What's the minimum blue output?

Now that I have my Radions paired with Apex's WXM module I need some help with the moonlight output. Using the WXM module I've got the moonlight profile set to 1% intensity for blue only- all other colors are set to zero intensity. With those settings one fixture puts out nothing, one fixture has 4 blues and 4 greens (or maybe that's royal blue? I can't tell) on and one fixture has 2 blues and 2 greens (or rb).
Even the fixture that has just two of each on is pretty bright. I think if there were just only the two leds lit at 1% it'd be perfect. Is it possible to get the lights to do that?
Also, now that the fixtures are paired with the WXM will there be a problem connecting them back up to my laptop/ESL to do a calibration? I did calibrate them when they were new, by the way.
 
You're treading on brand new turf my friend. First of all. Are we talking about 3 fixtures here?
Yes you can set all your blues to 1%. How to do that with the Apex is another question and you're in the wrong forum i think to get the answer to that one. Try going to the Neptune community forum.
I'm going to take a guess and say that possibly the Apex is spreading the 1% out across all 3 of them.
And I can't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to go back to ESL and calibrate.
Like I said though. You're boldly going where no one has gone before..lol I'd really like to know how you resolve this. Bc I'm looking seriously at getting the Apex controller myself
 
I'm wondering the same thing myself as I'm in the she situation as you……
i posted this question up on the Apex site, but no response yet……. until i get the answer, I'm leaving my radians hooked up through ESL just to be safe…… I'm thinking there will probably be something with the full Fusion release that isn't on the new firmware…… hopefully
 
I got it nailed down, thanks to some help on the Apex forum and a little experimenting. I set the overall intensity to 1 and all colors except royal blue to zero. Royal blue is set to 1 and with those numbers all three Radion Gen 2s activate 4 LEDs, as one would expect. Great- problem solved. Downside is it's a tiny bit too bright so instead of running them all night I'm going to figure out a way to run them all night three days a month and for the rest of the time they'll run at that low intensity as the last phase of the ramp down at night, for a half hour or so.
Connecting back to ESL was simple and there were no hiccups. I left the lights running on ESL all day then this morning plugged the WXM back in, re-attached the lights, put the code back in and I'm back in business.
 
I set the overall intensity to 1 and all colors except royal blue to zero. Royal blue is set to 1

Edit the above statement!!! Royal blue should be set at 100 not 1. All colors to zero except royal blue at 1 and that's as low as I can get the lights to work properly. Royal blue by itself at higher numbers seems to give max fluorescence too- better than with both blues turned on.
