Ghl temp control HeLP

What am I doin wrong?

I want the heaters to turn off when it gets too hot. I followed the instructions and Im not sure what I am doing wrong. I do think its wierd that I have to select “invert” to keep the outlet on though.

When say the heather did not turn off, what was the temperature where the heater was still on?

With your settings the outlet should turn on at ~77.3F of decreasing temperature and off at ~77.6F of increasing temperature. You might not see off until 77.7F is displayed though.

Invert should be off.

I put hot water in a cupand out the sensor in there and it went to 88F and the outlets didnt turn off.

I set the deviation to 3.0 degrees so I assume once it reaches 80.6 it should turn off.

I think the invert should be off as well. But if I turn it iff the outlet turns off. I dont know why. I know im doing something wrong

Operation Mode Controller.... Yours is set to off. Mine is set to Two Position. I never noticed this before but maybe try that?

Missed that, yes set the Operation Mode Controller to Two Position.

Ok tried it and still the outlet shuts off once I turn invert off.

When it turned off, what was the temperature sensor reading?

The outlet turns on with decreasing temperature. With the settings you posted the outlet will not turn on until temperature decreases to ~77.3F. It will turn off at ~77.6F on increasing temperature. Watch it for a cycle of on/off. From what I can see, off is the correct state at the moment.
