My Auber SLY-2352 never finishes calibration.... anyone got any ideas?
It's been doing this for MONTHS. It used to DRAMATICALLY overshoot my temps (I switch the power out from my SSR between the boil kettle and HLT with a 3 way switch and manually turn it to off sometime- I now know that this confuses the hell out of the Auber PID's "Fuzzy learning algorithms" so I've been hoping that a recalibration will make it perform like it did when it was new.
When I tried this 3 months ago the calibration never finished it just boiled for over an hour and never stopped calibration. -I thought it was because it read 208F at boiling and I didn't reset the pB value so that boiling == 212F (thinking that the calibration procedure required it to hit boiling).
I've since changed my probe and it hits 212F perfectly at boiling but AGAIN the calibration procedure SEEMED to work correctly except I'm now at 56 minutes of calibration (supposed to take 10-20 minutes) and the damn thing is still running- it's been @ 212F FOREVER...
Just to make sure I scrolled through the configuration settings and At is set to "2" so it's still in calibration mode...
I'll give it 10 more minutes and if nothing changes I'm going to have to turn the pid off and back on and then manually reset at=3 if it doesn't stop on its own.
