Light with single power cord

Post by cjrudy »

Setting up a Kessil with my RA. But one question, how do you set it up with a single power cord.The wizard sets up two by default, Actinic and Daylight? Don't want to have a second relay port going on and off each day that's not used

You define what you want the ports to be. Actinic / Daylight are just one of the properties. As you'll be controlling the color by adjusting the dimming ports you don't have to classify it as either.

As far as the dimming ports go, you'll need two one for intensity and one for color. You can plug whichever into whichever dimming port and set the pattern you like to try later.

Right, but I still want to turn the port and on and off even though I will be ramping the color and intensity up and down with the dimming channels

I would declare it as a StandardLights port then for the port and dont worry about the Actinic.
