reserve:

To permit self-tuning, the distance between setpoint and process value must be higher than 10% of the setpoint range
before self-tuning start.

With inverse controllers, the must be higher than the process value. With direct controllers, it must be smaller.
The determines a limit which is not exceeded during self-tuning.

Self-tuning start

Select function

Stat: OFF/OK and con-

firm it with M.

Stat:OFF/OK blinks and

is switched over to

Stat: Start by pres-

sing I.

Pressing key M starts the self-tuning attempt.
The can be changed also subsequently. After
successful self-tuning, the controller changes to
automatic operation and controls the with the
new parameters.

When ‘Process at rest’ (

PiR) is detected and a

sufficient reserve is provided, the correcting va-
riable is changed by output step (increased with indirect controller, decreased with direct controller).

!

The size of the output step change is set to 100% as standard. In critical processes, this value (parameter dYopt) may
have to be reduced to prevent damage to the process. The parameter is adjustable in the engineering, or via the para -
meter dialogue of the main menu, if the engineering is known . In case of doubt, contact the programming engineer.

When self-tuning is finished with an error (

Ada_Err or 0err on the controller page), the initial correcting varia-

ble is output until self-tuning is finished by pressing key H.

Self-tuning procedure with heating and cooling processes:

(3-point / split-range controller)

Self-tuning starts as with a “heating” process.

After self-tuning end, the controller settings
based on the calculated parameters are made.
This is followed by line-out at the pre-defined ,
until

PiR is reached again.

Subsequently, a step to cooling is made to de-
termine the “cooling” parameters. When can-
celling the cooling attempt, the parameters for
“heating” are also taken over for cooling. No
error message (

Ada_Err) is output.

Whilst self-tuning is active, the control function is switched off!
