Can someone help with the Osix programming? I’ve been using the default Helios preset but want to throttle the controls to mimic my Radions or making it more blue. I’m either too stupid or this app sucks big time! I’ve read the manual (horrible) and can’t seem to change 2 channels during the time interval that I wanted.

I’m totally frustrated that I actually want to toss this $3500+ lighting system and just buy Radions. I was too stupid and bought 2 more OR4, again big mistake on my part.

Can someone with OR3/4 and OSIX help?
Thanks in advance.
 
Thanks. I’ve managed to get my 2 channels (Blue Plus) to turn on at 100% during my ramp-down period for more pop. It took me an hour! The app is super painful to configure! I had to do each Osix (I have 2) at a time. The longest part was selecting the time (can’t really select it on a tiny screen).

Orphek: if you’re reading this, please enhance your app. The gear is good but the app is a total letdown — if I find a good deal on Radions, I will still swap out my lights due to the crappy app!
 
Still no good - the Play (preview) is too slow and even so, it does not reflect the channel & intensity I’ve set.

Basically, I want to turn off all channels except 2&4 from 4pm-9pm — no dice! I gave up for now!$$@

Ok — the Program tab was very cumbersome so I’ve used the Simple preset, which you can change the intensity across 2 Osix controllers and 12 light bars. Basically, it will start at 20%, ramp up & down to 80% peak, and ramp down to just 4 bars (Blue Plus) from 4pm-9:30pm. Will see how things go when I get home; but logically, this should work.

Hope Osix users out there will find it useful…
