I’m new to to Apex and Radion. I have the Gen 6 and I’m using the MXM module as well as Mobius.

The tank has been running about a month and I haven’t had the lights on as of had no corals in it. I look at the Mobius app and I see acclamation setting and I have it set for that just so I can put some light on and see how they work.

However, I see where I can adjust the light cycle, and it doesn’t seem to take.

Whenever I switch Apex to either auto, or on, lights will always go on, even if it’s outside the lighting schedule. Here are a couple of the screenshots from my Apex.

Appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.

Thats a plug on the EB832, you need to add the tile for the Radion from the MXM. The way you're doing it now is just turning the power on and off for the radion. You will create the light cycle via Fusion, the cycle in the MXM is the fallback for the Apex.

I believe I do have the tile set up.

The guy at the store that I purchased everything from said that you don’t set the time on fusion that’s only if you’re using something like a T5 fixture and that you set the schedule on Mobius.

I'm running the same set up but with 6 radions. If no one steps you through the process today, I can help you once I get home.

Start with adding the Radion in mobius then linking the MXM

The mobius to MXM is pretty easy and slick on the app. and yes bring down the tile from the MXM

I can't get anywhere with it.

Maybe it's the way it was set up for me in Apex. I think it is just set up as always on and then program with Mobius. However that isn't working for me.

Btw, when I look at Apex Fusion, I see two of the three devices connected to the MXM only. Not the two Radions. See attached.

I just had the guy from the store logon and do it for me. I do like the I can do everything in Fusion now, but I now dont see an option for the fan. Will this go on and off automatically as needed?
