Alarm Hysteresis (AHYS)

The alarm(s) values have a programmable hysteresis band to prevent alarm

output chatter near the alarm trigger temperature. The hysteresis value should

be set to eliminate this effect. A value of 2 to 5° is usually sufficient for most

applications. A single alarm hysteresis value applies to both alarms.

Refer to the alarm action figures for the effect of hysteresis on the various

alarm types.

AHYS - 1 to 250 degrees

COOLING OUTPUT PARAMETERS MODULE (5-02)

(OPTIONAL)

The optional secondary output (OP2) operates as an independent cooling

output for systems that use heating and cooling. One of the three types of

output modules (Relay, Logic/SSR Drive or Triac) must be ordered separately

and installed into the cooling channel socket.

Note: Units with the RS-485 serial communications option must have the same

type of modules installed for the cooling output and alarm output.

The output modules may be replaced or interchanged (with appropriate

wiring considerations) at any time without re-programming the controller.

The front panel indicator OP2 illuminates when the cooling output is on. (See

Output Module “OUTPUT ON” State Table for definition, under installing

output modules section). Cooling output power is defined as ranging from

-100% (full cooling) to 0% (no cooling, unless a heat-cool band overlap is used).
Cooling Cycle Time (CYC2)

A value of 0 turns off the cooling output, independent of cooling power

demand.

CYC2 - 0 to 120 seconds

Cooling Relative Gain (GAN2)

This parameter defines the gain of the cooling band relative to the heating

band. A value of 0.0 places the cooling output into ON/OFF control mode with

the Heat-Cool parameter (db-2) becoming the cooling output hysteresis. This

may be done independent of the main output control mode (PID or ON/OFF).

Relative gain is generally set to balance the effects of cooling to that of heating

for best control.

GAN2 - 0.0 to 10.0

Example: If 10 kW of heating and 5kW of cooling is available, initially set the

cooling gain to (2.0). The heat/cool operation figure illustrates the effect of

different gains.
