Hi all,
I bought and installed a Dixell XR02CX thermostat.
manual: http://www.weissinstruments.com/dixell/pdf/XR02CX.pdf
should I calibrate it before using?
how do I do this? standard thermometers are never completely accurate. Or did I misunderstand this?
a second question:
as I understand, if I want to ferment at 20°C and my "Differential" is 2°C
then the temp will move between 22°C and 20°C (in practice probably even 23°C-19°C due to probe sensitivity). Is this what it means ?
so what would be a good setting for the Diff ?
what temp swings still allow for healthy fermentation?

First probe calibration: (-9.9÷9.9°C) allows to adjust possible offset of the first probe.

a second question:
Differential: (0,1°C ÷ 25°C) Intervention differential for set point. Compressor Cut IN is SET
POINT + differential (Hy). Compressor Cut OUT is when the temperature reaches the set point.
