Well, started cleaning things up a bit now that most everything is figured out. But now that I unhooked a couple things, I can't remember how they go back together.

Here's where I'm at now. I took the HLG drivers out of the box. I was originally going to put it all in the left upper cabinet of the tank stand, but that put it in the same compartment as the overflow. I eventually thought that would give me moisture issues with the electronics so I mounted everything to a piece of plywood which will sit in the roof of the cabinet. I'm still looking to extend the TFT screen and mount it somewhere where I can reach it, but honestly, even if it just sits up top, not visible, it's not that big a deal. It's not very often I'll be changing anything with it regularly anyway.

This is what it looks like now:





Now I just need to remember how the heck to hook up the HLG drivers.
I've got the LED's in series hooked up to the V- and V+. But the Dim- and Dim+ are the wires that have me stumped. I think the Dim+ goes to the PWM pin on the Arduino... And the Dim- to the ground plane of the Arduino..????
I think I may be losing my brain cells...

Anyone???
