Hello,

When you look at the little ATI "Getting Started" sheet that they give you when you buy the dimmable T5 fixture, they give you some controller recommended settings.

The first few program points in their "After first 50+ hours" normal settings schedule is:

1) 9:00 On
2) 9:30 10%
3) 10:00 20%

This might be a dumb question, but wouldn't it be the exact same thing without the 2nd program point?
 
I still haven't figured out why anyone would dim a tube in a reef tank.
