PROGRAMMING
CONTROLLER MODES
Pressing the mode button will cycle through the controller's available programming modes: OFF, ON, AUTO (2 triggers), TIMER TO ON, TIMER TO OFF, and CYCLE (ON and OFF).
OFF MODE
Your devices will not run while in this mode. The OFF Mode setting also serves as the minimum level the other modes will run at while triggered OFF.
MINIMUM LEVEL
Your devices will run at the level set in OFF Mode, as the minimum level, when triggered to turn OFF. These other modes include the AUTO Mode, TIMER TO ON Mode, TIMER TO OFF Mode, and CYCLE Mode. They will run continuously until triggered ON, at which point they will run at the level set in ON Mode. If you want your devices to turn off completely when they're triggered to be OFF, set the OFF Mode level to zero.
Example 1: 'OFF' mode display showing '72°F', '0-', 'SET TO 0'. Example 2: 'OFF' mode display showing '72°F', '0-', 'SET TO 3'.

AUTO MODE (HIGH TEMPERATURE TRIGGER)
Pressing the up or down button sets the high temperature trigger. The devices will activate if the probe's reading meets or exceeds this threshold. Once triggered, the devices will gradually ramp up to the level set in ON mode. If the probe's reading falls below this trigger point, the devices will gradually slow down to a stop or at the level set in OFF mode.
EXAMPLE: In this example, if you set a high temperature trigger of 75°F, then your device will activate when the temperature reaches 75°F or higher, and turn off when it falls below 75°F.

AUTO MODE (LOW TEMPERATURE TRIGGER)
Pressing the up or down button sets the low temperature trigger. The devices will activate if the probe's reading meets or falls below this threshold. Once triggered, the devices will gradually ramp up to the level set in ON mode. If the probe's reading rises above this trigger point, the devices will gradually slow down to a stop or at the level set in OFF mode.
EXAMPLE: In this example, if you set a low temperature trigger of 70°F, then your device will activate when the temperature reaches 70°F or lower, and turn off when it rises above 70°F.

TIMER TO ON MODE
Pressing the up or down button sets a countdown time. During the countdown, your device will be set to OFF. Once the timer ends, your device will trigger to turn on. If there is a level set in OFF Mode, the devices will run at that level during the countdown and when triggered to turn off.
The countdown will begin if no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds. The time left on the countdown is shown on the lower right corner of the display above the setting. Leaving the timer mode while the countdown is running will pause it until you return to this mode.
Diagrams: Controller display showing 'TIMER TO ON' mode with countdown details. Circular diagrams showing countdown progress from 'START' to 'COUNTDOWN END POINT' with 'Device ON' indicators.
TIMER TO OFF MODE
Pressing the up or down button sets a countdown time. During the countdown, your device will be set to ON. Once the timer ends, your device will trigger to turn off. If there is a level set in OFF Mode, the devices will run at that level after the end of the countdown.
The countdown will begin if no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds. The time left on the countdown is shown on the lower right corner of the display above the setting. Leaving the timer mode while the countdown is running will pause it until you return to this mode.
Diagrams: Controller display showing 'TIMER TO OFF' mode with countdown details. Circular diagrams showing countdown progress from 'START' to 'COUNTDOWN END POINT' with 'Device OFF' indicators.
CYCLE MODE (ON AND OFF)
Set an on duration and an off duration for the devices to cycle through continuously. Press the up or down button to first set a duration for the devices to activate. Then press the mode button again and set a duration for the devices to deactivate.
When the devices are activated, they will run at the level set in ON Mode. When the devices are deactivated, they will run at the level set in OFF Mode.
The countdown will begin if no buttons are pressed for 5 seconds. The time left on the countdown before the next ON or OFF phase is displayed below the current level. Leaving the cycle mode while the countdown is running will pause it until you return to this mode.
Diagrams: Controller displays showing 'CYCLE ON/OFF' mode. A circular timeline showing alternating 'ON' and 'OFF' periods, with durations like '30min.' and '1hr.'.
CONTROLLER SETTINGS
Pressing the setting button will cycle through the controller's available settings: DISPLAY, °F / °C, CALIB. T°, and TRANS. T°.
DISPLAY SETTING
Adjusts the display brightness and auto-dimming. In settings 1, 2 and 3, the display will stay at that brightness level and will not automatically dim the display. A2 and A3 will set the brightness level at 2 and 3, respectively, and will dim down the brightness level 1 when the controller is not being used after 15 seconds.
Illustration: Controller display showing '72°F', '6-', 'SET TO A3' for display setting.
TOGGLING THE DISPLAY
Lock the controller by holding the setting button. Press the setting button to turn the display off. Pressing the setting button again will turn the display back on. Programs will still run in the background while the LCD screen is off.
Illustration: Controller display showing 'ON' status and '72°F', '6-', 'SET TO 6'.
°F/°C SETTING
Changes the displayed units to Fahrenheit or Celsius. Press the up or down button to cycle through F and C. All displayed units will automatically convert when adjusting this setting.
Illustration: Controller display showing '22°C', '6-', '°F/°C', 'SET TO 5'.
CALIBRATION TEMPERATURE SETTING
Adjusts the temperature reading the sensor probe is measuring. Press the up or down button to increase or decrease the data figure in 1° increments. The calibration cycle ranges from -20°F to 20°F (or -10°C to 10°C) and will be applied to the sensor probe's measurements.
Illustration: Controller display showing '76°F', '6-', 'CALIB.', 'SET TO 4'.
TRANSITION TEMPERATURE SETTING
Adjusts how gradually your device will shift between levels when triggered ON by the AUTO Mode's temperature trigger. This will determine how much the probe temperature needs to increase to step up to the next level setting.
The higher the transition setting is, the wider the temperature gap is between levels. The lower the transition setting is, the smaller the temperature gap is between levels. If this figure is set to zero, your device will jump to your maximum level when triggered ON.
Press the up or down button to set a transition threshold between 0°F and 20°F (0°C and 10°C). When the sensor temperature first reaches or crosses the temperature trigger point, the level will increase by one (exiting OFF Mode). Each time the threshold level is crossed, the level will ramp up by one until it reaches the level set in ON Mode.
EXAMPLE: In this example, your high temperature trigger is set at 80°F, the OFF Mode level is 0, and the ON Mode level is 6. If the transition threshold is set to 0°F, then once the sensor temperature reaches or exceeds 80°F, the devices will trigger to run at level 6. However, if the transition threshold is set to 2°F, then the devices will trigger to run at level 1 when the temperature reaches or exceeds 80°F. It will then ramp up to level 2 when the temperature reaches or exceeds 82°F, level 3 at 84°F, etc. From 90°F on, it will run at level 6, the level set in ON Mode.
Diagram: A table showing 'Current Temp.' vs. 'Transition Setting = 2°F' vs. 'Level'. It lists temperatures from 80°F to ≥90°F and corresponding levels 1 to 6.
