I'm trying to read the instructions for Acclimation on my new Reefi Uno, it reads:

"Set Acclimation Mode: As acclimation days left goes towards 0, acclimation percentage will approach 100%"

So I just adjusted it to 5, but left the percentage at 100%. Now the labels are red. What does this mean?

If I want it to take 5 days to reach 100% output, how do I set this correctly?
 
Enter the percentage you want to start the acclimation and then days then save.
example: 90% days: 5

I would acclimate longer than 5 days if adding new lights.

I recently added two Unos to my 4 Duo Extremes and set them it at 70% for 30 days

OK, so the first field is what the current acclimation should be, and then as the days count down (automatically?) it should show the percentage increasing?

Also, I just swapped out my old light for this new one. The old one was a Hydra 52HD, running a SB+ profile at full blast (with a lot of harsh cool whites, which I was hoping to avoid with Reefi). So I thought maybe I can get away with 5 days? But shoot, I guess slow and steady will be best.

I'll go with 70% at 30 days!

Yes correct. You can always ramp up faster if needed.

Does anyone know how to test peak times?
I’d like to test my peak time on my own time instead of testing PAR at the scheduled peak time.

I can’t figure it out.

@danlu_gt could you help me out?
