Programming ATI Powermodule Hybrid

Starrhmsp · Mar 4, 2022

Just received a "new to me" 4 Bulb T5/LED Powermodule w/Wifi. I'm clueless on how to program it. It looks like I'm not able to use the PC Software program with a chromebook or a MAC. How do I program it thru the web based program? I wanted to run just the T5's @ 100% for a few hours a day until the 24 burn in period is up and then after that I need to figure out how to set a schedule for mixed reef without burning everything I have. There must be some preset programs out there, no?

You can’t burn Coral with t5s, set the leds to ramp and the t5s to 0 or 100%, ramping T5 bulbs also shortens their life

What’s a good LED intensity and duration to start with?

I’ll just use the default color settings. I have T5’s on the tank now but the bulbs are old and it doesn’t have LED. Just waiting for someone to hang this new one, figured I’d program it first.

Use the LED section solely for bling/supplementation. I'd start at 30% or just set them to what looks good to you and run at a short time frame to start. 2-3 hours is reasonable.

When these first came out too many people fried acros as they ran them too high and too long.
