Hey all just got my apex jr (I have a small 60g tank no need or budget for the big boy) and I have LED lights (ocean revive 120) and was wondering if there is a way to control the intensity from my apex jr or if I'm just stuck with on/off on this unit? I'd like to get a few hours in the AM at 15% or so then up to 50% then back down to 15% the last few hours creating a sunrise sunset feel. Let me know what if anything I can do. Thanks!

It looks like those lights only have manual dimming, so just on/off control with the Apex.

Lights that have a input or jack for a 0-10V control voltage signal can be controlled with the variable speed ports of an Apex. For an Apex Jr, you'd have to add a VDM module.
