1. Product Overview
The TrolMaster DSH-2 is a 240V Humidity Device Station designed to provide precise humidity control within a Hydro-X Control System. This device acts as a relay, allowing the Hydro-X system to manage external humidity-related equipment, such as humidifiers or dehumidifiers, by switching their power on or off based on programmed settings.

3. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to set up your DSH-2 Humidity Device Station:
- Power Connection: Plug the DSH-2 device into a standard 240V power outlet. Ensure the outlet is properly grounded.
- Connect to Hydro-X System: Use the provided RJ12 cable to connect the DSH-2 to an available 'Device' port on your TrolMaster Hydro-X Control System. The Hydro-X system will automatically detect the DSH-2.
- Connect Humidity Device: Plug your 240V humidifier or dehumidifier into the outlet on the DSH-2.

4. Operating Instructions
Once connected and configured with your Hydro-X Control System, the DSH-2 operates automatically based on the parameters set in the Hydro-X system. The DSH-2 acts as a switch, turning the connected humidity device on or off to maintain the desired humidity levels.
- Indicator Lights: Observe the indicator lights on the DSH-2 for operational status. Typically, a green light indicates power and proper connection.
- System Control: All humidity setpoints, differentials, and schedules are managed directly through the Hydro-X Control System interface.
5. Maintenance
The DSH-2 Humidity Device Station requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity and optimal performance:
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the exterior of the device with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
- Environment: Ensure the device is operated in a dry environment, free from excessive dust or moisture.
- Cable Integrity: Regularly inspect the RJ12 cable and power cord for any signs of damage. Replace if necessary.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your DSH-2, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
- No Power: Ensure the DSH-2 is securely plugged into a live 240V outlet. Check the circuit breaker.
- Not Detected by Hydro-X: Verify that the RJ12 cable is firmly connected to both the DSH-2 and an active 'Device' port on the Hydro-X system. Try a different RJ12 cable or port.
- Humidity Device Not Responding: Confirm that the humidity device (humidifier/dehumidifier) plugged into the DSH-2 is powered on and functioning correctly independently. Check the settings for the DSH-2 within the Hydro-X Control System.
- Incorrect Humidity Readings: This is typically related to the humidity sensor connected to the Hydro-X system, not the DSH-2 itself. Refer to your Hydro-X system manual for sensor troubleshooting.
If problems persist, contact TrolMaster customer support or your authorized dealer.
