hydra 26hd LED's
« on: December 23, 2017, 18:42:35 »
If I want to take pictures of my corals without the blues on, is there an easy way of doing this through the phone app?
To me, it's not that user friendly to adjust the scheduled light routine.  If there was a quick way to turn them off, then back on.

is there?  Can anyone help me?

If your using the AI app to control your lights, you should have “manual” & “auto” buttons in the app. Just switch to manual, adjust the lighting for pictures and then switch it back to auto.

It's that easy? With no oh crap moments afterwards?
For pictures, is the blues the only interference color?

It’s that easy with my AI primes. I’m assuming your app has the same options.

Just bring the whites up a little bit so you have a nice blend of colors and you should get some decent shots

sure enough, that helped.  turning those blues down and whites up certainly pissed off the corals.  some were quickly drawn in and refused to open shortly after set back to automatic.
but it all went back to the way it should have.  phew.  thank you
