I have the 3D.
Which settings are the right ones to use:
- Initial programmed controller settings?
- User Guide (page 16) settings?
- Smokin-It's OEM (https://www.smokinitforums.com/index.php?topic=4275.msg38567#msg38567)?
The initial PID that was programmed into my controller:
P = 60
I = 800
D = 150
T = 2s
The documentation/user guide/manual on page 16 has these initial values:
P = 7
I = 600
D = 150
T = 2

Looks like a set up for a moonshot.
Glad I have an analog...

The correct settings are the factory settings P 60, I 800, D 150. You can always perform an auto tune if you feel it is necessary or tweak the values to get where you want the controller to go. I have not found a need to do either.
