Neptune Apex Controlling Kessil AP9X.

Hello,
I am thinking of getting more familiar with my Neptune Apex and what it can do for my system. Right now I just use it as a fancy power strip with some monitoring. I recently added a Neptune Trident which after some trouble shooting the hardware now is working out well. Just learned how to hack it thanks to this site and some youtube videos to adjust the schedule. Now for my next attempt, which I am on the fence about, I wanted to set up the Apex to control my Kessil lights since using the kessil app is a bit of a pain. I was wondering if using the Neptune might work out better. If any of you have experience with this I would appreciate any information or feedback.
Thanks,

Gerry
 
No experience with it, but you need a cable to plug the light into the apex.

I just ordered it and can let you know how it goes.
If you have an ap9x or 360x with wifi dongle, you can do a direct wifi connection with apex.

Using that cable for 0-10v control will not allow you to adjust the additional color channels (violet, red, green). This is more for the a360we, 160, and 80 lights which don't have those other channels.

I set it up once but went back to the app. I liked having different saved modes readily available and the acclimation mode when I add new corals to high par areas.
