VDM and AI Sol blue programming

[ravedood]

I just bought the VDM to control my 6 AI Sol blue lights. Can someone give me an example on how to control these lights using the VDM? i would like to control timers, 3 color intensities, etc.

Thanks

In the outlet you will see three additional outlets. White, blue and royal blue or just blue again. The second will be royal blue. I will help with one then then you try the rest and if if you want post and we can review. I will give you an example of Royal Blue. starting at 400pm.

In the royal blue / 2nd blue outlet.

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Time 16:00 to 17:00 Then PF2
If Time 17:00 to 11:00 Then PF3
If Time 11:00 to 11:59 Then PF4
If Time 11:59 to 06:00 Then PF5

Now program the PF / profiles

PF 2
Start intensity 0
End intensity 75
Ramp time 60 minutes

PF 3
Start intensity 75
End intensity 75
Ramp time 0 minutes

PF 4
Start intensity 75
End intensity 2
Ramp time 60 minutes

PF 5
Start intensity 2
End intensity 2
Ramp time 0 minutes

So what happens is the lights start at 400 pm and ramp up to 75% over an hour. Then are on at 75% from 500 pm to 1100 pm at 1100 pm they start to ramp down from 75% to 2% over an hour, then at midnight they stay on at 2% until 600am for moon lighting. At that point in time they will be off until 400 pm.

You can adjust the times and intensity as you see fit. Just starting out I would not go any higher then 50%, on the blue lights and 35% on the whites.

Hope that helps.
