PID Controller for my Lee Melter Pot

[Reeferman]

On both of my Lee pots I put the temp sensor bead on the bottom of the pot next to the spout which not only has better control but don’t have it getting in the way.

So did some research. For units rated at 400

PID controller is set to default 400 deg

You can modify this by doing the following


To enter 2nd set of Parameters
Set LCK to 1000
Hold SET & SHIFT KEY ◄ till COD=1000 appears
COD 0
SL1 0 K type TC
SL2 1 Celsius (no luck changing to F)
SL3 0
SL4 1
SL5 0
SL6 1 (inverse operation, heating)
SL7 0
SL8 0
SL9 0
SL10 1
SL11 0
_____________________________________________

To enter 3rd set of parameters
When COD = 1 use SET to select
SLH 0 Note 3
SLL 0
oH 2
AH1 2
dF 1
To Exit Parameters Hold SET and SHIFT KEY down
(no decimal place set on mine after SLL)

3. SLH value can be changed to let unit read a higher value.
Set mine at 450°C (842° F)
