So I have my Apex el hooked up and outlets 1 and 2 which are dedicated for lights are not being used. I have them set to auto and outlet 1 just turned on and outlet 2 is off. Both are at the factory default. Why is outlet 1 on and outlet 2 off

The factory default has one of the lights running longer than the other. It’s set up for a 2 channel T5 fixture where you would “ramp up” the lights by staggering the start up and shut down. You need to alter the programming to fit your needs.
 
Tnx. If I chose to use those outlets for something other than lights I can change that to where auto would be on correct?

It depends on what you want to do with the outlets. You can program them to do whatever you need them to do. Use the tasks function if you’re not sure what you are doing. I strongly suggest reading the APEX tutorial articles here on R2R in the articles section to learn how the programming works, it was a huge help to me.
