Hi - yes I used the search feature and didn't find the specific info that I need. I'm getting a ballast liberty with old-style TA. Can I control the TA with an older Code 3 or Federal SMC1 controller formerly used with halogen bars? Just planning and would like to figure out what I'll need when the Liberty arrives. Thank you

The T/A in the ballast bars are Passive. The bar has a TA cable separate from the Main and Ctrl cable. Any NEGATIVE switched controller will work.
