Hi @Elco.
It is doing it now. Running in beer constant set to 20.
The Pin is high… the SSR is not on. No red led.

Send to Photon
Beer-to-Fridge integral time constant (Ti)The input error is slowly accumulated in the integrator. A steady state error that is not corrected by Kp, is corrected by the integral. The integral part grows by the proportional part every Ti seconds. If you let it grow to quickly, this can create overshoot. Be careful.

Beer-to-Fridge derivative time constant (Td)The derivative is the temperature difference per second. The derivative part of PID is -Kp * Td * dT/dt. This can be interpreted as looking Td seconds ahead. For very slow processes (like fermentation), it is recommended to disable the derivative gain by setting it to zero. The limited sensor resolution will make it hard to distinguish bit flips from rises in temperature.

Maximum difference between fridge and beer set point (= output of PID)The output of this PID is added to the beer set point to automatically set the fridge set point. You can define the maximum difference between the beer temperature setting and fridge temperature setting here.

Dead time when switching between actuatorsOnly one can be active at each moment. The dead time is the minimum to wait when switching between one actuator and another. This prevents quickly alternating between heating to cooling.
