Hey all. I switched lighting and bought the ai controller to run the new lights since I knew I couldn't handle programming the apex for LED lighting. Anyway. Now the 5 plugs on my apex that ran my lighting and fans are pretty much useless. What are the chances I will be able to just set them to be on all the time. I can do that from the display right? I know at one point my rt vortec was stuck on even in feed mode. Cat's better half fixed it quick. What should I put on the apex now. It is only running 2 vortecs. Lol

I managed to edit the program for the three plugs I need for the lights. Since there was an on off time set there was no always on option. I set the on time for 8:00am and the off time for 7:59am. Will this work? My lights don't come on until 10am.

To have the outlet stay on, when you're at the outlet to edit the program, set the control type to advanced. Most likely its set to lights right now. When its set to advanced, you can type in the white box. Delete any text in it, and type "Set ON", minus the quotes. That'll keep the outlet on all the time.

You may want to put this...

Fallback ON
Set ON

that way if something weird happens to your apex the outlet will stay on no matter what. Just building a little safety in it.
