Anyone have the RKE and have it up and running? The RK2 was so easy to set up, the RKE is a PITA!

I have no idea what the Hysteresis setting does, when setting up a PH outlet for a Calcium reactor. I had this set to turn on at 6.80 and go off at 6.60 on the RK2 and have no idea ho to do this on the RKE.

The user guides are kind of useless IMO, the RK2 was much more user friendly. Any help would be great
 
The DA forum is where I found the most help.

Hysteris they explain as;

"An explanation of hysteresis:

The basic rule of thumb for hysteresis is this: split the number in two and add 0.1 to it.

Here is an example:
Target: 77.0
Hysteresis: 0.6 (range is 0.3 on either side of the target)
On When: Low

The value of the channel will stay on/off while inside the range made by the hysteresis. This range will have a low point of 76.7 (turns on at 76.6) and a high point of 77.3 (turns off at 77.4).

Also note that because we split the hysteresis in half, odd numbered values will be rounded down. This means a hysteresis of 0.1 will act like 0.0."
