8th outlet not turning on heater
Re: 8th outlet not turning on heater
Currently the temperature is at 72.5 and the outlet is still not on
Re: 8th outlet not turning on heater
I guess i will set it at 72.5 and see if that works. i thought I could put it a say 10 degrees and anywhere from 10-78 it would still be on. I guess it has to be set at the temperature it will actually reach down to.

Ok it fixed the problem. Thanks everyone!

That is a common error...but if that were the logic what would happen if the tank were at 68 degrees?
Edit: based on your initial example 70-78

Re: 8th outlet not turning on heater
ok so i tried to lower the on temperature and it won't work again. It seems to only work if I set the heater at the current temperature probes reading as the on temperature.
Re: 8th outlet not turning on heater
Ok, so let me try to explain this again....
The heater will only turn on when it hit the low temp setting and turn off when it hits the high temp setting.
So, until the temp goes down to 70 degress, the heater won't turn on. The minute it hits 70, it will turn on and it will not turn off until it hits 78 degrees. The minute it hits 78, it turns off and will remain off until it hits 70 degress again and the cycle repeats.
