Definitions for Table 2:
CtL
Control Mode - This parameter determines whether controller functions as a time
proportional or an on/off control.
At
Auto-tuning
– Off for PID tuning, ON for controller to tune process.
P
Proportional Band - Expressed in degrees. This value determines the band width on
both sides of the setpoint within which the control provides proportional control.
I
Integral Time - Expressed in seconds. This parameter corrects for errors in actual
temperature versus the setpoint.
D
Derivative Time - Expressed in seconds. This effect of the derivative time is in direct
proportion to the time setting.
Ct
Cycle Time - Expressed in seconds. This is the total time for one ON/OFF cycle of the
controller output during the proportional action.
FL
Input Filter
– Expressed in seconds. This function should be used when the PV may
fluctuate greatly (i.e. input signal contains noise).
bS
PV Bias - Expressed in percent of span. From
–100 to 100% of span, this parameter
used to set the actual oven temperature to the controller display.
LoC
Key Lock - This provides levels of access to the controller.
0 = No key lock, full access to controller.
1 = Prevents changing of all parameters except setpoint.
2 = Prevents all parameters from being changed including the setpoint.
–1 = Set to enter the Setup parameter setting display.
When LoC = -1, the parameters are displayed in the order shown in the Set-Up
Parameters section, below.
