Thank you for this. It is surprising how high these presets are running the white channel.

I remember reading very early on in this thread (around page 70-85) the owner of ATI (oliver pritzel) recommending not to take white channel above 50%. Wonder why they have changed this now.

Is a 2013 hybrid (only used for two years) worth buying?
Are there any major issues with them?
Thanks

Buy it. Totally worth it.
I have had mine for a long time now with no problems whatsoever.

I am sorry for the trouble. Unfortunately I am unable to attach the PDF here due to the file size. If you could kindly email us I am happy to provide the quick start guide.

I’m having some strange behavior after the LED lights are scheduled to turn off. Roughly 30 seconds after they shut off, the LEDs flash a soft purple for a split second. Any thoughts why it is doing this?

The LED clusters are overheating:

• The fixture is inside a canopy with inadequate ventilation
• The fans are defective (due to excessive salt, or from being inside a canopy)
• The settings are incorrect: Youtube link here.

You can check the temperature of the LED cluster on the control box for most generations of the fixture, or in the user interface for the WiFi Powermodule. More than likely its around 60 degrees C which is why it is shutting off.

hope this helps!

Just to be clear, the LEDs are running their proper schedule. It is after they shut down in accordance with the set schedule that the strange 30 sec delayed flash occurs, every night. I highly doubt the diodes are overheating. The unit is clean, in a free air space and is programmed to the proper fan settings. Not to mention the LEDs are only used at 20-45% power, so I'm guessing it is more of a programming issue?

 

[Keith@ ATI NA]

Sorry I certainly did misunderstand. It sounds like this flash occurs 1 time each day? A single flash 30 seconds after turning off?

This sounds like a programming glitch. I would recommend a factory reset (depending on the gen this varies, but try holding all 4 outside buttons leaving the middle button alone for 7-8 seconds then release. It should go to 00:00 time) and reprogram the fixture from scratch rather than a saved program you may have on your computer.

You may also need to update the factory settings after doing the factory reset as posted in my previous post.

Tank is fully cycled and fish are in. I can't wait to start adding some corals in a few weeks. It doesn't show in the pictures but light really makes the fish pop so I can't wait to see why it does to corals [emoji7]

I just hung my bought-used 60" hybrid and I noticed the LED clusters have a very high pitched whine to them. Its very irritating. Not sure if I will be able to hear it once the tank it up and running, but if I can hear it, it will drive me crazy. Anyone have an idea of why?

There is no sound other than the fans running when just the 4 T5 bulbs are running. When the LEDs kick on, the whine starts, even at low %s. LED fans did not kick on while testing, but I am guessing they didn't get hot enough.

Hi reefcentral!
I was wondering if any of you powermodule owners have a reefbrite added to your powermodule. I have a 4 bulb powermodule and would like to add a reefbrite to the front of it. Can this be done without too much modification of my light fixture?

Thanks!

From what i understand reefbrite come with bracket that you can directly mount to ati fixture without modification

Typically this is true with Sunpower fixtures. A Powermodule would likely require straightening the brackets since the screws are on the end of the fixture, rather than the top/sides.

Keith,

I've just bought and installed a new hybrid powermodule with the wi-fi-only programming and no screen on the base unit but, every couple of days, it goes out of its programme. The moment I sync with my laptop, all is well again, and it picks up the programme.
But, given that the aquarium is in my studio so I can't keep checking overnight, I'm starting to lose trust in the fixture. If I can't know if is going on through the night and if I need to keep continually reconnecting with my laptop, it is essentially useless to me.

Do you know what is wrong with it?

Keith I'm very interested in this as well. I live in Florida where brownouts are very common especially in the summer. Whenever the power cuts out it messes with the internal clock and I have to connect my laptop and sync again as well.

The software engineers in Germany are working on an easy way to connect your Powermodule directly to your local network, which will keep the internal clock synced with your home network. You can already do this in the back end, but it is difficult especially if you don't have any network or linux experience.
Unfortunately I do not have an ETA.
