I found the instruction manual for the PID. Throughout this week I will scan 
and I'll upload it to this thread. See if someone can make a step by step guide

mine too. an hour or two learning to program a $50 temp controller (maybe $100 
with multiple ramps and usb with pc based programmer )
is much cheaper than the hours and learning curve to program and to properly 
interface an arduino that will cost at least $100 with box and interface 
circuitry.

Your opinion is to use the existing PID device?
