When using the DynaQ for the first time, begin by plugging in the pit probe. Follow by plugging in the food 
probe and the fan if they will be used before applying power. Corresponding LEDs will illuminate above the 
probe jacks to indicate that a probe is present.  

If you plug in a probe and the corresponding indicator light does not illuminate, push the probe plug all the way 
into the jack so that it snaps into place. If the indicator light still does not go on, this may indicate that you have 
a bad or erratic probe.  

The outer ring of the control will illuminate in a variety of ways to indicate the current pit status at a glance. 

 

When first bringing your pit up to temperature, the patent pending Q-shaped light ring will glow solid blue.  

If the pit temperature rises into its Smart Cook Strategy range, the outer ring will change from blue to red. The 
default strategy range is 30°F below your set temperature. For more information, see Section 10.5 Smart Cook 
Adaptive Control Strategy.
