K7 V3 User Discussion Thread-Frequently Asked Questions

It is already paired..thats my problem. I have three lights on K7-1. Cant figure out how to put 1 of the lights on the other channel.
Just click the button to put it back into program mode. Then open K72 and click H.
 
Nope. I am checking someting..it look like if I push the right button on my 75, it switches the spectrum. Wondering if this is the K7-2 schedule...gotta experiment.
You choose K72 on the controller. The light just needs the "indicator light" flashing blue.

Thats the thing. i ant get it back into indicator flashing mode. Goes to red.
I was having this problem the other day. I don't remember what I did to get it into program mode.
 
I don't know anything about the buttons on the 75 watt light, but if you have it running on the K71 schedule right now (solid blue light) you should just have to press whichever button puts it into pairing mode (blue flashing light) which is the left button on the 140 watt light.
It shouldn't be any different then how you paired the lights when you first got them.

If the issues is that you have the lights in some setting mode by pressing the wrong button(s) I wonder if powering them off and back on would get them back to their "default" mode?

The 75 should be the same.
 
I assumed but I wasn't sure if it just had a left and right button the same as the 140
If I recall correctly (I guess I could walk in there and verify) it has two. The Pro II only has 1 button.
 
When i hold button til it blink blue...it changes the color channel. Again..not sure if it is not keyed into channel K7-2 or if it is cycling from sps, LPs, SPS/LPS.

If the indicator is blinking blue, go to K72 program and select H. See if it works.
 
I figured it out last night. Ironically (or is it coincidentally)..I dont like it so I am going to go back to my original schedule. :eek:
But at least you figured it out! I decided to give my Pro II another shot at pairing with the V3 controller the other day again... It works but not correctly. I have to run them on their own controllers.

Running two of the new V3’s on a 120x50x50 and have set them to run the default LPS setting for now slightly turned down - curious as to how others have these set with similar sized tanks - mostly soft corals with LPS

I am running a T5 hybrid. I had to turn mine down..way down...as I was blasting too much PAR at my corals. I have 4x54 T5s and running 2 140 watters and 1 75 watter at max 20%. More than enough light for my corals. Once I brought these down..tank is doing fantastic.
