Lights not working on Red Sea Max Nano after UK summer time click change

The lights may not be working on the Red Sea Max Nano after the UK summer time change because the lighting schedule is time-based. If the time on the control device (smartphone, tablet, or computer) is not updated to reflect the daylight saving time change, the programmed lighting times may no longer align correctly with the actual time, causing the lights to appear off at expected times. Adjusting the time settings or reprogramming the schedule in the “myAI” app may resolve the issue.
