You probably know this Philip, but that made an instant
difference. That probe is now reporting being up 100% since the
switch.

Just out of curiousity, do you have a theory on why switching
controllers makes a difference?

If it's a bit of a mystery at the controller end, is there anything we
can do to help diagnose the problem at the probe end? As you can see I
have a nicely reproducable situation if it's of use.
