I've had my 260/1500 for a little over a year. Been toying trying to find the best program for color. This is a screen shot of my current programming. Let me know what you think.
Hi there. Just wondering if you could share your program with me? I'm not very good with the whole oc thing etc but am really struggling with setting my light up :0( I would appreciate some help but under stand if you can't. Many thanks David. Daveycoopa@hotmail.com
Ok, so Im having big problems. ever since i got my light Ive never been able to program it. jamie even sent me 3 light files and they all uploaded to the light correctly, but at nights the lights still wont turn off. Its a shame I have a $3000 light hooked up to a timer. Can anyone help with this? If someone sends me their working file and I upload it and it still doesnt work then I def. have a defective light. Please help.
OK, I know you must have done that already but let me tell you what I do every time after I change the program settings:
1. Copy the program to the light.
2. Save the program somewhere on my computer.
3. Click on the Start-Up button.
4. Exit the V-link application.
5. Turn off the power of the light fixture, wait for 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
6. Open the V-link application and click on the Day Program on the app, make sure that the graph it fetches from the light is exactly the same that you have previously programmed.
7. Exit the V-link app, no need to save anything even if it prompts you to.
Good luck.

something is def. wrong. I even Installed a multicolour module and its not showing up. If I go to expert light studio all I see is royal, blue, and white. really weird. Must be a bad fixture! Its holding the program, but not working properly. Everynight tank is blue and moon settings are off. and now new multicolour module wont show up.
Is the desktop software version 2007?

You must make sure that your VertexLink Desktop software is at version 2007. to check, open the Desktop software, from the menu bar, click on "?", then select About. If it is not Version 2007, update it.
Also the firmware update video is on that link and I don't know why can't you see it. Check this direct link for the video:

Ok notclear, i see where we're had miscommunication. Totally my fault. Im on mac. the last version is 1970. so i am on the latest for mac. I did the firmware update on all the pads. so no multicolour pad option. next move it to check if its installed properly. I thought it was since there was one red light on. but not sure.
Do you have the red, green, or warm white modules? I believe they only come with blue, royal blue, and white. At least my SR260 did.
