Automate & Dim Your Grow Lights with Professional Precision
The TrolMaster LMA-14 Lighting Control Adapter allows the Hydro-X Environmental Control System to communicate with compatible 0–10V dimmable LED and HID grow lights, giving growers complete control over lighting schedules and intensity. By automating light output throughout the growing cycle, the LMA-14 helps create a more consistent environment, improving plant health, reducing stress and maximising crop yields for vegetables, herbs and commercial cultivation. It is compatible with many leading lighting brands, including Gavita, Fluence, Luxx, Grower's Choice, NanoLux, Bios, Scynce and other fixtures using a 0–10V dimming protocol.
Unlike simple timers, the LMA-14 enables gradual dimming, scheduled lighting changes and seamless integration with Hydro-X automation. Each adapter can control up to 40 HID fixtures or 24 LED fixtures, and additional adapters can be added with the SPH-1 Splitter Hub to expand your lighting system as your grow operation grows.

Why automate grow lighting?
Automated lighting provides consistent light intensity and photoperiods, reducing plant stress while encouraging stronger vegetative growth, healthier flowering and more consistent harvests. It also reduces manual adjustments and improves energy efficiency.
Is the LMA-14 easy to install?
Yes. The LMA-14 is a plug-and-play adapter that connects to your Hydro-X controller using an RJ12 cable and converts the controller's digital signal into a compatible 0–10V analogue lighting signal.
Can I expand my lighting system in the future?
Yes. If you need to control more fixtures than a single adapter supports, simply add more LMA-14 adapters using the SPH-1 Splitter Hub, allowing your lighting control system to grow alongside your facility.
Who is the LMA-14 designed for?
The LMA-14 is ideal for commercial growers, greenhouses and serious indoor growers who want precise automated control of dimmable LED or HID grow lights as part of a complete Hydro-X environmental control system.
