reduced installation time, eliminating potential wiring errors. Simply plug a Wireless Flex Dimming Receiver into the dimming port of each Fluence light fixture, install a Wireless Flex Dimming  0-10V Adapter, and connect the 0-10V dimming control per zone.

Wireless Flex Dimming features qualified Bluetooth mesh technology enabled by SILVAIR that is fully compatible with any 0-10V dimmer or environmental controllers. Wireless Flex Dimming is easy to configure and enables HPS to LED retrofit growers to add precise dimming control without installing new wiring – maximizing ROI.

A Wireless Dimming Solution for Commercial Cultivators

• Enable secure control of light intensity and duration at a lower total solution cost than traditional dimming cables. When combined with your climate management system or scheduler, you can maximize ROI through advanced control strategies such as:
• Precise Daily Light Integral scheduling and simulated sunrise and sunset to mimic the natural photoperiod of the plant
• Management of photoacclimation by gradually increasing light over time, ultimately maximizing plant output, and automatically dimming the lights when the natural light levels are sufficient, reducing operating costs

Easty and Quick Installation 

• Wireless Flex Dimming is faster to install than legacy wired dimming systems, resulting in tremendous labor cost savings
• Wireless Receivers simply plug into the dimming port of the light fixture power supply which enables much faster and error-free installation than wiring.
• Easy to scale up and reconfigure for future grow space expansion, up to thousands of lights per installation with the intuitive mobile app.
• Fully compatible with any 0-10V dimmer or environmental controllers on the market.
• Settings are saved in the cloud, ensuring facility setup is never lost. New lights can be added or zones reconfigured at any time.

Scalable & Reconfigurable

• With Wireless Flex Dimming, changes are made with an easy-to-use mobile app. It’s easy to scale from a single room to thousands of lights per installation. Lighting control zones can be quickly reconfigured at any time, without a costly lift or electrician.
• Wireless Flex Dimming is also ideal for the retrofitting process from legacy high-pressure sodium (HPS) systems to LEDs. A typical HPS system is limited in its dimming capabilities, unlike LED technology. However, when retrofitting HPS with LED, adding dimming cables to the existing structure can be cost prohibitive, leaving many growers with sub-optimized LED installations that cannot be dimmed. With Wireless Flex Dimming, cultivators can unlock the full benefits of precision, wire-free dimming control.
