So, I installed a PMK, went through the setup instructions and the sensor reads between 0 and 7. I have rebooted, deleted and reinstalled the module several times. I have tried several different ports. On the last try, before I plugged in the probe to the module, I noticed the module was sending readings in the 200+ range to the apex. The second I plugged in the sensor it went immediately to zero and stayed there. I need this stupid thing to work as I am trying to replace my lights with some xr30g4pros this weekend and I don't want to smoke my corals. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
 
So, the strangest thing occurred. I plugged in my XR30G4pros to try and struggle through that install, and I swear the second I plugged them in I started getting a PAR reading. I had an Apogee rented from BRS a month or so ago and the numbers I am getting seem way high, but it is still a value that I can compare to.
