Has anyone had any luck finding a nice ramp program for iphone? I am using the 10 point ramp from the website and want to smooth it out and maybe even turn it down a little. I can't seem to find any online or in here.

I will probably just write a couple new ones out to the full 48 points and see how it goes.

Hi Matt
I just got a 32 in light but can't seem to get the smart mode to work at all. I followed a video to put in a program and then had the light unplugged for a week waiting for the tank. When I try to use the program it just seems to turn the lights on from the manual side and no changes. Won't go on or off automatically. Do I need to put the program in again with the light on and set to the smart mode? I have to thin about doing that again. The lack of directions with this light was awful. Also the fact the rails for the tank mount are metal is a really poor design. Lights seem bright enough but starting to wish I had gotten something else.

It took me a while to get it working right here too. I have 2 which made it seem harder here.
Are you able to get them to dim manually or no response at all?

They come on when I start the program but not at the levels I set it at. Seems to come on at the manual setting that I have been forced to use. I have the program off the SB website.

I used this, had a couple hang ups but most of my problem was because I had 2 I had to sync and only able to connect with 1 at a time with iphone.
Thanks for the link. Unfortunately it didn't work. I reset the program tune deleted the program off the phone, reinstalled it, reprogrammed it, left manual settings at 0 and started the program. Said operation sussessful and hubby said the lights got brighter but they never ramped down or went off. I'm thinking I have a defective light I can't imagine after following the video twice that I did something wrong. This isn't hard. Are you using a Android or iPhone app?

I have an old IPhone I'm using. I think if you can get it to manually change all you need to do is go into the program menu.
You then select the device, and need to ok or verify it on the bottom of the screen. I think you can have it run a test, maybe under dif name, but if it will test out you are good. Them you set it for that device and it should go.
 
Thanks. Played with it last night worked on the test then when I added the rest of the program it turned on at a time I didn't have in there. Waiting to see if it works right today. Doing it thru the Android app this time. Dumped the iPhone one fingers crossed. I'm an expert at programming the thing. Now if it only works!
How are your corals liking the light? It's so bring can't imagine using it at 100%. I have a 32 over a Red Sea 65 gallon Karen

Glad to hear you got it, I recharged my IPhone so I could go through it again to help.

I'm still tuning it in but most of my corals seem to be doing good with the light. I've got 2 of the 16" over my 110g and they all look happy even through the hair algae... I have a lot I'm working on still with my tank lol.
