I just got my razor a day ago. My problem seems to be the preset function. The manual says when you pick a preset that it will show you what to that preset is at at that time . MI mean does not . Nor does it match the values shown in the manual . I.even. preset 2 shows in the manual a 1 percent blue channel at the beginning and the end. It never does that . I did notice the manual that came with the unit was not for a 180 watt . Is the programming different from what's stated in the manual . Has the screen changed views or funations. I ask because I can't get mine to work right

Let me elaborate further on the design of the time points.
The controller will automatically calculate the intensity of the channels based on the two closet TP's, for example, if you set the channels to run at 50% at 8:00am and 80% at 10:00am, then somewhere at 9:00am the channels would be at 65% (because 65% is midway between 50% and 80% and 9:00am is midway between 8:00am and 10:00am).
Likewise if you want the fixture to remain at a certain intensity, say 100% during noon hours, then you must set two time points at the same intensity so it will not change. So you'll need to set the intensity to 100% at two time points, 12:00pm and 4:30pm respectively.
The percentages will always be moving up and down depending on the program, this is how we gradually achieve the dusk to dawn effect. The Razor will never jump from one time point to another.
