I wanna setup times and % for leds I do not have the pwm module so i was womdering
so can anyone tell me if this code would work?

You would need to have #define DisplayLEDPWM inside your features file. Otherwise it will not include the PWM section.

Secondly, if you have multiple PWM.SetActinic or SetDaylight function calls, it will override the previous one. Your PWMSlope function is setup incorrectly. The start time will simulate the "sunrise" for you over the duration and the stop time will simulate the "sunset" for you over your duration.

The simplest way for you to do this would have been to have chosen for RAGen to add PWMSlope for you. Then you would have been able to to just have this: Then you would just set in Internal Memory the On / Off times for the StandardLights to tell PWM what on/off times to use. And then set the PWM Duration, Actinic & Daylight Start & End percentages. So you can shift the times and values around over wifi. Otherwise, like you were doing would have them hard coded and you would not be able to change them without uploading new code.

Or if you just want your existing code fixed, you have to make some changes: Your PWMSlope function was missing 2 variables. So your code would not have compiled at all due to the missing define (mentioned above) and incomplete PWMSlope function.

Would this mean it would use the relay ports for standardlights? Because I wanted to use them for a second tank white and blues. Unless I use the metal halide ports and just do not set the standardlights to a port on the relay. Would that work until I get another relay box? I would like the definitely use the WiFi capability!

I understand how you coded it now, I thought you would have to different lines one telling lights to turn on and one to turn off, but I understand.

I am trying to read up on the code I just have so little time in the day to sit and read up on it.. I will get there sooner or later..

Thanks For the help!

No, you can still keep the drivers plugged into the wall.
In which case, you will want to return 0 on the last parameter.

You guys are the best it is working! Next is WIFI WOOHOO

Thanks
