If you find your preset here and want it removed, please send me a message. In short: USE THE PRESETS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND DISCRETION. Some presets might have been designed with a very specific goal in mind and might not suit your specific setup or taste. Please be advised that I have collected these presets from many different sources (facebook / reef2reef etc), and that I'm not responsible for any damage these might do to your corals.

Unfortunately, for some presets I could no longer trace back where they come from. feature.Here, I have collected many different Aqua Illumination presets, to be used with the Aqua Illumination Hydra 26HD/52HD.įor most presets, the file name also reflects the original author.

The ups was just a means to make sure the controller and lights had power when power is not available. To build that all into the lights will undoubtedly cost the manufacturer more thus raising the cost of the lights. With built-in wireless control capabilties you can connect wirelessly to the New Controller or upcoming Director platform with ease and freedom Independence No longer are effects isolated to a group of colors or fixtures, with LED-level sequencing our weather effects are the most realistic ever. Upon release, the indicator LED will turn red. If the indicator LED is green, hold the button down on the side of the light for 7 seconds until the indicator LED begins to flash red/green. How long does the light wait for the signal to be lost because maybe you just turned a different direction and the wireless signal was lost for a few seconds then re-established. In order to discover your AquaIllumination lights with the Director, the indicator LED on the side of the lighting fixture needs to be red. To get the feature your looking for, will require the same sort of technology, an operating system to run an application that monitors the controller a processor chip to run the application and then triggers an event for the lights to turn down when the signal is lost then resets the lights when the signal from the controller is regained. But all those automatic features make the cost of the car higher and more expensive every year.

After all the auto industry is doing it with cars, you no longer have to check your tire’s air pressure, or make sure you brake properly on slick roads because we now have computers in cars that do that for us. I understand your point Mark and they will most likely address the issue at some point. I thought this was important, because LED lighting is just applied differently than conventional metal halides or flourescents. And I’ve been keeping reefs for over 16 years and I’m a Curator of a public aquarium. The reason I mention this is that I did not get this when first setting up my lights, and the lights were on 24/7, but I thought they were going off at 10:30pm. Channel 2 is set for midday, at a higher intensity, and channel 3 is set for a diminished intensity to simulate sunset (often with more blue colors). So for example, channel 1 turns the light on at a diminished setting for sunrise. The way the SOL controller works is that each “channel” is set to a specific light intensity, which might consist of different mixes of colors. Well the SOL controller doesn’t work this way, and my guess is that other LED controllers are different as well. And those timers all had one or more channels, where each channel had an on and an off setting. Most of us became accustomed to using metal halide or T5 or power compact flourescent lighting where the light was plugged into a timer. One of the shortcomings I found with the SOL fixture was the controller. We’ve been using their SOL fixture with great results. Good point about the whole wireless-but-not-wireless issue. Thanks for a thorough and useful review, Mark.
