Responding to: ???'s previous message
have a controller which is busy in temperature controlling and setting , i want that if somehow it stops working the second one should take its place for maintaning temperature
have another controller as a 'failsafe' i.e. opening the line to the heater if the temperature get too high and sounding an alarm.
