[URGENT] Tank sitter put K7 V3 on manual mode and the controller won't set it to auto!

[EqualityAlwaysWins]

Hi all! My tank sitter stupidly turned my K7 V3 off using its buttons. I walked them through setting up auto mode on the controller (k71 -> auto -> SPS/LPS -> long press enter). However, the tank lights are on full intensity before they're even supposed to turn on.
What did I do wrong? Please save my corals!

I can't answer that, but you should probably have them turn the lights off, so as not to fry anything before you get an answer and sort it out.

I fly back Tuesday night so I can do that worst case. Hopefully a 3 day blackout won't kill anything.

Sorry, I got bombarded with messages yesterday and didn't see this thread.
Solution 1: Let the tanksitter control the lighting time every day
Solution 2: Ask the tanksitter to check the time point of LPS/SPS, copy it down and post it here (I can help you diagnose)
Don't worry,your tank will be fine

I was able to walk the tank sitter through getting it back onto LPS/SPS preset thanks to @noopsyche 's help!
