I have two radion xr15w pros (with reeflink). Corals loving the light, fishes seem to "see the tank" better because they explore it more and have the schedule working great. I do have some questions about some use cases.

If I have guests coming over, I'd like it to "stay on" through the evening. Obviously as the evening passes the schedule will dim the lights. Since there is no remote control, we have to rely on the phone app. Any tweak I do changes it the lighting temporarily but it goes back on the schedule a few minutes after I close the app. I have my override timer set to 7 hours but it seems to "keep the schedule". Any tips here?

On the flip side, during the day, I may want to just turn it off. There's no off button on the phone app and the power button on the light refuses my commands. It seems like when it's in "schedule mode" the buttons don't want to do anything you want it to do.

I've tried the override (day and night button combinations) but it eventually goes back to schedule mode.

Thanks in advance!
