So I have my apex el all set up, but I can’t figure out how to manipulate the outlets from the dash. I see each outlet, with an on-off toggle, but they are grey and I can’t do anything with them. How would I go about turning equipment on/off from the dash?

Click the down arrow next to your user name

Change "Add Covers" setting to "Never"

Finally, Save changes by clicking on the orange cloud at the top..

and you are all set...

If you are on a phone, they put a "cover" over each one, so if your hand slips, you don't power the whole tank down. If you touch the right side where the vertical bar is and drag, it "uncovers" and you can flip that switch.

If you really hate it, there is a setting to turn it off. Just don't power your tank down accidentally.

I actually find it handy. When I'm mucking about, I uncover only the outlet I want to work on, then I can't fatfinger the wrong thing that is usually the very next one down. :)

Yup as mentioned they are cover for when your on a touchscreen device to prevent any accidental presses.

You can either turn them all off in the settings, open/close them all from the main page, or just open each one individually with a swipe.

I never used them and would always inadvertently turn things on or off when on my mobile(I always had them to never be used). Turned them on a few weeks ago(actually forgot about the covers), and haven't had a mishap since. While I do not like them, they do serve a very good purpose.
