The PID is showing constant output to the SSR. I don't think the components are the problem. I don't know what I'm doing and I think it's programming. That's where I need some education. It didn't look that hard at first. Years ago I had a good grasp on electronics but this has surpassed me. It...
I am new to your forum and though I drink a beer or two I do not brew. I do smoke a lot of meats. I need help with a PID I'm trying to attach to my smoker. I've tried by the manual and looking around the inet. What I am trying to do is when the temp drops on the smoker I want the fan to come on...
