Coralife aqualight

I have a Coralife Aqualight Digital Power Center.



I can't figure out how to program this..I do have the instructions but can't get it to work the way I want it to, or if it will like the way I want it to ..

Ok, I'm just trying to get the 2 yellow(day) to run my lights, I want my Blue lights to come on at 1pm and go till 11pm, and want my MH to come on at 4pm and go off at 10pm..


This is what I do, I go to cycle 1 and set it up with my blue lights to start at 1pm on and 11pm off, The go to cycle 2 and set it up for the MH 4pm on and 10pm off..But, both light come on at 1pm... Can you set up the yellows to start and stop at different times or do the always come on together? and, I cant figure out how there is 7 different cycles for 4 outlets?

I'm lost here, Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

 

Hey fishbait, I have a bunch of those same digital timers. Now, I'm not super crazy about them because of a few things. The main thing I don't like about them is that basically when your daylight (yellow) outlets are on, your night (purple) are off and vice versa. You cannot seperate the daylight or night outlets, both plugs go on and off together.

So, if you only had one, you can only have one thing on, and the other off. However, it was annoying that say the night outlets stayed on the whole time my day outlets were off. For instance I wanted to run my moonlights from 11pm to 3am, but my daylights didn't go on until 2pm the next day, so using the timers night outlest, my moons would stay on from 11pm-2pm the next day, a waste.

I used to have two of them so I could seperate plugs and have things go on different intervals but combine, instead of have one go off when the other comes on, am I confusing you yet?

I also plugged a manual timer with the dial for my moonlights so they didn't have to be stuck on that long while the daylight outlets were off.

The 7 different cycles is because there are 7 days in a week, it allows you to program a different cycle everyday.

 

Sounds like a timer I have. Both days go on TOGETHER, not separate plus the days light cannot be on when the night ones are and vise vera. .

 

lol, Yes, I'm confused more now! lol

Yea, I didnt like the fact that the days were on and the nights were off or vice versa but, I can live with that...I just want to have the day outlets come on and go off a different times but, It's looking like I'm not going to be able to do that..

Thanks for the help, I think..lol

 

You are correct, both daylight or night outlets go on/off together, you aren't able to program seperate timers for each one individually.
