So, I am playing with my PID... on my newly updated rig. It is from Auber, the one that many other ppl are buying here.
I am happy with the performance, but I have a question about cycle times when in manual mode. It sayes that "t" is the cycle time, adjustable between .5 - 125 seconds. When "t" = 0 the cycle time is .5 seconds it sayes. So, I try 3, 4, 5... and guess what, the cycle time is ALWAYS 5 seconds. Not bad, I can still boil at 65% pretty nicely, but what gives?
I would love to cut the cycle time in half, but no matter what I set it to, it is 5 seconds or more. When I set "t"=10... it is 10 seconds... but once I get under "t"=5, it is always 5 seconds. UNLESS I set it to 0,1 or 2... THEN the cycle is 60 seconds. Why?
Here is the manual... am I missing something?
