After 3 power outages and the hassle of having to turn down the cor 20 speeds, I'm finally trying to hook up the apex. I plug in one of the pumps and try to do the iq calibration and my lights do not go blue or green. I'm beyond frustrated and stressed. I have them both set to just 2 lights on so very low. When power comes back on, they come on at full and blast the tank!

My tank is so stressed from all this playing around I'll wait until later to try again but would love some feedback on either what to do or not to do.

Maybe I need to delete the cors from the energy bar and start over?

I've never been able to tune my COR20 or COR15 above 80%... and was never successful in using the IQ calibration due to that issue. Not sure if it's the same thing you're dealing with...
Regardless, calling in the expert Neptune guy: @SuncrestReef

thanks. I'd be happy getting them to just stay at 20-24%. If each light is 6% then having it at 2 lights should be 24%. My goal is if power goes off, and then comes on, they default to the 24%

If the COR is connected and controlled by an Apex, then just go into the COR schedule screen and adjust it as follows:

1. Set the beginning point to 20%
2. Set the ending point to 20%
3. Save the changes
4. Click the Basic View icon to access the program text view of the COR's programming.

5. Change Fallback to 20. This will instruct it on what to do if the Apex is offline or disconnected from the COR, so it will continue running at 20%
6. Save the changes again.

why volt error? only plugged in is bar and cors. We keep losing power in our neighborhood. is it something wrong there. Should I just take off apex until resolved?

And why do I have 2 sets of corpumps

Ugh, so they are not actually on and pumping
