Keep in mind that in stock form they can run 30 degrees over , and 30 degrees under . Some of this will depend on probe location . You're gonna be off some , just nature of the beast . Is this a 30 or a 40 ? Those numbers may have come from my original set up for a 30 . Probe centered through...

If the stock controller is analog , you should be able to set it to the max setting . Plug the smoker into the PID controller .

I don't have the wifi model , but setting at the unit itself should be the same . So not sure if this helps , but thought I would link it . A lot of basic info here . https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/setting-auber-pid-temp-time-and-other-values.318849/

Start with how it's set up . Is it in PID mode or on off mode . My guess is PID and the settings need to be adjusted . So figure out how to access the settings ( Cliff ) and see what it says . Auber lock code for setting adjustment is 166 . So push and hold the set button . Then enter the...

You could also be kicking out on the high limit switch . Don't set it that high . It will just cause you problems . Run the Auber to long in that situation will cause it to go into an open loop . Try setting it to 250 and see what it does . If you have the same results I would think the...

If the controlled source is analog , then you would turn the dial all the way up to high or max . Whatever it says . Then the Auber will control it up to its max setting .

Max temp setting is 275 . Not all the units hit 275 . The stock controller is known the have temp swings , but it's not that big of a deal as it's made out to be , in MOST cases anyway . They're good units for the price ( in this case free ) . The temp swings are manageable in my opinion . A lot...

I think that is the new setting . Used to use P = 10 . I set mine up empty . Like I said , I get the thought behind a load , but if you get it set up and dialed in the load should not matter that much in my opinion . The wattage of the element is what it is , and as long as the Controller...

It's either moisture , a bad element , or a wire rubbing ground . Look and see if the element is touching ground somewhere / resting on the lower rods Maybe when you put the inspection covers back on , something is touching / screw to long ? Whats the smoker setting on ? Just thinking out...

You have the right mind set there , good plan . Auto tune took my MES out of full power way to early . If you get to this point , we can help you . Just know what the stock settings were ( sounds like you do ) and you can always re set it . DO NOT shy away from setting it up your self . I'll...

Very true . Auto tune on my MES 30 put it way out of whack . Went thru and set everything myself . Works great .

@hkeiner , have you tried it yet ? Use it at the stock settings , empty smoker , and see what it does . Don't start making changes right off the bat . Auto tune took mine in a wrong direction . I think if you paid for a fully adjustable controller you should learn how to set it . It's not that...

I have the 1510 elpm . Not sure how that compairs to what you have . Forget the flow charts . So I'm guessing the 3D is non pid , and you are adding the Auber wifi controller ? I just looked at the instructions for the wifi model . The section you want is controller config 7.1 . Table 2 . So...
