Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your grow light.
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the light fixture with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the light is unplugged before cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Heat Management: The passive cooling LED driver is designed to dissipate heat efficiently. Ensure adequate airflow around the driver, especially if mounted within the grow space.
- Water Resistance: The fixture has an IP65 rating, indicating protection against dust and low-pressure water jets. While resistant, avoid direct exposure to high-pressure water or submersion.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your IONFRAME EVO6 grow light, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps.
- Light Not Turning On:
- Check if the power cord is securely plugged into both the LED driver and the electrical outlet.
- Verify that the LED driver is correctly connected to the light fixture and the controller.
- Ensure the electrical outlet is functional by testing it with another device.
- Controller Not Responding:
- Confirm the controller cable is firmly connected to the LED driver.
- If using the app, ensure your device has a stable internet connection and the light is properly paired.
- Uneven Light Distribution:
- Verify the light is hung level and centered over your grow area.
- Adjust the hanging height to optimize light spread for your specific coverage area. Refer to the specifications for recommended coverage.
