Power tripped. Switched it on then went to garage to get chlorine for pool. Fermenting fridge temp control pid relay was oscillating at 50hz, smoke escapes, and garage smelled like burnt electronics. I think i know why, but will reserve comment for now. If any one has spare for like 2 or 300 bucks, i would love to know. Until then. Beer making has been suspended till end march

The controller. It still displayed the temp, but the relay was oscillating. Hope the fridge made it. The only thing inside is the home made wine i'm trying to save.
And i do not not have allgrain equipment yet. So only thing i can do is cans for now. I will try and source an industrial urn end of march, along with a new pid.

Ok so i've got an stc 200. The one that usually ships with the grainfather
Problem is it is wired for heat. Ie, it switches on when current temp is below the set temp. Once it goes over, then it switches off.
So i opened it, and it has 3 pins. Pin 2 comes from the plug, and current out is on pin 1.
Is it safe to assume i can move pin 1's wire to pin 3?
I suspect it might work the same as stc1000?
