Do not ever unplug the fixture from the control box while they are powered up on any generation fixture.

I'm thinking about purchasing the 48" 8 bulb Hybrid wifi powermodule. I must be overlooking the overall dimensions of the light housing on the ATI America site.
Can someone provide to me the outside to outside dimensions of the 48" 8 bulb fixture? I would be running this in an open top canopy. Been reading that it is a PAR monster. So do others run their light much higher over the tank vs. 6-8" like other T5 kits? Thanks in advance for the insight. |

Hi Keith,
Is there anywhere you know of where PAR output measurements are available for the 4x24w LED hybrid? Been trying to figure out what kind of PAR I'm getting over my tank, but without a par meter it's kind of guess work whether my acros are getting blasted with light or not. Thanks

It's a shallow SPS tank. 30x20x14.
Currently I'm running T5 (2b+ 1 purple+ 1 Coral+) on 100%. Leds are as most on 50%. (Had them on 65% before) Light is around 10" above surface.

I can’t imagine you wouldn’t have plenty of light. If the corals look good I wouldn’t sweat it.

@Keith@ ATI NA can I remove the power cord from the side of the fixture. I don’t see anything saying you can’t but I’m also not seeing anything say you can either. Thanks

Where the power cord meets the fixture it came attached but appears screwed on. I want to place the light in a canopy I’m making and being able to unscrew the cord from the fixture would change the design of the canopy. Don’t worry it will be very well ventilated lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Earlier someone in this thread said they had added Reefbrite XHO to their Hybrid
I just had a new 60" x 8 bulb hybrid wifi fixture today to replace my current 60" Powermodule with 60" reefbrite The number one reason I upgraded was to be able to ditch the Reefbrite XHO as its ugly as sin sitting on the beautiful fixture and above my ELos 150 XL. Does anyone have any experience with this? I was really hoping to only have the fixture hanging and not have to add a secondary light source My Powermodule is 8-10 years old and I thought it was time for an upgrade I grow SPS with a few softies on the sand and am excited to get this new unit hanging I did have a 24" over my Elos 50 but it was not so great, the LEDs rusted and stopped working entirely but of course the T5 worked flawlessly. Ive been an ATI guy for a long time, I even have their Cone skimmer !

Anyone know how to set the T5s to "manual" to burn in? NOT via the computer interface.
Got my new unit--non-wifi--up and running and just put the tubes in. I found a cheat Sheet on how to program using the brick from a UK website (I have Macs so am using the buttons to program) but, when it comes to the T5 channels, it warns to run in "manual" to burn in the bulbs before implementing the dimming function. However, they don't state how to do this and I don't see the option anywhere. Right now, I just set it to run at 255 for 4 hrs and set a program point a minute before and after at 000. Is this sufficient? Figure if it dims it will be a quick dim (60 secs).

I am looking into buying the ATI 48" wifi powermodule. I have the RS reefer 350 - so about 70 gal tank. According to the ATI website, the 4xT5 should be enough power, but ....
I noticed most of you seem to be using the 8 x T5 versions. The price difference between the 4 x and 8 x is not much. Could I buy the 8 x, but use only four or six T5s if needed? Would that work? Anybody can come up with a reason why I should not do it? |

Does anyone know which lamps are connected to which ballasts in the fixture? I'm not sure which generation my light is. Maybe @Keith@ ATI NA ?
Channel 1 as far as I can tell is lamps- 1,2,7 & 8. Channel 2 is- 3,4,5, & 6. 5 and 6 are not working. I'm wondering which lamps are connected to which ballast. Are there four ballasts inside the fixture. 2 lamps on each ballast?

While this video is for the T5 only Powermodule, the process is the same. Also, while not stated be sure you remove the cover on the ballast so it can fit just like the one you pull out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qABYQiRLO6k&t

@Keith@ ATI NA
I am missing the screws for the shield so I ordered this. https://store.atinorthamerica.com/co...nt=33285696961 I received just one screw and a female threaded piece that I didn't need. Are both screws the same for each end of the shield? Should I have ordered two packages?

Sorry I have one more question. I cannot find the cord to connect the controller to my computer. Can I order that from the ATI website?
I manually programmed the LEDS and I think I'm happy with it for the most part. I have the 60" … not sure either Gen 1 or Gen 2. I don't believe these T5s dim. If I want Channel 1 to be on from 2pm to 730pm, would this be how you would program? 1400- 0 , 1600- 255, 1930- 0 ? It seems that as soon as the controller goes to say- 1 or above. The T5s come on. I guess I could set the first time point a minute before? So say 1559- 0, then 1600- 255? Then 1930- 0? Does that make sense? Does it matter which way? Thanks!
