Hi Roberto,
I just updated to the DevLib 1.0 and tried the wizard.... very nice. Question though, I setup the aquarium heater with the on and off temps. Which temp probe is used?

T1 by default, but you can change it.
This line is what defines the probe:

I am getting an error on all temp ports regardless of which one I plug a probe into, any ideas?

Try one at a time, but you need to reboot the controller everytime you plug a probe to make sure it is picked up by the controller.

Just figured that out, thank you. I see that the code lists a Temp probe and a separate overheat probe that is also defaulted to T1. Could I change the overheat probe to T2 and use the second probe to monitor the temp of my lights and bring on a fan to cool them down?

Yeah
You can pick whichever probe you want for temp probe and for overheat probe
