full open (100%) to full closed (0%) or vice versa.
Xp1 is the throttling range for the main control loop, Xp2 is
used if limitation or cascade control (submaster control loop)
is active (see Table 11).

Throttling Range Xpc / Xph (P.10 / P11)

The control parameters Xpc and Xph are only available on
R7426B,C controllers and are used to set the cooling and
heating throttling ranges for the following applications
• Temperature sequence control with heating, mixed air

dampers, and cooling (see Fig. 3 and Table 11)

• Temperature cascade control with heating, mixed air

dampers, and cooling (see Table 11)

In applications without cooling, the throttling range Xpc must
be set to OFF 100% fresh air supply at actual temperature
above the control point is required (outdoor and return air
dampers fully open).

Setting Guidelines for Proportional Band of P and

P+I Control

To estimate the proportional band (throttling range X

p

) for

stable control under all different load conditions, the control or
correcting range X

h

of the heating or cooling coil must be

known. This is the maximum air temperature increase pro-
duced by the heating coil or decrease of a cooling coil if the
control valve is fully open.
The proportional band X

p

for discharge air control can be

calculated by using the following rule-of thumb formula:

For room temperature control, the following rule-of-thumb
formula can be used:

The

(X

trol is the maximum difference between outdoor air (OA)
temperature and return air (RA) temperature.

The often-specified accuracy for room control of

allows a discharge air alteration of 20

In P+I control the same proportional band can be used as for
P control. The following rule-of-thumb formulae are used for

Fig. 4. Step change response of P+I control


In the case of combined action including proportional and
integral components (P+I control), the reset time (tr) is
defined as the required time after which the integral part is
equal to the change due to the proportional action for a
predetermined step change in the input variable. See Fig. 4.
The control parameter tr1 sets the reset time of the P+I main
temperature control loop. For limit or submaster cascade
control the control parameter tr2 sets the reset time of these
control loops, e.g. discharge temperature T2 (see Table 11).
If only proportional control is required, parameter tr must be
set to OFF.
