Newbie radion program advice

[percy_1981]

Hi there I'm just in the process of setting up my lighting program on my 2 xe15w pros on my 3x2x2 SPS tank (from razors).

I've been advised to set my program on one of the presets raising from 50% to 70% over a few weeks. I'm thinking of starting with the radiant colour mode. I know how to find this mode. Am I correct in thinking I need to set the overall brightness to 70% in the radiant colour mode and then turn acclimatisation mode on starting at 50% over say 3-4 weeks? Can somebody let me know if this is correct please.

Also is the radiant colour mode ok to be starting with?

Percy,

All of the schedules available on EcoSmart Live will work great. That said, you are correct in your assumptions with acclimation mode. You will choose your overall brightness, then once acclimation mode is enabled you will be select the percentage by which you would like to reduce.

Thanks Alex. How can tell if the acclimation mode is working? I have set the radiant colour to 70% brightness and the acclimation starting at 50% for 4 weeks is enabled. Can I tell by looking at the percentages on the schedule page or somewhere else?

Percy,

If you sign into EcoSmart Live, take a look at the purple acclimation line below your graph. Also, if you hover over the acclimation icon, it will give you more information.
