2) When the cooker consumes more power than controller can handle, for example, if
you have a 12A, 120V AC heater and your cooker contains more than 38 Liter (10 Gallon)
of water. It might take more than 90 minutes of full power heating for controller to heat up
the pot. Powering at full power for a long time may cause the controller overheating. You
can set the output to 80%. It will prevent the controller from over heat by staying a full
power too long. For details, please see Appendix 1.
Note 14. Temp Unit:
You can set the display either Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F).
Note 15. Probe calibration offsets:
These parameters are used to make the input
offset to compensate for the error produced by sensor. e.g. if the temperature displays of
cabinet probe (Probe 1) is 2°C in ice water mixture, set
Probe1 Offset
= -2 will make the
display show 0 degree. Three offset parameters are available for three probes.
Probe1
Offset
is for cabinet probe (Probe 1);
Probe2 Offset
is for food internal probe (Probe 2);
Probe3 Offset
is for Probe 3.
Note 16. Probe3 Enabled:
Probe 3 Readout Option. When this option is set to “Yes”, the
bottom parameter in normal display mode will show the temperature of probe 3. When
this option is set to “No”, that location will show the current power output percentage
instead. Please check section 3.1 for details.
Note 17. P3 ALM-TYPE:
Probe 3 alarm type options. This parameter is for
Probe3 Hi
Alarm
in Control Config menu. Users can set this probe 3 alarm to be absolute high
alarm (ABS) or derivation high alarm reference to probe 1 reading temperature (DEV).
For example, for Probe3 Hi Alarm = 300 and P3 ALM-TYPE = ABS, when probe 3
reading temperature is over 300, probe 3 alarm will be triggered. For Probe3 Hi Alarm =
10 and P3 ALM-TYPE = DEV, when probe 3 reading temperature is 10 degree higher
than current pit probe reading temperature (probe 1 temperature), probe 3 alarm will be
triggered.
Note 18. P3 ALM-CTL:
Probe 3 alarm output control options. This parameter controls
the output for Probe 3 Hi Alarm. It can be set as ALM, OUT-PAU and Both.
If
P3 ALM-CTL = ALM (Default)
when probe 3 high alarm is triggered, the built-in buzzer
will be triggered and you will see the flashing alert on the display.
If
P3 ALM-CTL = OUT-PAU
, when probe 3 high alarm is triggered, the main heater
output will be disabled temporarily. Once probe 3 alarm is cleared, the main heater
output will resume. Even if you press down arrow key to mute the alarm, the main heater
output will still be disabled until the probe 3 alarm is cleared.
If
P3 ALM-CTL = Both
when probe 3 high alarm is triggered, the built-in buzzer will be
triggered and you will see the flashing alert on the display. The main heater output will be
disabled temporarily. Press down the arrow key to mute the buzzer, but the main heater
