Comparison between SOL-LED Plus, SOL-LED and SOL-7000
The three Season Generator programmers manage the photoperiod with gradual dawn and dusk, but are designed for different lighting systems.
- SOL-LED Plus directly controls low voltage LED bars and adds brightness sensors and outputs to control external relays.
- SOL-LED directly controls the same types of low voltage LED bars, with more essential equipment.
- SOL-7000 controls dimmable lamps and an ON/OFF output for neon or mains-powered general lighting.

Which model to choose​
SOL-LED Plus is indicated when you want to directly control the LED bars in the cages and, in the same system, also manage brightness sensors or the general lighting of the room via external relays.
SOL-LED is indicated when the system uses low voltage LED bars and does not require brightness sensors or dedicated outputs for external relays.
SOL-7000 is indicated when the system uses dimmable and neon lamps or other ON/OFF loads connected to the network outputs of the control unit.
For connections and electrical limits, always consult the manual of the model you own:
Features may depend on the hardware and firmware version installed. In case of differences, the product label, the technical data sheet and the specific manual of the control unit will prevail.
