Does anyone know if you can run dimmable t5 ballast from the kessill controller. i have a controller x running my 360x's and am going to add a couple t5's. ballast is 0-10v dimming. the controller has a 2nd port for controlling the older lights thru 0-10v port. just trying to figure out if i can hook up the ballast 0-10v wires to the controller.
thanks for any help

I specifically consulted with Kessil and aquaticlife when aquaticlife built their new dimmable hybrid. On this fixture you absolutely can.

Kessil has also told me that you can control 0-10v pumps from the controller. I have tried to put a bug in kessils ear about a firmware update to the controller that will make the interface more specific to these tasks in the future.

Thanks, i did email kessil and they do not recommend any other lights then theirs, since they have not been tested. But do say it may work since they run off the 0-10v wires.
