Troubleshooting Tips

IftheSaturn™2isnotperformingasexpected,trythefollowing:

a.Conrmthatyourpowerinputsourceisactivebyusingavoltagetestmeter,andverifythat

thepowerinputsourceisproviding120VoltsofpowertotheSaturn™ 2.

b.ValidatethatthepoweroutletsoftheSaturn™2areactivebysettingthetemperature

andhumiditydialstothelowestsettings.Thenuseavoltagetestmetertoverifypoweris

owingthroughthecontrollertothepoweroutlets.

c.Ensurethattheexhaustfananddehumidierare‘ON’andsettothelowesttemperature

andhumiditylevels.

d.VerifythattheSaturn™2issetatthepropertemperatureandhumiditylevelstoactivate

anddeactivateequipment.

e.Ifyourventilationordehumidicationequipmentdoesnotturnoff,verifythatyourexhaust

fananddehumidierarethecorrectsizeforyourgrowarea.Increasesizeofexhaustfanor

dehumidier(ifnecessary)tocoolanddehumidifythegardenasquicklyaspossible.
