will alternate

tune

and the process temperature.

The lower display will read the setpoint value.

Note:

During tuning the main setpoint (SP1) LED will flash.

When the TUNE AT SETPOINT program is complete the upper

alternating display stops and only the process temperature is

displayed. The PID values are entered automatically. The

process temperature will rise to setpoint and control should

be stable. If not, this may be because optimum cycle time

is not automatically implemented. To set the cycle time see

PROPORTIONAL CYCLE-TIME.
