Chamber heater settings question

I’ve added a DIY chamber heater based on a bath heater.
- I have a temperature sensor on above toolhead 0 (sensor pin PF4);
- a sensor in front of the heater (sensor pin PF5);
- a 12V fan connected to PE5;
- a 40A SSR connected to PA2 and to the heater.

My printer.cfg settings are:
[temperature_sensor chamber]
sensor_type: ATC Semitec 104GT-2
sensor_pin: PF4

[heater_generic chamber_heater]
gcode_id: chamber_heater
heater_pin: PA2
smooth_time: 10
sensor_type: ATC Semitec 104GT-2 #PT1000
sensor_pin: PF5
#control: pid
#pid_kp: 24.750
#pid_ki: 2.578
#pid_kd: 59.400
pwm_cycle_time: 0.25
min_temp: 0
max_temp: 200
max_power: 1.0

[heater_fan chamber_heater_fan]
pin: PE5 #Fan 1 12V
heater: chamber_heater
heater_temp: 40


and "True" to
variable_chamber_heater_control_external_heater: True


Is it correct that if I set the target for chamber heater to 60°C when the sensor in front of the heater reaches 60°C sets the heater power to 0%?
I would expect to see 0% when the top sensor reaches 60°.
