Separate Control for Two Parts of the GardenThe Light Symphony 2 Channel Lighting Controller, model LS30500LCM, lets you operate two garden lighting circuits independently. It is a practical starting point when the scheme has two clear jobs, such as illuminating a terrace and highlighting the planting beyond it.Keeping those circuits separate gives you a choice over the atmosphere. You can leave a route illuminated without lighting the entire garden, or bring both areas together when you have guests. A Controller That Can Grow With the SchemeThe IP66 enclosure is designed for outdoor use, housing the switching and dimming equipment in one place. Additional Light Symphony controllers can be incorporated as the project expands, so a two circuit starting point does not limit the eventual size of the system.This listing is for the controller. If you also need a handheld control, the 2 Channel Starter Kit combines a controller with a key fob. How It WorksThe controller receives radio commands from compatible Light Symphony transmitters and operates the wired circuits connected to it. The supply and lighting wiring still need professional installation; the wireless connection carries the operating commands.Both outputs can be configured for switching or compatible dimming. Light Symphony's current product specification rates the outputs at 500W each. Confirm the rating on the supplied unit and the connected load before installation, particularly when matching an older installation.The controller supports 29 memory settings and a master on and off function for individual, grouped or scene control. Choose a Control That Fits Your RoutineUse a compatible key fob or wall switch for familiar physical control. The Smart Timer adds app operation and supported voice control, as well as automatic schedules.A dimming setting requires compatible lamps and drivers. A circuit containing non-dimmable equipment should use the appropriate switched mode, rather than assuming every connected light can be faded. Where It Works BestTwo channels suit a patio and border, a driveway and entrance, or two planting areas you want to view independently from the house. The important decision is which lights should always operate together.For four separately controlled circuits from one enclosure, consider the 4 Channel Lighting Controller. Plan the circuit grouping around the garden's use, rather than simply the number of fittings.Good to Know Two outputs with switching or compatible dimming. Current manufacturer specification: 500W per output. IP66 outdoor enclosure. Wireless operating range depends on the transmitter and site conditions. Moonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician. One year warranty. For change of mind returns, see our returns policy before installation. Separate terms apply to trade orders. Questions People AskIs the LS30500LCM rated at 500W or 1000W per channel?Use 500W per output as the current Light Symphony specification. Older paperwork may differ, so the supplied unit's label and instructions should guide the installation.Does this controller include a key fob?No. This listing is for the controller only. Choose the 2 Channel Starter Kit if you also need the key fob.Can one circuit operate without the other?Yes. The controller has two separately controllable outputs, so each connected circuit can be operated independently.Can I add phone control later?Yes, a compatible Light Symphony Smart Timer can be added at any time to bring app operation into the wider Light Symphony system.
