Re: Temp 3 displaying inaccurately

Are the temperatures that are showing in your second screen shot what is now showing on the thermometer dials on the home page? According to the data grid, most of the temps are 51/52 degrees. Is that what your current ambient temp is?

Re: Temp 3 displaying inaccurately

You say that all the other temp probes register "off the scale", but in reality, they are showing 0. A temperature of 0 usually is indicated when a sensor is not attached. Did the sensors previously register proper temperatures or is this the first time they have been attached and tested? ...

Re: Temperature Association with Digi 16

No.

Digi16 outputs cannot be used with a temp sensor and all outputs can only be actively controlled by one process at a time.

Re: Transitions between processes

Yes, look at the spawn & kill process options. When exiting a state in a process, you can start or stop other processes. This is good for chaining process control for end-to-end automation.

Re: Sight Glass Monitoring

The two power connections are for positive and negative. The device has to be powered at all times to function. The signal will be either a switched ground or a switched 5V output to signal when the level has been reached. The power requirements may not be 5V. The device could have a higher power re...

Re: Process State 0 Timer - Continue

I'm not sure I'm clear on what you're trying to do. Why would you want to take the initial value into another state? The reason for the "continue from previous state" is to keep the timer running. If you want a new initial value in the next state, just set the value the same as you did for...
