Hey all, I'm having trouble getting my 2 Ai Prime 16hds to run their schedule. I downloaded one of the recommended lighting schedules directly from AIs website. It works perfectly on my original Ai Prime (non hd) but I cant get my 16hds to do anything. When I run the "schedule preview" the...

I purchased two brand new MP40s and I’m trying to connect them in the app to the tank. I added one no issue and as I’m going to add the second one it’s now giving me problems with Bluetooth. Considering I’m trying to do this back to back with the first one and I haven’t done anything...
