Control Menu

Use the Control menu to adjust heat and cool control pa-
rameters, including:

Proportional band, integral and derivative

Output filter

Control hysteresis

The controller has separate PID and filter settings for heat
and cool outputs. In this section, only the heat screens are
shown, but the explanations apply to both the heat and cool
parameters.

If you have not set up a CPC400 series controller before, or
if you do not know which values to enter, read the Tuning
and Control chapter, which contains PID tuning constants
and useful starting values.

Heat/Cool Proportional Band

Enter the proportional band. A larger value yields less pro-
portional action for a given deviation from set point.

Values: For a thermocouple or RTD input, see Table 5.12.
For a process or pulse input, 1 to the span of the input
range (Input range high - Input range low).
Default: 40 for a thermocouple, RTD or process input; 100
for a pulse input.
Modbus Address (Loops 1 to 9): 40001 to 40009 (heat) or
40018 to 40026 (cool)
Parameter Number: 0 (heat) or 1 (cool)
LogicPro Driver: Database
LogicPro Address (Loops 1 to 9): 0.1 to 0.9 (heat) or 1.1
to 1.9 (cool)
Decimal Placement for Modbus or LogicPro: See Dec-
imal Placement for Numeric Values on page 80
