Kessil Spectral Controller X

Description

Intuitive and Affordable Light Control
Equipped with flawless touch control and a vivid color display, the Spectral Controller X is effortless light control at the touch of your fingertips. Its straightforward approach to light control programming allows for endless customization options without the confusion. The sleek, modern design ensures a beautiful and cohesive setup that won`t disrupt the look of your aquarium.
Smart K-Link Communication
The new K-Link communication method is an upgrade of the easily plug & play 0-10V, allowing users to network multiple A360X, A500X, or APP9X together(up to 32 fixtures per chain) and set individual groups to run their own programs. K-Link is also a two-way communication, meaning the Spectral Controller X can detect the number of lights in the network, the status of the lights, etc.
One Controller, Two Ports - Backward Compatible
Each controller is equipped with one K-Link port and one 0-10V output port. The K-Link port allows users to connect to the new Kessil fixtures (A360X, A500X, and AP9X), while the 0-10V port is for Kessil’s 0-10V light fixtures.

Product Information
Overview
Equipped with flawless touch control and a vivid color display, the Spectral Controller offers effortless light control at the touch of your fingertips. Its straightforward approach to light control programming allows for endless customization options without the confusion. The sleek, modern design ensures a beautiful and cohesive setup that won`t disrupt the look of your aquarium.
Power to the Kessil Spectral Controller X can be provided in one of two ways.
Plug the provided K-Link cable male to the K-Link female on the Spectral Controller X. Then plug the other male end of the K-Link cable to the A360X, A500X, or AP9X K-Link female port. Plug the fixture`s power supply and cable to an AC wall outlet. It is that simple! The K-Link Cable will provide both data and power from the light to the Spectral Controller X.
If you have an older generation Kessil light (Kessil A80, A160, A360, H160), you can still use the Spectral Controller X with a few adaptations. You will need a Micro USB cable (included), as well as the
Kessil 90 Degree Link Cable
(sold separately).
