MYPIN PID's

[Scutlebut]

Sorry for the confusion I labeled my last post as INKBIRD PID's and they are MYPIN. I have finished building an electric brewery (Kal clone) but bought these MYPIN TA series long before the decision. I'm hoping someone has come across this issue I'm having, been looking on here and other sites for a couple days now, so it's time to pose the question.

They come with the default being a K type sensor so I changed them to RTD in the setup and the first one was off by about 5' so adjusted it with the offset and is good. The second one I changed to RTD and the temp readout is at - 420' I can change it back to K and it's alot closer to the actual air temp, the offset is not great enough to adjust it from - 420. So has anyone run across this before and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Fred.

sounds like its either a bad sensor or its miswired.

Try switching RTD sensors?

Got it guys, sheeesh. Tried the guys thoughts on maybe a bad sensor swapped out with others and was determined they were OK. Did continuity test from the one that worked and matched to the others, turns out I had one wire on the wrong pin on the two that were reading wrong, took them apart resoldered to correct pins and the smile on my face said it all. Thanks guys for your input and sorry for the delay in getting back, been busy at work.
