Hello I have a question about the intensity settings on the Radion. When I use the slider bar to set the intensity to 75% and look at the high point on the graph its says the intensity is 52%. Is this normal?

Yes, that’s normal. The names of the sliders are really bad. The intensity slider is the intensity of your program, not the light. The intensity on the graph is the intensity of the light. Which makes no sense right?

Think of it this way... suppose there are three LEDs on the fixture. You set two of them to 100% and one to 0%. If the intensity slider is at 100% the graph will show 66%. If the intensity slider is at 50% the graph will show 33%.

Does that help?
