Programing the FEC100

I know mine is, I have not found the sweet spot yet. I also notice you have to push and wait a while sometimes before it reacts.

Probably saves accidentally brushing and mis setting.

It seems have pushed the rib/chicken button then the start button then come back to the rib/chicken then the start. Same way on the brisket button.
the fec 100 buttons do take a harder push than the cs 150 .

But the sequence of rib,start,rib,start then they beep the second time ? seems to work even on the 750.

Mine is the same way. Sometimes it gets easy...but most of the time it's very hard.
Oh well

Mine can be finiky.
I now "roll" my pressure around on the key till I find a spot that works.
Irritating, but workable.

Thanks,

This might be a problem that I deal with at work. I set up operator interface modules for machine operations. Panel views tend to have a delay built in to prevent the pressing of the wrong button. I've noticed that at start-up I have to wait for the processor to boot up then I can start to program in what I want it to do. Give the processor time to read what you want to do, afterall we are SLOW COOKING are we not???

Feel free to call Customer Service and let the Senior R&D Engineer what you think with some direct feedback.

Call Stuart. LOL

I got my FEC100 last February and have been smoking about every weekend. At first it was very frustrating trying to program...As time goes on it is getting easier though.
