is for the meat internal temperature measurement (Probe 2). It needs to be plugged to
the bottom sensor jack at the back of the controller. The tips of the probes are dropped
into the damper hole. Place a piece of tape on the top of the smoker tower to hold them
in place. The tip of Probe 1 should be placed close to the food but high enough so that it
does not touch the food. (See Figure 3). The tip of Probe 2 should be inserted into the
meat.
Figure 3. Sensor position. Left, the sensor should be placed close to the food but high enough so that it
does not touch the food. Right, hold the sensor in place by a piece of tape.
The following wiring examples are based on Bradley smokers. For other brand smokers,
if your smoker comes with an analog heat level dial, you can directly hook up the power
cord of your smoker to the heater output outlet on the back of this controller. Then
change the heat level to the max. For details, please see figure 5 below. If your smoker
comes with a digital control panel which will be reset automatically if there is no power,
you need to make a modification in your smoker to bypass its internal digital control
panel, then hook up the internal heating element directly to the back of the controller. For
questions, please contact Auber customer support.
For the “Original” and stainless steel Bradley smoker, the temperature heat control
switch on the smoker tower should be set to the Hi position (most right).
There are several ways to connect the controller and Bradley Smoker.
