Can anyone help me with setting a lunar cycle.
I got it all setup but when i go to set the number of days till full moon it does something weird and disconnects from the unit when i put the number of days in and click ok. So i found an error in the actual light! They put the wrong color leds in my 2 pads close to the side where the power cord comes out. I was showing the gf all the cool things the light can do when she asked me why 2 pads had different leds, at first we thought it was our eyes playing tricks on us but it is actually is wrong. Where it should be blue i have royal blue leds in its place, so essentially that pad has all Royal blue. Last edited by purelife; 12-11-2010 at 12:32 AM. Reason: update the post

About the color problem, did you isolate the pod by selecting it in the Special Setting option using the enable buttons and then adjusting the colors using the compose color feature in the Day menu under actions? This will allow you to tun off all the other pods and just tweak the colors of the pod in question to confirm your suspicion that one of your pods only has RB LED's and not both RB and B...

Can someone else test this to make sure I'm not crazy?
First if your unit is hung like mine what you will see standing in front of the unit the power cord is to your right hand and the display is to your left. Select light composer(on the physical light) and turn down all 3 colors to 0% Next turn Blue on to 1% take note of where the LEDS are Next turn on Royal Blue to 1% take note of where the LEDS are Now if you have VLink go to compose color and do the same Turn blue on to 1% take note Turn Royal on to 1% take note What i found is that when i turn Royal on 1% on the software its actually turning on the Blue lights. The blue LEDS should be on the back of the pods if you are facing it and it is hung like mine. I wonder if its a bug in the software or just my unit

So there was a software bug i updated the firmware and that solved the reverse sliders.
But i still have the wrong LEDs which Vertex said they would fix for me i am just waiting to hear back from them. They have been super helpful during the whole time going back and forth in emails.
