Anyone??

Due it has a 0-10V input, it should be no problem to connect it to a L-port of the Profilux.
However, there is no ready-made cable for that
Thanks Gunther!Quote:

Straight to an L-port.
You may use a splitter in between to split the two channels of an L-port and/or use a EVG-AP-2F-HIC to also switch on/off the power.
Thanks!

Does anyone have pictures on how it should be connected and when it works? I have a Profilux II, tried to make a connection with a EVG-AP-2F-HIC to an L port. No light at all unfortunately.
Used a 3.5mm jack plug with to wires, + and - on the EVG.
Thanks!
Thanks, but is it also possible to only use the + and - from the Jack plug with the profilux steering cable?
The driver of the Kessil is in a sealed box and I prefer not to take these original parts apart.
Somebody?
I have the blue channel working by using the + and - of the Jack plug. Didn't used the ground. Can't get that other channel working?

Do I need to use the ground of the jack cable to get this thing going?
Not shure what you are doing there, but if you have connected the 1-10V directly to a lamp you should stop that asap. This ports are control ports only. Currents of more than 20mA may destroy the port!
The Kessil has a 1-10V input.
Got it working now.
I'm currently thinking about putting an a360 over my cube. Can you tell me how you got it all working in the end?
Thanks
Matt
I'm looking at putting a kessil360 on my tank and controlling it with a PIII. I'm looking for a clean instillation. Can anyone who is running kessils do a quick 'how to' and post a couple of pics of the setup?
Really like the idea is a kessil run by a Profilux but before I commit I'd like to make sure it can be done. Will the PIII be able to do cloud simulation, moon, ramp up and down and colour control with the kessil?
Cheers,
Tom
Try another bump :-)Quote:

Do anyone know if GHL planning to provide an easier connection solution for the Kessil (a cable like APEX do for Kessil or GHL do for Tunze)? Feels like you see more and more of the Kessil lights (at least in Scandinavia).
You only need this: GHL PL-0067 LBF-AP Anklemmbox für 1-10V-Schnittstellen
The Kessil automatically shut off by 0%. I must set the Voltage to 1.3 V.

Tip = Intensity (off, 12-100%)
Ring = Spectrum/color
Sleeve = Ground
So translated to the PL-0067 board it should be something like:
Tip to pin 1
Sleeve to pin 2
Ring to pin 3
Sleeve to pin 4
like someone mentioned earlier can we just connect this apex cable to our profilux? also is there a function in the profilux to control the light throughout different times and intensities of the day?
Yes, you can control the Kessil via the Profilux computer. I'm using two light channels for this. One for intensity and one for color. This solution work great for me with full control of the light.
But I would not recommend using a cables that is not intended for connecting Kessil to Profilux without risking destroying your Kessil light or Profilux computer. I'm using a GHL PL-0067 LBF-AP to connect the Kessil light to the Profilux and a regular stereo head phone plug. See my description in previous post how I did.
what's GHL PL-0067 i can't seem to find any info or pictures on it? do i need EVG-AP?
oh is the PL-0067 the same product as LBF-AP?
so this is all i need? is the hole on the left side of the unit for a 3.5mm audio cable? will i need 2 of these to control each of the 2 channels of the kessil?
Yes, LBF-AP is what you would need for controlling the Kessil. A single LBF-AP supports up to 2 channels.
Yes, you need one LBF-AP and also one stereo 3.5 plug. I used this one (http://www.clasohlson.com/uk/Exibel-...le/Pr327701000), but I'm sure you can find similar in a lot of different electronic stores. I'm also sure you can buy the original cable from Kessil, but it is much more expensive (you still need to cut it).
1. Cut of the cable to desired length (remove the RCA connectors)
2. Make sure you know what part of the plug is connected to which cable (you should have 4 cables when you remove the RCA connectors)
3. Screw them on the the board (in the order below)
Tip to pin 1
Sleeve to pin 2
Ring to pin 3
Sleeve to pin 4
Attachment 8408
With the above items you will be able to control both color and intensity.
thanks though i'm not quite understanding the picture you showed just looks like one 3.5mm connection. i understand to cut the RCA end connectors (Red/White) but i'm confused how you used the one 3.5mm into 4 different connection?
When you have cut of the connectors you will have 4 wires. 2 from the white and 2 from the red RCA connector. Figure out witch one is running from the tip of the 3.5mm plug and connect it to pin 1 in the LBF-AP adapter. Then figure out witch one is running from the ring of the 3.5mm plug and connect it to pin 3 on the LBF-AP adapter. The two that you are left with should be running from the sleeve of the 3.5 plug and connect them to pin 2/4 of the LBF-AP adapter.
The picture is just an illustration of what part of the plug is the tip, ring and sleeve.
You can use an electrometer or a battery and a small diod to figure out what wire is connected to what part of the 3.5 plug (that's at least how I did it :-)).
so I'm guessing the first 2 wires are live and the remaining 2 are dead wires? if so how do you tell the difference from the first 2 with a battery and diode does it matter which is + and - in pin 1?
I think the first two are + and the second two are -. I think you need to connect them in correct order since it's DC curret. I'm not sure about this, but the description above is how I solved it.Quote:

but the first 2 you described are L1/L3 which are + and - and remaining 2 wires L2/L4 are also + and -
Attachment 10498
which are the ones that light up the diode and does it matter which + order they're placed in?
