    Question my led strip

    I will be purchasing an Apex Jr soon to use with my dos. I would also like to use it to ramp up and ramp down my buildmyled actinic strip. as of right now I use a reef keeper lite to do that. I had just went on buildmyleds website and they are no longer in the aquarium lighting business . how will I hook up my led strip to the apex for control? I dont want to be running 2 controllers.
    Thank you
    Chris

    Without the VDM module, the JR would only allow you to turn ON/OFF - no ramping. If you bought the VDM module and hooked it up to the JR, that would add the Ramping functionality via 1-10V control.

    SO I would use the same cable that I connect to my reefkeeper lite?
