Attb. Apex controller owners Please post your custom programming here so everyone can share. Please be detailed with your instructions so all can use if they feel the need. I think it will be intersting to see the differences in how people run theirs.
 
Instead, just take a look at Reeftronics where you can choose to view the status and the code of dozens of users. Just select a user from the list at the top of the page and select "Apex Program" from the menu. Everyone posting their code to this thread might become unwieldy in a hurry.
 
well that site was not much help for me. ALL i can find is where to add your programming and link your controller to their site so "someone" can help you controll it, besides if anyone is going to make changes to my controller via the web it will be someone from neptune...atleast until I get the hang of it
 
Can anyone atleast show me their programming set up to ramp leds up and down to mimick sunrise/sunset..thanks
 
In order to setup "ramps", you need to define Profiles, and then setup the Outlets. I've attatched images below of my Blues.

NOTE: I do not run my LED's to full power, only 75% power. So my Start/End Intensity is set to 0-75 when coming on (sunrise), and 75-0 when turning off (sunset).
I also had to create a Profile for RampOn. The Start and End intensity is 75-75. This will keep my Blues at 75% power for the On peroid of time.

Also note that my Ramp Time is 60 minutes. You can choose a shorter or longer amount of time, but make sure to set the Outlets RampUp/RampDown times to match the profiles.
