I Need help with kessil spectral controller

[Jason mack]

Ok I'm having trouble with my settings , the transition from cbbs to kessils is more difficult than I had anticipated.
With the cbbs I could set 24 times so I had a nice ramp up and down , now with 6 settings on the spectral controller I can't get it how I like ...
So if possible could anyone post their schedule for me to compare please ....
I'm interested to see how everyone does theirs.....

What is your time you'd like the lights to come on, when do you want them to hit peak intensity, and when do you want them to ramp down and what time do you want them to turn off? Also your max intensity you'd like them to ramp up to. I'll see what I can come up with

All the videos I've seen on YouTube all talk about the pyramid ramp up and down , but I like to have my blues on first and last thing , so mine looks more like a hat than a pyramid..... as for intensity I'm on the cautious side because I'm afraid , saying that my anamone has now climbed up on top of my monti , so I'm assuming that I'm still too low on that , at the moment its highest peak is 40% color and 75% intensity.....
I want my lights to come on at 13.00 and go off at 00.00 with about 1,5 hrs of blues first and last ..
Maybe it's just me , or maybe because I still have 1 CBB in the middle of the kessils, but this change over has got too me .......

Get a par meter and measure the par, if your anemone is moving, and for sure moving up towards light, there is no way you are pushing the Kessil's to powerful, I would ramp up. I have 9 Kessil A360's and they hit 100% for a few hours a day. Any less, and my Haddoni walks up the rocks.
