I was trying to decipher the difference in Neptune Fusion and Ecosmartlive ESL with another member. From what I gather the Fusion sidebar scale of 0-100% = ESL Brightness Slidebar . Come to think of it, I don’t see where the intensity shown on ESL would even matter. Seems like a bit of useless (or misleading) info, please correct me if I’m wrong.

The first pic [green circled graph] should show the Red Green White sliders reduced for the color temp spectrum, with the brightness set to 100. The intensity (power used) is 64% of the total available output the fixture can provide.

The second pic [red circled graph] with the sliders all set to 100 and the brightness set to 100 shows the intensity (power used) at 97% of the fixtures total available power.

In conclusion to my thoughts, the intensity info in ESL is more the power used of the total available from the fixture than an actual measurement of lighting intensity, for the average user. So if you were using ESL with the Radion AB+ program and the brightness set to 80% - to achieve the same light output in Fusion you would set the time points and sliders at the same percentage points and drag the actual graphed point in Fusion to the 80% line based off the sidebar 0-100% scale, right?
