  1. It does work. It's just that I was never there when it was almost night time. I had to change the whites to dim down faster then the blues so it looks like it was turning from day to night. But it looks to be a success. Thanks to all of you guys. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. I haven't really been home during those times. In the morning by the time I wake up and get my kids ready it is already at 80% and you cannot really tell the difference. I am really going to try and monitor it tonight so I can tell if it works. Here is a pic of the other side of the tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. At 25% dimm The reef keeper measures 2.35 V the PWM out measures 1.15 volts Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. Ok. Now on my rke it does show that it is dimming but It is not ramping down. It just stays at 100% even when it is at 20%. Almost like it needs a ground to drain the power. Weird. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  6. I think that I just got the settings right with the ramp times. It does work well. The only thing that I miss is the ability to just turn the knobs. Just thinking if I had to turn the lights on when there off I am gonna have to go in and change the ramp time and ect. But after I get the lights on the proper dimming schedule it should be fine. They just came out with a new modal that is supposed to blow their competition out of the water. Think it's called Archon.

  7. Ok. I hooked it up just now. The house was engulfed in flames. Waiting for the fire department to put out the fire. Lol. J/k. It seems to be working correctly. I set alc to the right times ramp and intensity. So we will see if it works Tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  9. So I hooked it up. Just not to the drivers yet. I measured the voltage in a ramp up of two min and it works perfect. Next I will be hooking up the drivers. Just have to find some more time. I have a 3yrold and a 1 yr old. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I will be attempting this tomorrow. Wish me luck. I'm going to try it first with no led lights it drivers on just to make sure that the voltage is dropped down to 5 volts and it is varying the alc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. Can I keep the dimmers hooked up or do they need to be disconnected completely. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. I just got it today I'm going to try to do something this weekend. As soon as I'm done and I wired up I'll let you know how it works. I had an old router and I'm going to use this as the 12 V supply Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. i cannot believe that i missed that .. thanks!!!
  14. Let me know your paypal email address and i will send the money today..
  15. Hello. Is there anyone out there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Let me know what you want to do. I have no problem throwing you some money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  17. And i think I would need 2 of them. Right I have 3 lights 6 drivers. There is 2 channels on the alc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  18. I would do that. But how would this hook up. I am pretty good with electronics but just need to be put in the right direction. Lmk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. the reef keeper only has 2 ports for 0-10v. what do you mean loading code onto what board? the alc? i just checked there website and they are coming out with a module this month called Archon that is supposedly going to blow the competitions controllers away.... looks really cool but from what info i found its going to be expensive, but what isn't in this hobby..lol..
  20. I know I am posting an awful lot but my mind is thinking 10 different things. If i get a voltage divider would that work? I seen this one. But it says analog. Mine is a pwm signal right. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=261236107511 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Just opened the driver. It shows what the 3 wires do. Now my alc reef keeper does 0-10v. How do I get the voltage down to 0-5v. Here is a pic. It says ground/pwm/5v http://i.imgur.com/dm3jlsi.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Is this what you guys wanted? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  25. The black to white reads 4.90 constant. The yellow it the one that dims it back to the driver. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
