7.2 Automatic Tune Mode
Automatic Tune Mode is selected when it is desired to use the
Pre-tune
and
Self-tune
facilities on a
controller to assist the user in setting up Proportional band, Integral and Derivative parameter
values. Refer to the following
Automatic Tune Mode
table.
Pre-tune can be used to set Controller
PID
parameters approximately.
Self-tune
may then be used
to optimise the tuning.
Pre-tune
can be set to run automatically after every power-up using the Auto
Pre-Tune
APt
parameter in Setup Mode.
The AT indicator will flash while pre-tune is operating, and is continuously on while Self-
tune is operating. If both Pre-tune and Self-tune are engaged the AT indicator will flash until Pre-
tune is finished, and is then continuously on.
Navigating in Automatic Tune Mode
