    Custom Radion schedules....Question

    Hello everyone. I am running radions connected through the WXM module on an ApexEL. I run close to a general AB+ program but I would like to be able to switch to a bluer spectrum quickly and easily when people are over to view my tanks. I have a virtual outlet configured that I call "Reef_View". It basically turns off all my flow so that the tank can be viewed top down without surface disturbance. I would also like to use this same outlet to turn my radions to a different bluer spectrum when on. When I look at the basic view for my radions it looks like this:

    Fallback OFF
    tdata 11:02:00,0,0,0,0,0,100,100,100,0,0,100,0,0
    tdata 12:01:00,0,0,75,24,24,100,100,100,20,0,100,0,0
    tdata 19:02:00,0,0,75,20,20,100,100,100,18,0,100,0,0
    tdata 20:02:00,0,0,0,0,0,50,100,100,0,0,100,0,0

    I tried configuring the bluer spectrum that I want for viewing and simply adding the line at the bottom of the program:



    If Reef_View ON Then tdata 11:02:00,0,0,0,0,0,100,100,100,0,0,100,0,0
    tdata 12:01:00,0,0,75,24,24,100,100,100,20,0,100,0,0
    tdata 19:02:00,0,0,75,20,20,100,100,100,18,0,100,0,0
    tdata 20:02:00,0,0,0,0,0,50,100,100,0,0,100,0,0

    That didn't work. Can anyone help out here?

    Thanks, Aaron

    You cannot use tdata like that as part of an If statement.

    Define a profile using the Profiles page.... pick any of the 32 profiles and edit it. Give it a suitable name such as ReefView. Change the Type to Radion and configure the spectrum as desired.


    Then add a line after the tdata for your normal daily schedule in the program for each of your Radions:

    If Output Reef_View = On Then ReefView

    On the ecolive module you can have it set to maintain changes for x minutes and then it reverts back to normal programming. So if I clicked on the All Blues preset, it would jsut maintain that for 10 minutes.There is no way to do that on the phone app? I just installed my wxm and am 10 minutes into it...so, maybe I need to research more. But I could not find that.

    There is using feed modes or virtual outlets.

    In radion advanced tab

    If FeedX 000 Then profilename


    Or

    ViewMode (VO)
    Set ON
    When On > 010:00 Then OFF

    In radion advanced tab

    If Output ViewMode = ON Then profilename
