What is Hysteresis?

[Reefrookie733]

Hey all,
If I am reading everything out there correctly, I believe this setting is for a time allowance if a certain temperature has been hit to essentially have a "cool down" period???
I have mine set on my tank for 30:00 does that mean minutes?

Thanks
Wes

Yes, Hysteresis is the number of minutes:seconds that the output must remain off before being allowed to turn back on. Read my tutorial on Apex Control Types to see where the Hysteresis gets translated into actual program code:

Thanks sun. I have an older model apex that works fine but I have never really played around with the settings once I got them setup about where i wanted them.
