Can you control light intensity separately on two Kessils that are K-linked?

Hey everyone, I have an AP9X and an A360XE that I have K-Linked. I love having them perfectly in sync, but right now I'm using the A360XE as a spotlight for some SPS and an anemone near the sand bed. I can't bring up the intensity too much or my AP9X which I'm using for gentle broad-tank light would fry my LPS.

Anyone know of a way to raise an individual light's intensity while still linked? I know I could, say, buy the dongle for the A360XE... but I would love to save that 100$ if I can, and have them remain nicely synced. Thanks for any help!

Yes you can. Are you using the controller or dongle?

I'm using the AP9X as the 'parent' controller for the A360XE.
I’m not familiar with that. I use the spectral x controller, and a dongle. But the way to do it on those is to put the lights in manual mode, go to “group”, and move one of the lights out of the group. It displays them by serial number. Then make a custom schedule for the separated light, and put each on the schedules made.

Oh neat, I'll try that when I get home, thank you! You may have saved me a 100 Canadian buckaroos potentially.
