Constant Percentage on LED dimming?

[ChuckLawson]

I've got the variable ports 3 and 4 on my Apex base unit each attached to a pair of dimmable Meanwell drivers for dimming, but I'm a little puzzled as to the programming.

What I want to do is to ramp up to a maximum of 65% on my whites, and 75% on my blues (each attached to separate ports), stay at that max until the last hour, and ramp back down. I've got virtual outlets assigned for "Sunrise" "Daytime" and "Sunset", and I understand how to do the ramps up and down, but where I'm puzzled is to how to set the "maximum" for each color. I've seen other users post statements like:

If Outlet Daytime = ON Then 65p

But that gives me an error when I try to save it (maybe it's only available on AI lights?). What I've got instead is this:

Set OFF
If Outlet Sunrise = ON Then RampUpCW
If Outlet Daytime = ON Then MaxCW
If Outlet Sunset = ON Then RampDnCW

where "MaxCW" is a profile with a 1 minute ramp with both minimum and maximum at 65.

Is this what I should be doing, or is there a more graceful way to do this -- particularly one where I don't have to use up two profiles for my two max levels?

Thanks!

'65p' would have to be a profile that you've already defined. You probably haven't and that's why the error.

The only thing I see is you don't need your 'maxcw' profile. If 'rampupcw' is going to take you to 65% than the VS port will stay at that until you do something different. So you really don't need anything more than the 'sunset' profile to take you back down to 0. You can get by with a 'rampup' profile and a 'rampdown' profile and whatever the max intensity was left by the 'rampup' will remain until the 'rampdown' starts.

Excellent -- that should make it simpler. Thanks!
