Well even though the tent is only part way done I'll post some pics & info. So here's where I am so far.
A couple pics showing tent overall. As you can see the fan is a little low at the moment so it's not being used yet. I did test it out & it works fine without bowing or twisting the tent. I wish I could have found a 12" fan but I only found a 16" in the wall mount type of Oscillating fans. If I come across a 12" I'll put the 2 - 16" in the Flower Room & put the 12" in the tent. I can easily raise the fan I have now as it's hanging on Yo Yo's & Zip tied loosely to the poles till I find the right height for it. But I can't determine height or if I'll be able to use it till my light gets here.
On the left side of the tent I put up 12" x 5' wire shelving to prevent the tent from sucking in & to hold the Saturn 4. I also installed a 4" Exhaust & Filter that exhausts out the window. I can use the Saturn 4 a few different ways.
I'm not exactly sure how I want to run it though just yet. Here's some info from the Titan Controls website on the Saturn 4.

CAUTION: DO NOT install your controller near electronic/digital ballasts, ozone generators and other devices that emit large amounts of electromagnetic interference (EMI) & radio frequency interference (RFI), it will disable the controller. Maintain a minimum distance of 8 feet between the controller & sensor, and all high EMI/RFI devices. Saturn™ 4 – Digital Environmental Controller The simplicity in the design of the Saturn™ 4 is what makes it such a unique environmental controller. It provides the grower with the essential controls for temperature, humidity and CO2 in their garden. The Saturn™ 4 offers three options to maintain the environment in your garden. 1) It can independently lower the temperature via an exhaust fan and decrease humidity using a dehumidifier (Mode A). 2) It can simultaneously lower the temperature via an exhaust fan and decrease humidity using a dehumidifier (Mode B) or 3) Independently lower the temperature via an exhaust fan and increase humidity using a humidifier (Mode C). The Saturn™ 4 also allows you to integrate an optional CO2 system using a CO2 monitor/controller. The CO2 Output only operates during daytime hours and is defeated when the Cooling Output is activated so you’re not wasting your valuable CO2 that you’ve provided for your garden. The Night Output allows you to activate a circulation fan or other devices during the nighttime hours. The Saturn™ 4 provides you with the total control you’re looking for in your garden.

Instructions for Operation 1. Securely mount your Saturn™ 4 in your grow area and away from any moisture, spray, pesticides or other materials that could harm the unit. 2. Ensure that all of the devices being connected to the controller are 120 Volt only and will not exceed the maximum amperage rating for the Saturn™ 4. 3. Connect your gear (exhaust fan, CO2 controller, night circulation fan, dehumidifier, etc.) to the Saturn™ 4. The sensor has a quick connect cord set to easily connect or move the sensor. Secure the quick connect cord to the Saturn™ 4 by plugging it in and securing the QD screw to the unit. 4. Place the sensor in an area with good air movement, and where it is exposed to your grow lights and not shaded or covered. Avoid placing the sensor in direct sunlight or under direct HID lighting. NOTE: Do not place sensor anywhere it might get wet. SENSOR IS NOT WATER PROOF. 5. Plug the power cable into a standard 120 Volt wall outlet. 6. Adjust the knobs to the desired settings on the Saturn™ 4. 7. The Saturn™ 4 should now activate and deactivate your equipment based on the preferred settings you selected. COOLING OUTPUT: This outlet is intended to active an exhaust fan to ventilate the garden due to high temperature conditions. CO2 OUTPUT: This outlet is for a CO2 device and powers ON during the daytime period only. It will deactivate when the ‘Cooling Output’ is activated. By achieving this, you are not ventilating the CO2 as you’re enriching your grow area and wasting your CO2. NIGHT OUTPUT: The outlet can be used for a variety of devices that only require power at night. This outlet activates only during the nighttime period. HUMIDITY OUTPUT: This output is for use with a humidifier or dehumidifier. USING THE TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY DIALS: Temperature Dial: Use the dial on the left to set the maximum temperature for the growing area. If the temperature reaches or rises above this set point, the controller will activate the cooling device, and the cooling device will remain on until the temperature is reduced to 3° F below the set point. For instance: If the temperature set point is 75°F, the Saturn™ 4 will activate the exhaust fan at 75°F and deactivate the fan when the temperature drops below 72° F. Humidity Dial: Use the dial on the right to set the maximum humidity level for the growing area. If the humidity your garden rises or falls above or below this setting (depending on whether you’re using a humidifier or dehumidifier) the Saturn™ 4 will activate the humidity device, and it will stay active until the level is raised or lowered by 5%. For instance: If the dehumidify set point is 50%, then the Saturn™ 4 will activate at 50% and deactivate when the humidity level goes below 45%. Conversely, if the humidify set point is 50%, then the Saturn™ 4 will activate at 50% and deactivate at 55%
OPERATING MODES: The Saturn™ 4 has three operating modes. This selection depends on the type of devices being connected to the controller. Press the Select Mode button to change from MODE A, B or C. A green LED will let you know what MODE you are operating in. Mode A: This mode independently lowers your temperature and humidity. If you are connecting a cooling device (such as a exhaust fan) to lower the temperature AND a dehumidifier to lower the humidity level, the controller will activate these devices independently based on the temperature and humidity levels in your grow room and your preferred set points. The ‘Cooling Output’ is activated when the temperature set point is exceeded and the ‘Humid/Dehumid Output’ is activated when the humidity set point is exceeded Mode B: This mode simultaneously lowers your temperature and humidity. If you are connecting a cooling device (such as an exhaust fan) to lower your temperature AND a dehumidifier to lower the humidity levels, the controller will activate the devices simultaneously if the temperature rises above the set point AND/OR the humidity level rises above the set point. The ‘Cooling Output’ and ‘Humid/Dehumid Output” will both be activated until both the temperature and/or humidity set point is reached. Mode C: This mode independently lowers the temperature and increases the humidity. If you’re connecting a cooling device (such as a fan) to lower your temperature AND a humidifier to raise the humidity level, the controller will activate these devices independently based on the temperature and humidity levels in your grow room and your preferred set points. The ‘Cooling Output’ is activated when the temperature set point is exceeded, and the ‘Humid/Dehumid Output’ is activated when the humidity set point is exceeded. Troubleshooting Tips • The Saturn™ 4 has no power? Verify power source is providing 120 Volts A/C. Reset the circuit breaker on the Saturn™ 4 by turning OFF the unit, then turn ON. • The circuit breaker keeps tripping on my Saturn™ 4? Check to see that you are not exceeding the maximum amperage (14.5 Amps) of the Saturn™ 4. • The CO2 Output is not working? This could be because your Saturn™ 4 is not exposed to light. Put the Saturn™ 4 in a location in your grow room so that the PHOTOCELL is not shaded or covered from lights. It also could be because your Cooling Output is active. When this occurs it deactivates the CO2 Output so you don’t ‘dump your room’ and exhaust all the CO2 you’ve injected. • The MODE LED’s are flashing? The Saturn™ 4 has detected a problem with the remote sensor. This can normally be remedied by turning OFF the Saturn™ 4 & disconnecting the sensor, then re-attaching the sensor back to the Saturn™ 4 and turn the unit back ON. The Saturn™ 4 should be functioning properly again. If not, contact our Technical Service Specialist at 888-808-4826 to assist you further. • The humidity is increasing instead of decreasing or decreasing instead of increasing? Verify that your MODE is correct. MODE’s A & B are used to decrease humidity and MODE C is used to increase humidity.
Easier to post the info. Hope I don't get in trouble for posting this info. As far as I know they don't have any
sponsors for Controllers so don't see a reason for it to be an issue.
On the right side is another wire shelf for the same reasons as above. I mounted a surge protector power strip here with a timer for the lights.
On the bottom right I installed a 6" air diffuser to a 6" elbow & connected it to a 6" Carbon Filter & Vortex Fan. The filter is within 2' of the AC vent so it will help bring in cooler air. So this is my Intake Air.
I've tried Intake & Exhaust with a 6" fan on each & still got negative air pressure no matter what speeds I put my fans on. With the 4" exhaust I get negative air pressure if the 6" Intake isn't running at the same time. But with both running things are perfect.
This is where things are as of now. Seems to be working out as planned .... so far. Sure hope the light arrives as planned tomorrow so I can get this done & start re-doing the Flower Room.
