This is my list so far. If you have an idea, please feel welcome to post it.
1) If the IOTA device looses connection the schedule should remain unchanged, sadly if the device looses the wifi signal for example you can see that light running a different setting that the rest...
2) Lunar cycles should be added
3) Ability to update the light's firmware via apex
Thats all for now. Thanks !
I'm pretty sure 1 could only be accomplished on the AI end, since if the apex loses connection to it, it can't send a signal to put it in a different mode in the first place. AI could possibly add some feature in their firmware that switches it back to auto from manual after X time elapses of no new changes from the apex
You can already do 2
3 is also likely impossible.

Another thing I would add its a test option. So I can test the looks of certain values without messing the light schedule.
How can you do number 2? I cant see any option in the apex related to that...Quote:

You can do that either by setting a schedule in the wizard and running the preview button or if you want to test a single point, define a profile with your desired test intensities and addQuote:

Sorry zombie I don't quite get that. I want to have a lunar cycle. Pretty much what the AI program does in the app.Quote:

if you want to simulate what the AI app does, you create a virtual outlet with the format below. The times in the virtual outlet need to be when your lights are equal to or less than your desired "moon intensity" in the wizard. (Note: dont start the outlet name with Moon. It's fine if the word moon is in the outlet name, it just cant be the first 4 characters of it or it can cause weird bugs). The example below has a moon "window" of 10pm to 8am.Quote:

Create a profile with your desired intensity and spectrum. I'm calling it LEDmoon below.
In the advanced tab of the wizard (gear icon) add the line
If Output vMoon = ON Then LEDmoon

Guys, the use of profiles is not available for IOTA/AI.
Hydra/Vega profiles are only for use with the older AI lights controlled through a AWM.
Does the fact that profiles cannot be used with IOTA/AI mean that you cannot really use programming to change the IOTA/AI lights ?
Without referring to a profile, how can I set specific spectrum/intensities in certain circumstances (e.g. use FeedD as a night time viewing mode that temporarily interrupts the normal lighting schedule)?
If I cannot, I would add that to the list of improvements.
I'm interested in this too. I have two older 52's controlled by an AWM which use profiles triggered by feed modes for things like darkroom and full on. I'd like the two HD 52's to be able to trigger the same modes.Quote:
