Default Atman DR-90 2nd switch not wired?

Hi, I just got this Atman DR-90 from NA yesterday, and only upon reaching home than I realized that the 2nd switch is not wired... that is, I do not have that option to switch on only 1 tube.

Is this normal?

you should have the option, but usually without the tube.

try bringing down to the shop again and ask the uncle ?

thanks... troublesome to bring there again.. everytime go there need to wait quite a while for parking.

I look at the electronic ballast circuitry, there is only 1 input and many outputs. So.. maybe this ballast is not designed to have 2 switches? Or it is simply a case of putting the switch in between one of the output wires....

basically if you have 2switches, then you should be wired to both switch so as to control the light tubings.

If its not wired, then something is wrong already, got to bring back to change.

Nope.. I mean I cut the 2 PIN US-plug away, and change it to the typical local 3PIN plug.

Haven't do anything to the switch part..
