I think I may have bought the wrong conrtoller, looks the same as the stc but is doesnt have that decal on the front, it also reads in farenheit. the wiring sticker says loading 1,2 ; power supply 3,4; function control 5,6 ; temp probe 7,8. How do i hook this sucker up? not very good at electronics. Thanks
I just got one of these as well. I have a stc wired up that I have been running for 6 months. Wanted a second for my mini fridge and ordered what I thought was another STC. It reads in farenheit. The directions are horrible. Mine read different than yours. Power supply is 1/2. I have black from source to 1, white from source to 2. 3/4 are temperature probe, check probe installed and sitting a bottle of water. It says function control is 4/5, WTF? I have nothing to terminal 5. 6/7 are switch to load. I have black from source to 6. black from terminal 7 to outlet. White from source and green(bare) from source to outlet. The thing I like about this controller is I can switch it to control the outlet to heat or cool by switching the HC setting. The problem i am having is it doesn't turn the damn refrigerator on consistantly. I have it set for 50* and it is clearly reading a temp of 60* inside refrig. but the light doesn't blink for the compressor delay and the damn thing comes on when it wants. I think it might me faulty. I ordered 2 of them going to switch in the other one tomorrow. Oh, it handles 10A just like the STC controller
