Where SPAn means “SPA1 SPA1 SPA1 SPA1”, “SPA2 SPA2 SPA2 SPA2”, “SPA2 SPA2 SPA2 SPA2” and “SPA4 SPA4 SPA4 SPA4”.
•
Minimum value
It is activated when the measured value is below the value defined in
the alarm Setpoint.
•
Maximum value
It is activated when the measured value is above the value defined in
the alarm Setpoint.
•
Differential (or Band)
In this function, the parameters “SPA1 SPA1 SPA1 SPA1”, “SPA2 SPA2 SPA2 SPA2” represent the PV
deviation as compared to the main SP.
In a positive deviation, the differential alarm will be triggered when
the measured value is out of the range defined in:
( SP – Deviation) and (SP + Deviation)
In a negative deviation, the differential alarm will be triggered when
the measured value is within the range defined above.
•
Minimum differential
It is activated when the measured value is below the value defined in.
(SP - Deviation)
•
Maximum differential
It is activated when the measured value is above the value defined in:
(SP + Deviation)
ALARM TIMER FUNCTIONS
Alarms 1 and 2 can be programmed to have timer functions. The 3
modes of operation are:
•
pulse
•
delayed actuation
•
oscillator
The desired function can be achieved programming the parameters
“A1t1
A1t1 A1t1 A1t1”, “A1t2 A1t2 A1t2 A1t2”, “A2t1 A2t1 A2t1 A2t1” and “A2t2 A2t2 A2t2 A2t2” (see Table 4).
The LEDs associated to the alarms will light when the alarm condition
is recognized, not following the actual state of the output, which may
be temporarily OFF because of the temporization.
ALARM INITIAL BLOCKING
The initial blocking option inhibits the alarm from being recognized if
an alarm condition is present when the controller is first energized.
The alarm will actuate only after the occurrence of a non alarm
condition followed by a new occurrence for the alarm.
The initial blocking is disabled for the sensor break alarm function.

SOFT START
Defines the time interval for the output to reach its maximum value
(100 %). The soft start value is programmed in “SfSt
SfSt SfSt SfSt”. See also
parameters “ovLL ovLL ovLL ovLL” and “ovkL ovkL ovkL ovkL”.
SQUARE ROOT EXTRACTION
Available when input type 19 is selected. The indicator displays the
square root of the current signal input applied to terminals 10 and 11.
REMOTE SETPOINT
The remote Setpoint (SP) is enabled by an external digital signal in
either I/O3, I/O4 or I/O5, when programmed with the code 8 (Select
remote SP input).
An external resistor shunt of 100
Ω
is required between the terminals
9 and 10, as shown in Figure 6.
ANALOG RETRANSMISSION OF PV AND SP
The analog output, when not used for control purposes, is available
for retransmitting the SV and SP values in 0-20 or 4-20 mA. This
analog output is electrically isolated from other inputs and outputs.
The analog output signal is scaleable, with the output range determined
by the values programmed in the parameters “SPLL
SPLL SPLL SPLL” and “SPkL SPkL SPkL SPkL”.
To obtain a voltage output, connect a resistor shunt to the current
output terminals (terminal 7 and 8).
