Standard & Dual Mode
Operation
When powering off the grill, the grill will show "C 5" on the display. This is showing you the
grill is in cool down mode for 5 minutes, it will then shut off after 5 minutes.
To switch between modes, simply hold the mode button down. You will
see the decimal in the display switch from left to right. Left is Mode 1, right
is mode 2. If the grill loses power, it will default to mode 1 set at 250°F.
Press the power button to turn the grill on. To turn the grill off, the
power button must be pressed and held for 2 seconds.
PRECISION TEMP CONTROLLER
Mode 1 is the PID mode on the alpha controller. This will hold steadier temps and a more stable
fire. This mode operates off of a feed rate that the user can adjust (although most will not need to).
If you find the grill is consistently running hotter than your set point you can lower the feed rate. If
it's running consistently colder than your set point you can raise the feed rate. Always make small
adjustments when tuning your grill.
To adjust the feed rate press the MODE, UP and DOWN arrow buttons at the same time for about
2 seconds. After doing this the display will stop showing a temperature readout and will show
you what the current feed rate is instead. You can then use the Up and Down arrows to raise
and lower the feed rate. Once you have the desired feed rate, press the mode button to save the
selection.
Mode 1
Mode 2 does not operate off a minimum feed rate and therefore there are no settings to adjust.
Mode 2 allows the grill some flexibility in temperature control to allow the creation of more
smoke. This results in a swing of around 10-15°F. Simply set your temperature, and let it ride.
