My port 8 is set to always on. How do i set it up so that it's ON 16 hours a day? Below is my code.

From what time to what time?

[Rey]

on from 7am to 11pm

Code: Select all

  ReefAngel.StandardLights(Port8,7,0,23,0);

Just because it says Lights, doesn't mean it has to be used only for lights
Would that work for you?

[Rey]

so even if i already have standardlights in my code this will not conflict with each other?

[rimai]

Nope
You can have all 8 ports using StandardLights() function

[Rey]

awesome. Thanks roberto..

Just make sure you use the long version of the StandardLights function. There are 2 versions of it:

• Short Version - StandardLights(Port) that uses the internal memory values for the on & off times
• Long Version - StandardLights(Port, on hour, on minute, off hour, off minute) that uses the values passed in

The short version actually calls the long version using the default internal memory locations for the Standard Lights. Probably more information than what you wanted, but I figured I would clarify things a little more.
