Default Radion Owners - Please Help

Any new Radion owners who know their stuff when it comes to lighting and programming? A few of us are looking for help. We have a thread at the Ecotech forum:

http://community.ecotechmarine.com/e...y_notification

Really, all we need is an understanding of how to program the light spectrum, intensity (kelvins?), and time frames for optimum coral growth. SPS and some people are looking for LPS.

Can anyone help?

tried to play with the programming then figured it's easier just use the default settings and only change the day start time and night start time.unless someone shared his project file,otherwise I won't play with programming any more,everything looks great now for me.

The software is still pretty glichy. But I have managed to program moonlighting into the Natural mode. Still only running max 35% with my 3 Radions. Don't have any SPS yet, but seems to work pretty well with my softies and LPS.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

I have left mine in the artifical mode for now until the natural mode update is released. It sounds like there will be a few upgrades coming eventually including: better coloring in natural mode, moonlights, wireless programming, and Mac compatibilty.

I also have mine on artificial. I was not aware of new upgrades coming up but certainly exciting, especially the wireless programming. For now, I am using a USB adapter and another usb cable which cost me $1 each at the local dollar store. Where did you find the news of the upcoming upgrades?

I read about them mostly on RC and Ecotechs forum. They said when they released the Radion that there will be lots of upgrades in the future.
