Apex Not Working Correctly

[claudiojr]

I'am having some problems with my neptune apex. Hope you may help.

1 - Chiller config is IF TEMP > 26.5 THEN ON
IF TEMP < 26.0 THEN OFF
But it doesn't work like that. It seems chiller is turned on whenever temp is higher than 26.0. How to fix it?

2 - Light config is IF TIME 08:00 TO 20:00 THEN ON
IF TEMP > 27.0 THEN OFF
MIN TIME 20:00 THEN OFF
Sometimes i arrive home and the light is OFF. Then, it suddenly turns on. Temperature never get even close to the 27.0, so i don´t know what is happening.

Thanks.

Did you switch the controllers to work in Celsius? Could be wrong but I am pretty sure they all ship out from the US set in Fahrenheit.

What is the whole advanced code for each of the outlets? Do you have a Set and a fall back for each?

What is the order of the outlets? The order matters significantly.

In your first one if it says:

IF TEMP > 26.5 THEN ON
IF TEMP < 26.0 THEN OFF
SET OFF

Last line is a theoretical example of something that might cause an issue. If the temp was above 26.5 then it would be on if all other conditions below it allowed it to be on, but in this case the Set OFF at the end trumps all other code and this outlet will always be off.(unless you set it to Manually ON)

Post the full statements and perhaps someone can be more help.

Chiller is connected to a EB8 in the Outlet 6.
Full code is:

FALLBACK OFF
IF TEMP > 26.5 THEN ON
IF TEMP < 26.0 THEN OFF

the only thing I can see is without a SET OFF, the chiller will turn on at 26.6 and will stay on all the way until 25.9. It won't only run at greater than 26.5 because once on, there's nothing turning it off until 25.9. You can try this instead:

Fallback OFF
Set OFF
If Temp > 26.5 Then ON

Then it will turn OFF at 26.5. However, it might start bouncing at 26.5, 26.6, 26.5, etc. Simply add a Defer at the end to smooth that.

Defer 5:00 Then ON
