How do I do a typical timer setup?
I want to setup my lights so that the Royal Blues come on at 8:00AM, then an hour later the Blues come on, then an hour later the Whites come on. In the evening, I want to reverse this so that the White’s turn off first, then the Blues, then the Royal Blues.

1
|
Time: 8:00 AM
Royal Setting: 80% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF |
Turns on Royal Blue to 80% starting at 8:00 AM. Keep both White and Blue at previous levels (which are 0% because of Timer #6) so set them to “- -“. The 60m Ramp Period means make the Royal Blues go from 0% to 80% in one hour. |

2 |
Time: 9:00 AM
Blue Setting: 80% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF |
An hour has passed. Now turn on Blues at 9:00AM. Royal Blue should be at 80% right now. No change in Whites (they are still at 0%) and no more changes to Royal Blue so double-dash “- -“ for them too. |
||||||
3 |
Time: 10:00 AM
White Setting: 80% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF |
Another hour gone by. Now we turn on the Whites at 10:00AM. Both Blue and Royal are at 80% each, so both of those get double-dashes as we don’t need to change them. |
||||||
4 |
Time: 7:00 PM
White Setting: 0% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF |
Now its 7:00PM at night. Let’s turn off the Whites first. Whites slowly dim from 80% to 0% over the course of an hour (60m Ramp). Leave the Blues and Royals alone (at 80%). |

5 |
Time: 8:00 PM
Blue Setting: 0% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF
|
Now we turn off the Blues an hour later. |
||||||
6 |
Time: 9:00 PM
Royal Setting: 0% Ramp Period: 60m Lunar Cycle: OFF |
And finally the Royal Blues go off an hour after that. All LEDs are now at 0%. |
