pool light steady color / changing color

[Cloudbusting]

Turning pool light on: stays on green

Then turning light off and back on: light starts changing color rainbow style.

Trying light to default to rainbow style. don't know name or brand of light.

Any ideas?

Not knowing what brand/model light you have, I'll offer up a Pentair Intellibrite manual. If you look at page 2 and 3 it explains how many times to flip the wall switch to get a certain light/sequence. Give it a try maybe we'll get lucky and it'll work?

it works kinda like the pentair model (thank for the PDF!) but always defaults to full white initially... maybe I will have to open that light and see what's in there...

That pdf says it'll do that.

Powering on the light
When the IntelliBrite® LED light is powered on, a momentarily white light will illuminate, followed by the previously
selected color.
Note: If power to the light is off for more than five seconds, the last color show mode or fixed color that was saved
will be displayed.

Hopefully you're a bit closer to figuring it out.

thanks Hawk... I'll run more experiments today with and without powering down for 5 secs and will report back
