Adjusting the LED Intensity for the Storm
Press: Cloud Target, on the screen above you get the
screen on the left, LIGHTNING STORM MODE.
When the screen loads the LED’s will automatically
go to the intensity selected in this window. This
allows you to see the light level you’re adjusting to.
When you exit the screen the LED’s resume to their
normal levels.
Adjust until you’re satisfied with the look you want
for your aquarium when a storm runs. If the lights
are in LOW SUN, MID SUN, or HIGH SUN mode they
will transition to the levels selected here, if the lights
are in NIGHT mode the lights will not transition, they
will remain at the levels selected for the NIGHT
mode.
Customizing the Lightning Storm
If you press: Customize, on the main Storm Settings
screen you get the screen on the left, WEATHER
SETTINGS. Here you adjust how the lightning flashes
and how long the cloud over and clear lasts.
In the first column we have Lightning Strike
Intensity which allows you to adjust the brightness
of the flashes. The +1, +2, +3 and +4 are multipliers
for the number. +4 at 255 is the highest setting, +1
at 0 is the lowest. The controller randomly selects a
number between the two for the flash intensity so
it’s always different.
The next column is for adjusting the Time between
Lightning Strikes, there are two settings, a low and high, the controller randomly chooses between the two numbers.
The final column is for adjusting the Cloud Duration, this is how long it takes to transition to the storm brightness and then
return to the regular lighting schedule after the lightning is over. Again there’s a low and high setting, the controller will
choose a random time between the two settings.
*Note: If you change the options during a storm you won’t see any difference, you must stop and re-start the storm for them
to take effect.
