I am posting this for anyone that has had issues with this controller and the RIMS for dummies thread found elsewhere on this website. I followed the rfd setup only to find out that the 4342 PID will not run a solid state relay. The only deviance from the original plans was that I used a 25 amp SSR instead of the 20 amp SSR shown.
After a few emails with the Auber customer service, the lady got me down the right track, which is that the PID can run an element as long as it is under 10 amps. Otherwise you need a 4352 PID for an SSR setup.
This isn't intended to bash the Rims for dummies setup, but I am a complete newb when it comes to electronics and I wanted to put this out there for any other idiots like me.
Major props to the customer service at Auber. They were helping me via email throughout the weekend and were both knowledgeable and patient.
I'll post pics of my setup once I get it running, should be in a couple days.
