PROGRAMMING
1. LIGHTING
Pressing the light button will increase the light
intensity level in 10/30/60/100% increments,
displayed with white LED indicators. Pressing
this button at 100% intensity will cycle to 0%.
Holding the light button will shut off the lighting.
Pressing it again will return the light intensity to
its previous setting.
2. TIMER
Pressing the clock button will set the timer
in 3/6/12/18-hour increments, displayed with
orange LED indicators.
Within a 24-hour cycle, lighting will be active for
the amount of time set here (ex. 3 hours for a
3HR timer). It will deactivate for the rest of the
24-hour cycle (ex. 21 hours).
Pressing the clock button at the 18HR setting
will deactivate the timer, cycling from 3HR
onwards when pressing this button again.
3. UIS CONNECTION
Refer to the programming section of your selected
UIS controller for programming instructions.

STARTER GUIDE
GROWING SEASONS
You may use a seedling mat to get a head start
on the gardening season. Start the germination
process during late winter or spring if you live in
a colder region.
GERMINATION
Different seeds require different temperatures to
germinate. Before you begin, refer to your seed
package and the table on the seedling mat for
recommended temperature settings.
TEMPERATURE
If your seed packet does not specify a
temperature, keep the temperature between
65°F and 75°F (18-24°C).
Make sure to also keep track of ambient room
temperatures; along with your local weather,
this can also affect your germination process.

STARTER GUIDE
SOWING SEEDS
Sow 2-3 seeds per cell; not every seed will
germinate. Cover the seeds completely with
your grow media. Set the humidity dome over
the tray. Place the seed tray on the seedling mat
and turn it on to begin heating.
HUMIDITY
Closing the vents of the humidity dome will
increase the humidity of the environment. To
accelerate the environmental humidity build-up,
pair the humidity dome with a seedling mat.
HUMIDITY DOME AND SEEDLING MAT
22
WATERING
Water your seed tray’s starter mix or pellets,
which will appear dark brown. Dry off any
excess water.
Place the humidity dome on the seed tray and
close all air vents. Lightly water your seeds
whenever the mix/pellets appear light brown.
Once your seeds begin to germinate, open an
air vent on the humidity dome. When about half
of your tray yields seedlings, open two of the air
vents on the humidity dome.

The charts below offer suggested mounting heights and light intensities for each stage in the
growing process. These factors will vary based on the plant you are growing. Height refers to the
minimum recommended distance from the canopy (tip of the plant) to the light.

SETTING ACTIVE LIGHTING TIMERS
The included controller can set timers in 3/6/12/18-hour increments.
Use either the 3HR or the 6HR timer to extend your plant's daily exposure to light, in conjunction
with natural sunlight, or when growing plants that don't require extended exposure to lighting.
Use either the 12HR or the 18HR timer to complement common light cycles used to grow high yield
plants indoors. This will also allow for your lighting to sync with your grow set-up's existing lighting,
so that they may activate at the same time.

CONNECTING TO UIS
TM
AN INTERCONNECTED GROW SETUP
The Universal Infinity System (UIS) is a series of controllers and devices that come together
to create a fully automated system. UIS enables our controllers to simultaneously connect with
various grow equipment such as inline fans, clip-on fans, and grow lights. Advance UIS controllers
can provide each connected UIS device with their own automated programming like temperature,
humidity, cycles, schedules, and dynamic levels, while also pairing with the AC Infinity app.
27
CONNECTING TO UIS
TM
IONBEAM LED grow lights can connect
with select smart controllers as part of an
integrated system using the included UIS
extension cord.
CONNECTING TO UIS CONTROLLERS
Use the included UIS M-M extension cord to
connect the LED light bar(s) to your selected
UIS controller via the light controller's side port.
Your selected UIS controller will override all of the light controller's onboard settings when
connected in this manner.
