How to use alarms to run a boiler

Based on the value read from a thermister I wish to activate a relay to continue a heater or turn it off until it drops below a set value. Here is the code that I thought would work based on the manual but it fails to compile.

BEGIN"config"
'Generated by new dEX-2
password=""

RA"Schedule_B"("b:",ALARMS:OV:100KB:W60,DATA:OV:1MB)2S
LOGONA 5R(II,2W,"Resistance~Ohms",=1001CV,LM,NA)

RB2S IF1(1001CV > 30)1RELAY=0 IF2(1001CV < 29) 1RELAY=1

END

Unable to puzzle my way to a version via the dEX interface. Any suggestions welcome.

This actually works

BEGIN"config"
'Generated by new dEX-2
password=""

RS1S

RA"Schedule_A"("b:",ALARMS:OV:100KB:W60,DATA:OV:1MB)2S
LOGONA
5YS04(I,4W,"YS04~degC",=1001CV,LM,NA)
ALARMR1(1001CV>21)1RELAY"hot enough"{1RELAY=0}
ALARMR2(1001CV<19)1RELAY"turn-on heater"{1RELAY=1}
END
