Understanding The Control Board - Pit Boss Pro Series Assembly And Operation Manual

UNDERSTANDING THE CONTROL BOARD

This P.I.D. (proportional-integral-derivative) digital Control Board is very much the same as the controls on your kitchen oven. The
main advantages are the ability to automatically compensate for the different ambient conditions and fuel types.
IMPORTANT: The temperature inside of any grill will vary greatly from location to location. Even instruments
calibrated together may not agree with each other.

plug-in port (MPC). Use the Controller Knob to set the Programmable Meat Probe temperature.
Press the Controller Knob again to confirm and exit the Programmable Meat Probe settings.
2. Press and hold this button for three seconds to activate a manual continuous feeding of pellets to
the fire pot. Releasing the button will stop the manual feeding of pellets. This can be used to add

more fuel to the fire before opening the barrel lid, resulting in a quick heat recovery. It can also be
used while smoking, to increase the intensity of clean smoke flavor. This feature was requested
from competition cookers.
The Controller Knob is used to increase, decrease, and select a setting value. Rotate the Controller Knob
to select the time, temperature, or step in an active settings menu. Push the Controller Knob to confirm
the chosen value.
