    WXM support Radion Gen4 XR15FW

    Anyone know if the WXM supports the Gen 4 XR15 freshwater.
    I’ve currently got my Gen4 XR15 Pros hooked up via the WXM module all working as they should.

    I had a gen2 XR15 freshwater version over my refugium via WXM too all working fine.

    Managed to get the Gen4 XR15FW super cheap. However it’s only showing the old version channels ie there is no uv on the new Gen4, cool white work but not the warm white.

    Any ideas. Do Apex need to update the WXM module to support these?

    Thanks

    The Apex & WXM have full support for all Radion marine variants, but there is no specific support for freshwater Radions. You can make a FW Radion work but the colors do not map directly, because marine Radions have 6 or 8 color channels, but the FW only has 5. There's more info in this thread: https://forum.neptunesystems.com/sho...adion-FWG4-Pro
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.

    I'd love to see "correct" support for the Freshwater Radion. I'm eyeing one for my refugium.

    Agreed Handegard. I’ve had to link it to my reeflink for now.
    I did have it connected to Apex but all the channels were not present.
    Soon as I connected to the reeflink and set to 6.7k the difference was amazing. Growing macro like you wouldn’t believe.

    Are you using it as a refugium light?
