    LSM module not working correctly

    My moon lights come on during the day!
    I did not change the program, but it is:

    Set OFF
    If Moon 000/000 Then On

    Any suggestions?

    Yes, that is normal. The Moon is “up” during the day sometimes in real life. The LSM simulates a natural lunar cycle. With that default programming, it will also cause the intensity will wax and wane as the cycle goes from New Moon to Full Moon and around again to New Moon.
    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.

    Thanks!!! How would I change the program so the moon lights only come on when the main lights are off? I appreciate your response . I just got the Apex last week and this programming is very confusing for me!

    In the lunar outlet put this:

    If Output [light output name] = ON Then OFF

    Thanks Jon!
    Your suggestion worked out great! If you don't mind I have a follow up question. Is there a way to change the intensity over time? For example 10 pm 15%; 11 pm 30%; 1am 100% 3 am 50 % etc.?
    Thanks in advance!!!

    You could remove the If Moon 000/000 Then ON programming and use wizard an ramp up and down the lunar lights.
