Dial-in Temp with Apex?

[jkobel]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the Apex world and wondering if I can get this better. I'm running two 250w heaters in my sump of a RS625. I'm trying to get my temp to be right at 78. Whats the best way to set this up to keep the temp consitent?

I an VERY new to Apex, so if there are suggestions and you could share the code you used I would appreiate it :)

Thanks!

on the outlet that heater is plugged into set the code as follows. one degree temp change is fine, if you do want it to run closer then set the on temp closer to the off point. I wouldn't go anything less than .5 a degree.

set off
fallback off
if temp <77.0 then on
if temp >78.0 then off

are you running both heaters on the same EB832 socket or are you using 2?

I would suggest running an inkbird with your heater so your apex does not wear out the heater plug faster than the other plugs by constantly turning it on and off.

I did. I fought it for so long but finally broke down and pulled the trigger. New tank, new gear!

Two sockets
