Micromega cn77333 help?

this is the link to the PID, it's a cn77333 I bought through the classifieds section several years ago. I have it wired to power on and it reads the RTD temp but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to make it work with my SSR. I know the ssr is good because it works with my other Omega PID - a cn76020.

I feel stupid, has anyone worked with this model before ? can anyone offer some help?

See page 3 of user manual. Model number cn77333 signifies that the output of the PID is two 5 amp relays. You need 10 vdc pulsed output to drive an SSR. This would be model number cn77344. Your PID will not drive an external SSR.

well then. into the scrap electronics box it goes. thanks for the help, I will be ordering an auber I guess.

actually, screw that. I don't need a PID for my boil, I will just leave the micromega in place as a temp reader and install my old pwm in my panel. cheaper and easier. hooray laziness!

screw complex monitoring, PWM hooked up and SSR functioning properly.

I have a Watlow PID with relay output that I hacked to get a voltage pulse. I desoldered the relay and soldered in a wire connecting the line that powered the relay coil to the output. It has been working fine to drive an SSR.
