The display will go the step 2 setting. It will repeat in the same way as the step 1. After
you program enough steps for your recipe, you can program the rest of the steps of E0X
to t and set t0X to zero.
The temperature setting will not be changed if SET is not pressed (confirmed). After
programming the necessary steps for cooking, you can finish programming by pressing
the SET continuously until it passed T06 and display the current temperature. You can
also leave the controller alone. The display will return to the normal display mode if no
key is pressed within 15 seconds.
The initial program setting for the controller is listed in
Table 1. This program will control the temperature of the cabinet at 120 °F for 2 hours.
Then, change the temperature to 190 °F. It will stay at 190 °F until internal temperature of
the meat reaches 160 °F. Then, the controller will drop the temperature to 130 °F for 30
hours, waiting for you to pick up the food. If you set C03=0 and t03=0, when meat
internal temperature reaches 160 °F, the controller will shut off the heater, flashing END
on both windows, and turn on the beeping alarm to notify you that cooking is finished.

The smoker generator power is controlled by parameters R1 and R2 which can be
accessed by code 166 (see section 7). The generator can be turned on for two steps. R1
is for the first step. R2 is for the second step. e.g. To turn on the smoker generator at step
1 and 3, set R1=1 and R2=3. If you only want to use one step, set either R1 or R2 to 0,
and set the other one to the step you want to turn on the smoker generator. The initial
setting for the controller is to turn on the generator at step 1 only.
4. Check the current step and display the time
To check which step the program is at during cooking, press the
“+”
Key (8) once. The
left window will show the current step in the form of P0X on. e.g. It will display P03 if the
controller is at step 3. The display will return to the temperature display automatically
after 8 seconds. To check how long the controller has been running since powered up,
press the
Time
key (9) once. The
Timer status indicator
will light. The right window will
