CONFIGURATION PARAMETER MODULES
Accessible from the unprotected parameter mode, the configuration
parameter modules allow the operator access to the controller’s fundamental
set-up parameters. There are nine possible configuration stages that can be
accessed. At the configuration stage access point “CNFP”, the operator uses
the UP & DOWN arrow buttons to select the desired configuration parameter
module. Press the PAR button to enter the module where the settings can be
viewed or modified.
The PAR button is used to scroll through the parameters and the UP and
DOWN buttons are used to modify the parameter value. The PAR button
enters the desired choice, advancing to the next parameter. The operator can
press the DSP button to exit (escape) without modifying the parameter, which
returns the unit to the normal display mode. After the parameters in a module
are viewed or modified, the unit returns to the configuration access point,
allowing access to other modules.
INPUT MODULE (1- IN)
The controller has several input set-up parameters which must be
programmed prior to setting any other controller parameters.
Input Type (type)
Select from the list of various thermocouple and RTD sensors. Be sure to set
the internal input select jumper to the appropriate position (TC or RTD, see
select input sensor type or the label on inside of case for location of jumper).
The following is a list of the possible sensors:
tc-t - Type T TC
tc-E - Type E TC
tc-J - Type J TC
tc-k - Type K TC
tc-r - Type R TC
tc-S - Type S TC
tc-B - Type B TC
tc-N - Type N TC
LIN - Linear mV display
r385 - 385 curve RTD
r392 - 392 curve RTD
rLIN - Linear ohms display
Temperature Scale (SCAL)
Select either degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or degrees Celsius (°C). If changed, be
sure to check All parameters.
Temperature Resolution (dCPt)
Select either 1 or 0.1 degree resolution. If changed, be sure to check All
parameters.
Input Signal Filter (FLtr)
Select the relative degree of input signal filtering. The filter is an adaptive
digital filter which discriminates between measurement noise and actual
process changes, therefore, the influence on step response time is minimal. If
the signal is varying too greatly due to measurement noise, increase the filter
value. Additionally, with large derivative times, control action may be too
unstable for accurate control. Increase the filter value. Conversely, if the
fastest controller response is desired, decrease the filter value.
