I am a APEX Newbie and not completely computer literate. So please be easy on me. I bought a new apex during the black Friday sales along with ATK, MPR, DOS/DDR and AFS. At first I was having issues connecting to WIFI because my tank is not in my house. My wife is not a big fan of my tank so I built a building in my back yard for the 225 gal reef tank. I got a Netgear WIFI range extender and that solved the connection issues. Over the last couple days I have been able to get everything working. All probes operating good, return pump skimmer pump blue lights and white lights. But last night I tried to get refugium lights connected to the APEX. I have the lights plugged into outlet 7 per the APEX instruction but at 10:00pm they did not come on. I am looking at the outputs page and the outlet for "Output 7 – RefLight_3_7" does not show up as a matter of fact there are only 5 of the output outlets listed.
How do I get the Refugium lights on and how do I adjust the time for them?

Thank you for any help and sorry for the long story.

If 3 of the expected 8 energy bar outlets are missing from the Outputs page in Fusion, the first thing I'd probably do is check the status of the energy bar firmware on the Modules page. Even if you have an 'OK' under software version, I'd still click on it and then do a Software Update Action. This might bring your missing outlets back.

THANK YOU!!!! Even though it was shown as up to date as soon as I ran the update the rest of the outlets appear now on the outlet screen.
