I think maybe the fan does not turn on until it needs to be on. There could be a temperature sensor. If the unit is not warmth it makes sense that the fan is off Is the fan 2, 3, or 4 wires? If 3 or 4 then this means one wire is a tachometer used for speed feedback, and they would not have that

On the dura, is the issue that it just moves the decimal instead of converting the values? That's just a parameter change. I don't recall the dura using tc controls, i thought those started with td? I may be wrong, it's been a while since i saw one of those in the wild. Phil T. The Feral Engineer

Nope. Not naïve. Since we can read the status of the indicators as an 'out' something just needs to be changed to be able to set/reset that indicator. The 'out' value is likely read by the button press to know which axis to touch off. In Delphi or Lazarus Object Pascal the code to do thi
