AI SOL led Mix-N-Match?
My plan is for SOL Blue leds over my 210 tank long term, but I just found out about a used SOL White for sale near me at a killer price. Would it be possible to use the White unit over a part of the tank that would benefit from a more 10-12k light, along with Blue units everywhere else?
How does the Apex control the LEDs under the new code. Basically a 'channel 1, 2, or 3' control, and it is the same LED for each number in each puck in the connected units? Meaning, for all the Blue units, the white LED is channel 1, the blue is channel 2, and the royal is channel 3?
If so, how would those controls compare on a White unit? I would assume that white = white, blue = blue, and white = royal, but I'm not sure if there is some sort of logic in there that would convert it and run the two white LEDs together at whatever the white channel was set to, and run the single blue at whatever the blue channel is set to, and ignore the royal channel?
Finally, and easy question...does the Apex VDM connect to the first AI module directly, or to the AI controller? Meaning, do I need to buy the AI controller at all, or is that obsolete if I hook the Apex right to the AI module?
I'm sorry if what I'm asking is confusing...if I'm not clear enough, please let me know.
Thanks!
Tim
