LED Light Control
Robo-Tank can control up to 16 channels of LED’s independently. There’s 4 different light modes which can be changed easily.
Setting the LED Intensity for Each Daily Light Mode
From the Home screen press: Settings > Lights, and
you get the screen to the left, LIGHT MODES from
where you can adjust the light intensity for each of
the 16 channels for the 4 daily light modes. The
controller has 4 different light modes it cycles
through each day, High Sun, Mid Sun, Low Sun and
Moon or Night.
The 4 light modes are on the left side, you can toggle
between the modes by pressing the respected
button for each one. When you change modes the
sliders will automatically go to the values you
selected for that particular mode.
At the top of each slider it says either Low End or
High End, press this area and the slider range changes. High range allows you to adjust the LED intensity from 0 (off) to 4095
(full brightness). If you select low range the slider adjust from 0 (off) to 255 (dim) allowing you to fine tune the lights at the
lowest brightness.
Use the sliders to adjust the values for each channel, the screen shows 8 channels, to modify the other 8 channels, press Ch
9 – Ch 16 in the bottom right hand corner.
At the top left corner there's a button, Test Modes, if you press this the controller will cycle your 24hr cycle in 1 minute so
you can see the effect. Please note the transition is smoother when it does so in normal time. If you have 0 for moon and
4095 for low sun it will skip some of the increments as it transitions each schedule in 15 seconds.
*NOTE: On channel 9-16 if you have a dosing pump stirrer setup the slider will be replaced with a label showing which stirrer
is enabled
Customizing the LED Slider Colors
From the Home screen press: Settings > Customize >
Sliders, and you get the CUSTOMIZE SLIDER COLORS
screen to the left, for customizing the LED slider
colors. You can choose from 8 different colors and
assign one of them to each of the 16 LED channels.
Press the channel number you want to change and
it’ll turn white as seen on the left. Then select the
color you want for that particular channel and the
channel text color will change to match what you
selected.
This is useful so you don’t forget what colors are on
each channel.
*NOTE: The blue text is bright and clear on the display
