control calculates everything for you. The factory default setting is off, so you
must enable this feature to use it. Note when using this feature, you may want
to start your pit temperature a little higher than normal to reduce cook time
and not overcook your food.
OPEN LID DETECT
This feature will allow recovery to the cooking temperature without overshoot
after you open the cooker’s lid. When open lid detect is set to off and you open
your pit’s lid, the temperature will drop. The inrush of oxygen can cause the
blower to over-fire the coals and cause overshoot when the lid is shut again.
When open lid detect mode is on, it detects when the pit’s lid has been opened
and minimizes the blower running during that time. Some overshoot will
always be present when your pit’s lid is opened and closed even if the blower
is off, because it still introduces oxygen to the fire. The factory default is ON, so
you must turn this OFF if you have problems with excess air currents in your pit.
When open lid detect is enabled during startup, the rate of temperature rise of
your pit will be limited to preventing over-firing. This will make a typical startup
