Robo-Tank v6.0 is Ready - Now v6.5

Ok you have the port setup correctly. The PWM vs Analog is a hardware thing, no setting is required for that, just need the jumpers on the controller in correct position.

The lights are confusing people, I'm going to see what else I can come up with but for now this is how it works.

To see the sliders for the channels you assign you click on a mode row and it'll expand. It's important to close all modes before leaving the page otherwise it'll be in a manual mode, this is one major point of confusion.

You need a minimum of two modes. The top mode is the start of the day, the last mode is the end of the day.

The last mode as it's the end of day should be set how you want the light levels during the night, 0 usually.

The first mode time is when it'll start fading from the last mode levels so you set this to the levels you want, the end time is when it will reach those levels and the start time is when that will happen.

Here's an example.

Mode #0
Start = 10:00am, End = 11:00am LED slider level 500.

Mode #1
Start = 1:00pm, End = 2:00pm LED slider level 2000.

Mode #2
Start = 5:00pm, End = 6:00pm LED slider level 4095

Mode #3
Start = 7:00pm, End = 8:00pm LED slider level 2000

Mode #4
Start = 9:00pm, End = 10:00pm LED slider level 0

That would start the day at 0 and at 10:00am it would ramp up to 500 level by 11:00am, then it would stay at that level until 1:00pm and start ramping up to 2000 level by 2:00pm and continue until the end, then repeat.
