Operation Parameters

Set Point: Sets the operating set point for Output 1. Represents the process
value the system tries to achieve for Output 1. "SP" does not appear, the con-
trol set point value will. The lower display may be blank if dSP = Pro. If in a
ramping mode, the lower display alternately flashes the desired end set point
and rP.

Proportional Band 1 & 2 : A proportional band expressed in degrees or % of
span, within which a proportioning function is active for Output 1 or 2. When
Pb1 = 0, the unit functions as an on/off control on Output 1 and 2. Pb2 will not
appear if Pb1 = 0 or Ot2

Con. The switching differential is determined by the

HSC parameter.

Pb2 = 25

If dFL = SI: Range: 0 to 999.9% of span Defaults:

Pb1 = 3.0% Pb2 = 3.0%

Reset /Integral 1 & 2: An integral control action for Output 1 or 2 that auto-
matically eliminates offset, or "droop," between set point and actual process
temperature. rE1/It1: Will not appear if Pb1 = 0. rE2/It2: Appears if Pb1

0

and Ot2 = Con. Either reset (rE) or integral (It) will appear depending on how
the dFL parameter is set in the Calibration menu. See Appendix II.
If dFL = US: Range: 0 to 9.99 repeats/minute Default: 0.00
If dFL = SI: Range: 00.1 to 9.99 minutes per repeat

Default: 0.00

Rate /Derivative 1 & 2 : The rate (derivative) function for Output 1 or Output
2. Eliminate over shoot on start up, or after the set point changes. rA1/dE1:
Will not appear if Pb1 = 0. rA2/dE2: Appears if Pb1

0 and Ot2 = Con.

Either rate (rA) or derivative (dE) appears depending on how dFL is set in the
Calibration menu. If dFL = US or SI: Range: 0 to 9.99 minutes Default: 0.00

rE1/It1

rE2/It2

Cycle Time 1 & 2: Time for a controller to complete one time proportioned
cycle for Output 1 or Output 2; expressed in seconds. Ct1: Will not appear if
Pb1 = 0, or Output 1 is 4-20mA. Ct2: Will not appear if Pb1 = 0 or Ot2

Con.

If a mechanical relay or contactor is switching power to the load, a longer
cycle time may be desirable to minimize wear on the mechanical compo-
nents. Typical life of a mechanical relay is 100,000 cycles.
Range:
0.1 to 999.9
