    Frage Temperature Control Problem--please help

    Hi there and Happy New Year to all,

    I'm having a temperature control problem I'm hoping to get some help with. I have my Profilux Plus II ex set to control two heaters, and the Profilux doesn't seem to be turning them on according to the nominal temperature I set in Profilux Control, which is 25 C. I have the two heaters set on a digital powerbar on sockets S1 and S2. In the Profilux Control program they are both on Temperature 1 and Heater. At first they both worked great and did keep the set temperature, but today I noticed there was a drop in temperature of 2 degrees. I first thought that the heaters were undersized for my tank, so I unplugged one from the digital powerbar and plugged in a heater of greater wattage. At first the heater did come on, as I could see the indicator light on. Now, however, the heater has not come on and the temperature keeps dropping. I'm confused. Thinking it was a heater issue I again unplugged it from the digital powerbar and plugged it into the mains. The heater does come on, so I'm guessing it's something with the Profilux.
    Is there something I should have done differently? Any help, as always, will be greatly appreciated.

    did you check if the corresponding LED in the powerbar is on?

    Thanks so much for the reply, Matthias. The problem has been resolved--turns out I had my heaters' thermostats too closely set to the set temperature in the Profilux. I turned them up and right now all is working perfectly--the Profilux is keeping the temperature right where I set it.
