I got my ranco thermostat and heat tape in the mail today. I pluged in the thermostat and saw alot of difrrent things i can change through setup. All of these Weird things like S1 mean nothing to me, Ive tryed to read the directions but they sound like complete jibberish to me, How do i set it up to be 95F?

S1 is the temperature that you would like for the thermostat to maintain.
DIF1 is how many degrees you would like the thermostat to vary before it turns on again.
C1/H1 is what you would like the thermostat to do, either heat or cool. So in our case we would want H1 so that the thermostat turns the mat on to heat up the tank.

To set up the thermostat:

Step 1: Press the SET key to select how you would like to read your temperature F/C.

Step 2: Press SET to get the blinking S1, select what temperature you would like the thermostat to heat too, 95F.

Step 3: Press SET to get the blinking DIF1, select how much you would like to have the thermostat vary before turning on again. I have mine set to 2.

Step 4: Press SET and select H1 to tell the thermostat to heat to 95F
