Introduction

INTRODUCTION

The CN9400 is a 1/16 DIN dual display, dual output miniature

controller with PID control strategy.

Control can be optimised with a single shot autotune either on

initial warm-up or at setpoint. The second setpoint can be

configured in a variety of alarm modes or PID Heat-Cool strategy. A

programmer offers a single ramp to setpoint with a choice of timed

soak period before switching off the output.

Control of non temperature processes is achieved by the provision

of linear input ranges and scaling in commonly used engineering

units.

Serial communication is available as an option, and the easy to use

CN9-SW is a graphic WINDOWS

TM

based software package designed

for PC supervision of up to 32 instruments, for remote adjustment,

configuration, cloning, saving and retrieving settings to files and

logging and charting in real time.

CN9-SW uses the MODBUS

®

protocol via either a fully isolated RS232

or RS485 link depending on the number of instruments and the

transmission distances involved in the application.

A users manual is supplied with the comms option. For more

information contact OMEGA. For details, see rear cover.

It is suggested that users read the OVERVIEW section of this manual

before any installation or setting-up procedures are undertaken.

Note:

The controller will not be operational until either the

QUICK-START or SET-UP procedure has been completed.

NB:

Please note that in program mode, functions

are shown in the upper display (green) and options

in the lower display (orange)
