Selects the channel 1 control algorithm.
Different algorithms may be selected for
channels 1 and 2. In temperature control
applications, Ch1 is usually the heating
channel, Ch2 is the cooling channel.

the Loop Break Alarm
L B T
LOOP BREAK TIME
The loop break alarm attempts to detect loss
of restoring action in the control loop by
checking the control output, the process value
and its rate of change.
Loop break detection works for all control
algorithms: PID, VP and ON-OFF.
Note: This is not to be confused with load
failure and partial load failure.
