New to kessil. Could use some help

[NEaquaman]

Hey all. I got a new kessil 160 for my nuvo 10 and I'm having issues getting it to program.

I want the lights to come on at 4pm/1500hrs and ramp up and come down shutting off at 2am.

I set everything right. Use the preview and all looks good. But when I save it and select it the time gets all screwed up and starts at midnight and shutting off at 2am

What's causing the time to get all mixed up

Thanks for any help

Alot of controllers have an issue with the program runs after midnight.
You may have to set the clock on the controller to offset for the 2 hours after midnight.

Come on kessil. I really hope this isn't the case

How are you controlling the kessil?

The on and off on two different dates may be messing with the controller .... also if 4pm it's 1600 hrs... lol I'm sure that was just a typo but had to point it out

I'm using the kessil controller and it was a typo. My second post corrected it. Fat fingers

I have the kessil controller as well but am running a schedule that doesn't fall after midnight.

Oh nice. Thanks for the scheduling pic I appreciate it

I just used the quick set program for my lights and never had an issue. You should have a dialogue box that appears at the end asking you to save (yes or no). Then you select the quick set for the port that the light is connected to. As far as running past midnight, it should work, but I've never tried it?
If it's an issue running past midnight, like radecatur mentioned, just change the time on the controller itself.

Luvreefs diagram worked perfectly. I'll have to wait for my next day off to run quickset program 2 to make sure but it seemed like it would work.

Considering the amount of money spent on this system having to adjust the time to get it to work how it's suppose to is unacceptable. But the diagram is what I was looking for and anyone looking to run these kessil past midnight should use it

Thanks again luvreefs

Cool, hope you got it all good now. The technology with these tanks and equipment makes you more nutty with each new thing that comes out. Glad these forums are around to help one another out.
