Aqua-X Irrigation Controller is a pioneering and innovational hydroponic
irrigation control system. This smartphone App based system can control
up to 30 outputs (24V or 110V) and monitor the pH, EC and water
temperature of nutrient. Water detectors for watering
allow the system to send alerts to user when the watering schedule failed.
With its incredible flexibility, everyone could easily automate their
irrigation systems.
The system could control pumps by 110V Control Board and solenoid
valves by 24V Control Board. With the massive control outputs, user
could manager delivery schedules for multiple nutrients, multiple rooms
and multiple zones.
A sensor board with EC/pH/Temp sensors is also available to allow user
to monitor and log all the historical data of their nutrients. When
the measured value exceeds your custom setting range, a warning
message will be sent to your smartphone.
Free smartphone App allows user to monitor and control their watering
schedules at their fingertips. Graphic interface makes multiple schedules
easy to adjust and monitor. The innovational watering confirmation
feature saves enormous loss by watering failures.

FACTS
Here are some important things to consider when using the Aqua-X
Irrigation Controller .
Each set of Aqua-X Irrigation Controller can connect up to 30 outputs
(24V or 110V) and monitor the pH value, EC value and water
temperature of nutrient.
There are two RJ12 ports for the Control Board. One is for 24V
Control Board (6 individually controlled 24V outputs for solenoid
valves), the other is 110V Control Board (6 individually controlled
110V outputs for water pumps). The maximum number of connections
to the Aqua-X is 5 pieces for either 24V Control Board or 110V
Control Board. The Program Device Station (DSP-1 from Hydro
System) is also compatible to the Aqua-X through the 110V CONTROL
port. 24V Control Board (6 outputs each), 110V Control Board (6
outputs each) and Program Device Station (1 output each) can be
used together but each Aqua-X can only control up to 30 outputs.
The Water Detector port looks identical to the Control Board port.
Make sure not to mix them up. The Water Detector port is positioned
between the Sensor Board port Micro SD slot.
pH Sensor and EC/Temp Sensor should be connected to Sensor
Board (AMP-2) and then connect the Sensor Board to the Aqua-X
with a mini-DIN cable.
A maximum distance of 1000ft / 300 meters between the NFS-1
Irrigation Controller and the devices to be controlled.
Follow all local and national electrical codes for installation
requirements.

INSTALLATION
Determine where to locate the main controller. The controller comes
with a simple to use DIN type bracket. Pull the 4 tabs outward to
release the bracket from the unit, mount the bracket to a wall or
surface, place the unit back on the bracket and press the 4 tabs back
in to lock the unit in place.

CONNECTIONS CONTINUED...
1. Power Connection:
Connect the plug-in power supply to the power (DC) connector on
the far left.
2. Control Boards (24V or 110V) Connection
Connect the 24V Control Board to the Aqua-X with a RJ12 cable
going from the 24V CONTROL socket to the first 24V Control Board
to be connected. Plug the 24V Control Board to the wall outlet for
power supply. Press "Addressing" button, the Aqua-X Controller will
assign an address to the connected Control Board in sequence. Use
another RJ12 cable to connect to the second 24V Control Board. Repeat
this process until all 24V Control Boards (up to 5pcs for exclusive use)
have been connected to the Aqua-X Controller.
The connection of 110V Control Boards is similar to above processes
but through the 110V CONTROL port.
3. Program Device Station Connection:
The connection of Program Device Station is similar to the 110V
Control Board. The 110V Control Board and Program Device Station
can be chained together with T-Splitter through the 110V CONTROL
socket.
4. Water Detectors Connection:
Connect the Water Detector to the Aqua-X with a RJ12 cable going
from the Water Detector socket to the first Water Detector to be
connected. Use the

you need to select 24V or 110V and one of six outputs to be assigned
with the Water Detector. When the output has been successfully
assigned, the Water Detector will send alarm message to your Smartphone
one minute later when it detects no water on the reservoirs of the
