After the last parameter in one level is reached the controller returns
to operation level and the display will indicate the measured
temperature.
The display will also go back to the measured temperature whenever
the display is inactive for 20 seconds or more.
When a parameter value is changed via keyboard the controller will
only accept the new value after the user presses the INDEX key to
go to next prompt or if the keyboard is left inactive for 20 seconds.
For disabling the keyboard, move the internal strap to the position
KEY DISABLE. All parameters will be protected, accept the SP
parameter.

SP
Set Point
TEMPERATURE measured by the sensor.
At power up, the upper display shows the process
temperature value. It also shows the messages
described in chapter 5 of this manual.
The lower displays shows the set point value which
is the temperature value desired for the process.

Pb
Proportional
band
PROPORTIONAL BAND: percentage of maximum
input span.
When set ot zero (0), control action is ON/OFF.
Ir
integral rate
INTEGRAL RATE: Integral time constant in
repetitions per minute (Reset). This constant is not
used when controller is set to ON/OFF action
(Pb=0).
Dt
derivative
time
DERIVATIVE TIME: Derivative time constant in
seconds. This constant is not used when controller
is set to ON/OFF action (Pb=0).
(t
Cycle time
CYCLE TIME: Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
period in seconds. This term is not used when
controller is set to ON/OFF action (Pb=0).
KySt
HYSterisis
CONTROL HYSTERESIS: Is the hysteresis for
ON/OFF control (set in temperature units).
This parameter is only used when the controller is
in ON/OFF mode (Pb=0).

3.5. CALIBRATION
LEVEL

These parameters are used to calibrate the temperature
measurement and should only be dealt with by experienced and well
equipped personnel.
Inl(
Input Low
Calibration
SENSOR OFFSET CALIBRATION. Sets the
temperature sensor low calibration (offset). The
display shows only the corrected temperature and
not the offset added. A signal simulator should be
used to inject a low value signal to properly adjust
the offset.
InK(
Input High
Calibration
INPUT HIGH CALIBRATION. Sets the sensor input
circuit gain or high calibration.
A signal simulator should be used to inject a high
value signal to properly adjust the offset.
(j L
Cold Junction Low
Calibration
COLD JUNCTION OFFSET CALIBRATION: Sets
the cold junction offset calibration. A good
thermometer or a temperature simulator should be
used to properly adjust this parameter.
