■ ST (Self-tuning)
The following ST related items can be set:
• When the control method is set at ST (CtrL = 2), the display and setting can be
made.
• Function of ST step execution resolution width (St.SA)
When the % value of the SP change width to the PV range is larger than the set
value, the ST is started with the step response.
• Function of ST step settling width (St.Sb)
When the % value of the absolute value deviation to the PV range is smaller than
the set value, this is judged as that the step response is settled in ST.
• Function of ST hunting settling width (St.Hb)
When the PV moves up or down so that the % value of the absolute value
deviation to the PV range becomes larger than the set value, this is judged as
hunching, and then the ST is started. After that, the % value of the absolute value
deviation to the PV range becomes smaller than the set value, this is judged as
that the hunching is settled.
