In this control mode the TCB will automatically take care of setting the speed with throttle, turning off the smoker when the engine is off, and applying the idle, fast idle, and max speed settings defined below. But if you are not going to use a smoke unit you can treat the SMOKER output as a general purpose, unidirectional motor speed controller. In **Manual** mode the output can be controlled with any analog trigger source assigned to the [[wiki/ | + | The SMOKER output on the TCB can be controlled in two ways. **Auto (with engine speed)** is what you should use if you actually intend to connect a smoke unit to the TCB.

Set this option to 0 to disable preheating or if you don't want an engine start delay. Otherwise if a time is specified, when you start the engine with whatever trigger you have assigned to that function, the heating element will immediately be turned on to full power (battery voltage) and an optional pre-heat sound will be played as a notification (User Sound 2 if using the Benedini TBS Mini or " | + | This option becomes available if you are using separate heat and fan outputs, and will allow you to specify a length of time in seconds |
