To set the setpoint to 475 deg F, simply hold down the

keys for 10
seconds until the Utility LED blinks off three times. It will blink off after one second to
show the setpoint capture, it will blink off again after 3 seconds to show the restoration of
a 225 deg F setpoint, and it will blink off again after 5 seconds to show the setting of the
setpoint to 475 deg F. Anytime the setpoint is set to 475 deg F (max temp) the yellow led
will blink about once every 2 seconds. Ten seconds after your last key press, the white
Utility LED will quickly flicker to show that your setting has been stored. This ensures
that the setpoi

because it still introduces oxygen to the fire. The factory default setting for the open lid
detect is enabled so you must disable this feature if you have problems with excess air
currents in your pit.
11.1. Open Lid Detect
!
Overshoot Eliminator
When the open lid detect is enabled, the rate of temperature rise of your pit will be
limited preventing over-firing. This will make a typical startup to a temperature of 250
deg F take a minimum of about 20 minutes and will help to eliminate startup overshoot.
11.2. Open Lid Detect Configuration
When your NanoQ is shipped from the factory, the default setting is open lid detect on.
You must disable this feature if you have problems with excess air currents in your pit.
To disable open lid detect hold the
D O W N
key for one second while applying power.
To re-enable open lid detect, hold the
UP
key for one second while applying power.
This setting will be stored for the next time you power up.

th a wide variety of bbq
pits by continually learning what your pit is doing and adapting to many factors such as
outside air temperature, amount of charcoal, damper settings, etc. For the NanoQ to work
properly and determine how to adapt, the temperature inside the pit cannot be oscillating
up and down and the lid must stay closed. If you open the lid often, especially on startup,
the control cannot be expected to maintain setpoint. If you leave the lid closed for approx
10-20 minutes, the temperature will become stable after the control adapts. If the lid has
been shut for at least 20 -30 minutes and you notice the temperature going up and down
