Hi everyone,

Anyone has a YouTube video or easy instructions on how to setup the temp setting ? I downloaded the software on my pc and for some reason the temp is still fluctuate to high or to low.

Running a 60 cube marineland , eheim temp placed inside my corner overflow box, with a eshopps cube sump.

I have the same setup and never needed to use my computer for anything? Temp probe plugs into the unit, then you apply the temp probe to the channel outlet with the controller to whatever channel outlet you want it to monitor and plug your heater into that same channel outlet.

There is/was a hysteresis setting where you can control how much over/under it runs. I think you need to use the PC program to set it.

Maybe mines different, I set my alert via the temp probe with a range of 1 or 2 degrees (cant remember) to turn off my heater and lights; never used a computer.

OK, didn't know you could do it on the controller. I just knew it was a setting :) That's the one I'm talking about.
