OP1 CYCLE TIME

seconds
OP2 CYCLE TIME
.
to
.
seconds
The Cycle Time is entered in seconds with one tenth of a second resolution.
It is the total time for one on and one off period of the OP1 time proportioning
control output. With time proportional control, the percentage of power is
converted into an output on-time relative to the cycle time value set. (If the
controller calculates that 65% power is required and a cycle time of 10.0
seconds is set, the output will be on for 6.5 seconds and off for 3.5 seconds.)
For best control, a cycle time equal to one-tenth or less, of the natural period of
oscillation of the process is recommended. When using the Analog Output
signal for control, the Cycle Time setting has no effect.
CONTROL ACTION
r = Reverse Acting
d = Direct Acting
A = Alarm 3
This determines the action for each Output. When programmed as
r1d2
,
Output 1 will function in the Reverse mode (heating) and Output 2 will function
in the Direct mode (Cooling). When selected as A, OP2 is configured as the
alarm 3 output and the alarm 3 settings will become accessible in the Alarm
module configuration menu and OP2 parameters will no longer be available.
OUTPUT 1 POWER LOWER LIMIT
.
to
.
%
This parameter may be used to limit controller power at the lower end due to
process disturbances or setpoint changes. Enter the safe output power limits for
the process. When the controller is in
USEr
or
OnOF
Control Mode or Auto Tune,
this limit does not apply.
OUTPUT 1 POWER UPPER LIMIT
.
to
.
%
This parameter may be used to limit controller power at the upper end due to
process disturbances or setpoint changes. Enter the safe output power limit for
the process. When the controller is in
USEr
or
OnOF
Control Mode, this limit
does not apply.
INPUT FAIL OP1 POWER LEVEL
This parameter sets the power level in the event of an input failure (open TC/
RTD or shorted RTD). Manual (
USEr
) Control overrides the input fail preset.
The Cycle Time is entered in seconds with one tenth of a second resolution.
It is the total time for one on and one off period of the OP2 time proportioning
control output. With time proportional control, the percentage of power is
converted into an output on-time relative to the cycle time value set. (If the
controller calculates that 65% power is required and a cycle time of 10.0
seconds is set, the output will be on for 6.5 seconds and off for 3.5 seconds.)
For best control, a cycle time equal to one-tenth or less, of the natural period of
oscillation of the process is recommended. When using Analog Output signal
for control, the Cycle Time setting has no effect.
