Hi,
I just modified my Bradley digital 4 rack smoker... I added a second 500 watt heating element.  I know I need to run auto tune (i have a WS-1211GPH).  Do i need to make a change to any other settings (like changing 500 watts to 1000 watts)?

Thanks,
Michael

You don't have to run auto-tune at first. You can simply double P value, and see if it works for you. By default P is 7, and you can set it as 14. If it doesn't work well for you, you can run auto-tune then. It will optimize all the PID parameters. Other settings remain unchanged.
