 These three functions are only available if the **Smoker Control** setting is set to **Auto (with engine speed)** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config. These functions allow you to turn the smoker effect on or off at will. The smoker is enabled by default, so these functions are entirely optional, but some people may want to selectively turn off the smoker from their transmitter even when the tank is running, and these functions give you that option. When enabled, the smoker speed will be automatically determined by engine speed and other relevant settings. When disabled, the smoker will be stopped and remain off even when the tank is in motion. The toggle function is useful for swapping the status from a single two-position switch.  These three functions are only available if the **Smoker Control** setting is set to **Auto (with engine speed)** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config.

 +===Smoker Preheat - Enable | Disable | Toggle (D)===
 +If you are using a smoker type that involves separate control of the heating element and fan, you will also be given the option to specify a preheat time (see the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config). This preheat setting will turn on the heating element when you start the engine but will delay the actual engine start for the time specified in order for the smoker oil to heat up. You may wish to disable the preheat time manually from your transmitter, which is what these functions allow you to do. Disable will skip the preheat time even if it is specified, enable will cause the engine start to delay if a preheat time is specified, and toggle will toggle between enabled and disabled. 
  
 ===Smoker - Manual Speed (A)=== ===Smoker - Manual Speed (A)===
 Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed. But if you are not using a smoker and would like a general purpose, unidirectional speed control rated at 3 amps, or for some reason you just want to control the smoker manually, change the **Smoker Control** setting to **Manual** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config. Only then will this function appear in the function list. When assigned to an analog trigger (such as a knob on your transmitter), the speed of any motor attached to the SMOKER output can be varied manually. Note that the output will be uni-directional - in other words, the motor will only turn in one direction from stop to full speed. If you want to reverse the direction you must physically swap the wires to the motor.  Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed.

-Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed. But if you are not using a smoker and would like a general purpose, high current capable digital switch, then change the **Smoker Control** setting to **Manual** on the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:motors#smoker|Motors tab]] of OP Config, and then these two on/off functions appear in the function list. When assigned to a digital trigger (such as a switch on your transmitter), the output of the smoker connector will be turned on or off. The smoker output will switch full battery voltage and can source up to 3 amps. Use this instead of a relay if you need to power a higher-current accessory and turn it on/off from your transmitter.   +Almost everyone will want to have the smoker controlled automatically by the TCB to reflect engine speed.
