I would like to use the sunrise/ sunset feature on my ac3. But i don't want my lights to come on at 7:30. I want them to start at around 1pm. i tried
If Sun 360/360 Then MH1 ON \\ Error: Offset must be between -128 and 127
If Sun 420/420 Then MH2 ON \\ Error: Offset must be between -128 and 127
If Sun 240/540 Then ACT ON \\ Error: Offset must be between -128 and 127
b ut as you see it wouldn't let me. is there a way to do this???
Thanks,
Ryan
Go into aquanotes and set the hour you want it to turn on. I did mine by just changing the "on" hour for each month from whatever is was automatically set to (it was like 8am or something), then using the SUN 000/000 for turning off only. If that makes any sense. I'm not at home so I can't pull up the aquanotes screen. Here's from the AC3 itself.

I did this by offseting my tank time (my tank time is time - 2 hours for example). You can also edit the season table but since AquaNotes supports clock offset I chose that.

I did essentially the same thing by changing the clock time on my AC Jr.

Or you can forget about the table and just use the timer function.
