Yesterday was a nice warm day here and our house temperature rose to ~80F. As expected, the temperature in our tank went up slightly above setpoint.
What I noticed when this happened is that the conductivity reading dropped (unexpected). I had temperature compensation set on Temperature 1.
With this setting I would have thought the conductivity reading would have been temperature compensated and would remain stable as temperature changes. I would have also thought that conductivity would increase with increased temperature.
What I did was change the temperature compensation to manual 25C, where I last calibrated the probe at. This change is reflected on the graph as the sharp increase in conductivity just after 9PM. This seams to have held a better reading, not affected by tank temperature.
Am I miss understanding the temeprature compenstation setting?
