Dead Time: (s) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A numeric data field representing the
process dead time. This parameter accepts 
numbers from 0.01 to 1000.0 (seconds).
Time Constant: (s) . . . . . . . . . . . A numeric data field representing the
process time constant. This parameter 
accepts numbers from 0.01 to 1000.0 
(seconds).
Loop Type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Select a full function PID (Proportional
Integral Differential) or Fuzzy logic control 
loop.
8.3.5.7 Miscellaneous
Concentration Target: . . . . . . . . . A numeric data field representing the
concentration of the gas flowing through 
the Transducer. This parameter is relevant 
when the instrument is in the Bulk Flow 
Control mode. It is used to multiply the flow 
read from the CONTROL IN connector to 
produce the Bulk Flow target. This 
parameter accepts numbers from 0.0000 to 
100.0.
Relay Limit: (%). . . . . . . . . . . . . . A numeric data field representing the range
(single sided) of measured concentrations 
that will satisfy the lighting of the 
CONCENTRATION lamp on the 
Controller’s front panel and closing the @ 
concentration relay on the SYSTEM I/O 
connector. This parameter accepts 
numbers from 0 to 100.0 (%).
Transducer Temperature: . . . . . . A numeric data field representing the
desired operating temperature for the 
Transducer’s resonant Chamber. The 
Transducer can be heated for use in 
systems with heated lines. The 
temperature of the cell is controlled to a 
maximum of 65 
°C. Normal temperature
excursions are
± 0.01 °C or less. This
parameter accepts values from 0.1 to 65.0 
(
°C).
