NOTES ON CONTROLLER DEFINE MODE PARAMETERS
1. The Process Variable Offset value should be chosen with care. Any adjustment to this parameter
is, in effect, a calibration adjustment. Injudicious application of values to this parameter could lead to
the displayed process variable value bearing no meaningful relationship to the actual process variable
value. There is no front panel indication when this parameter is in effect (i.e. has been set to a
non-zero value).
2. These parameters are applicable only if the secondary Control (COOL) ooutput is fitted.
3. These parameters are not applicable if Proportional Band 1 is set to 0 (i.e. ON/OFF control for
Output 1).
4. This parameter is not applicable if Proportional Band 1 is set to 0 or if Output 2 (COOL) is not fitted.
5. The Message Display will show Diff 1 for ON/OFF control on Output 1, Diff 2 for ON/OFF control
on Output 2 or Diff for ON/OFF control on both Output 1 and Output 2.
