Set up Profilux Plus 2 for Dummies

[RezReef]

I just purchased the system and I'm trying to run my lights with it... Just can understand the manual/programming... I have Icecap Reef Illumination... 6 bulb, 2 moonlight strip lights... Is there a thread that explains this in simple terms for dummies???

I am not aware of these light but assuming they are standard on off and not dimmable with 0-10V inputs

decide what power socket you wish to run them off for example socket 1

go to socket outlet function and set socket 1 to timer 1

go to timer 1 under process menu and set your on and off times

repeat for your other time dependant devices.

Ok...I think I have it... So if I want to run my moonlights from 8 pm to 2 am then again from 6 am to 8 am... How would I set it up...

[Aqua-Digital]

set two schedules in the chosen timer you can set up to 8 in one timer.

once you have set one time up then click on new and set another.

Ok...so let me explain what I have so far in regards to how I set up the system so far...
1. Control box is plugged in to a separate powerbar.
2. Power Bar plugged into an outlet.
3. RS232 plugged into computer
4. Power Bar connected to the S1-S4
5. Temp probe plugged in and in sump
6. Moonlight plugged into S1
7. 2 bulbs plugged into S2
8. 4 bulbs plugged into S3

Assuming S1 goes from right to left as the pic shows in the manual ... 4 outlet powerbar

What i see on the screen is Alarm: pH 1 flashing...I set the sockets/Timers as stated and all six lights are currently on and not what i wanted...th S2 and S3 led lights are on and not the S1...

So I think I have the lights figured out...thanks for pointing me in the right direction...I still have the alarm flashing...how do I stop this? Why do we have this cord hooked up to my computer?
