The Matrix MC5 Lighting Controller is a dedicated advanced lighting controller purpose-built for the complete Matrix LED and Hybrid lineup. Designed for growers who want full spectrum precision without third-party software or complex setup, the MC5 delivers reliable, hands-on control that simply works.
The MC5 controller allows growers to independently control the three lighting channels on the Matrix Hybrid 1000W:
- Main Spectrum – Primary red and white lighting used for the core photoperiod.
- Far Red (FR) – Used for advanced spectrum control and plant signalling.
- HPS Channel – Supplemental spectrum designed to replicate traditional HPS characteristics.
This separation allows growers to fine-tune spectrum output and intensity depending on plant stage, canopy structure, and cultivation strategy.
Two Independent Lighting Channels to allow flexible layout design and scalable system growth. Each channel supports:
- Up to 80 fixtures via 0–10V
- Up to 100 fixtures via RS-485
