Dave,
Your setup procedure worked. I am now firing!!
Thanks mucho. I assume this was the same one I ran through with factory last
year.
A couple things:
In the first step where max temp is set at 2500. Mine came up EEEE
thermocouple bad) yet it is ok, but when I touched an up or down button it
became -20 ( my problem!) and all I had to do was raise it with up button to
2500. That fixed the problem.
The F and C degree codes 102 and 101 were reversed on instructions ( but
correct in factory settings section), 102 is F.
Also, your Soft Fire set at 54 degrees was 108 on mine ( from when I did
this before) the soft fire and ramp rate were both set at 108, and I
remember factory lady telling me soft fire was last 108 degrees would take
an hour.
The cooling temp of 200 degrees setting ( mine was stuck on -20) . I set to
200 but you know, I've never heard a beep from it at that temp when cooling,
or any other. I don't know what it was set at before!
Thanks Lots Again,
I'll be sure to check your site.
Regards,
