-9999 to 9999 step 0.01
SP2 proportional band or Hysteresis -
* 100% sensor maximum, proportional control eliminates the cycling of on-off control. Output power
is varied, by proportioning action, across the proportional band
 
Integral time

0 to 1000, step 0.1
SP2 integral time/reset -
Auto-corrects proportional control offset error
 
Derivative time 
25 secs
0 to 200. step 1
SP2 derivative time/rate -
Suppresses overshoot and speeds response to disturbances
 
DAC

0 to 5 step 0.5
SP2 derivative approach control dAC -
Tunes warm-up characteristics, independent of normal operating conditions, by adjusting
when derivative action starts during start-up (smaller dAC value = nearer setpoint).

SP2 proportional cycle-time -
Determines the cycle rate of the output device for proportional control.
The choice of cycle-time is influenced by the external switching device or load. eg. contactor, SSR, valve. A setting that is too long for the 
process will cause oscillation and a setting that is too short will cause unnecessary wear to an electro-mechanical switching 
device. 
 
Maximum power 
100
0 to 100, step 1
Maximum % proportional output of SP2. When using proportional control the output of SP3 will not exceed maximum power setting.
 
Minimum Power 
0
0 to 100, step 1
Minimum proportional output of SP2. When proportional control is used the output of SP3 will not reduce below the minimum power setting.
 
Output power 
Read Only
0 to 100, step 1
The current proportional output of SP2 shown as %.
 
Manual power 
Off
Off, 0 to 100, step 1
Manual power overrides PID calculated power output. The proportional output for SP1 will remain constant at the entered value. To return to 
PID control set manual power to 0. 
 
Display alarm 
No
No,
Yes
When set to yes, alarm symbol is shown on controller image within CALogix-sw when an alarm output is switched. 
 
Reset latched alarm
No
No,
Yes
Used to clear a latched alarm output on SP2, once the alarm condition has cleared. Set value to yes to clear.
