4.3 Set the Setpoint 1 Value (PRoG > SP1)
Setpoint 1 is the main setpoint used for control and is displayed on the front
of the unit. The unit will try to maintain the input value at the setpoint
using the selected outputs.
In the program menu, using the return button, select the SP1 parameter. Use
left and right buttons to set the process goal value for PID and oN.oF control
modes.
Refer to Section 4.5 and Section 4.6 for more information on setting up
control modes.
4.4 Set up the Control Output
The outputs and control parameters of the unit are set up in the Programming
(PRoG) Menu. The unit is configured with a 3A Mechanical Relay and a 5A Solid
State Relay. An optional Isolated Analog Output is also available.
4.4.1 Select an Output Channel (PRoG > StR1/dC1/IAN1)
In the Program Menu, navigate and select an Output Type to configure.
Menu
|
Output Type
---|---
StR1| Single Throw Mechanical Relay number 1. (Output 1)
dC1| DC Pulse output number 1 (Controls the 5A SSR). (Output 2)
IAN1| Isolated Analog output number 1 (Optional ISO Analog terminals)
Each Output Type has the following submenus:
Setting|
Parameters
---|---
ModE| Allows the output to be set up as a control, Alarm,
Retransmission, or Ramp/Soak event output; the output can also be turned off.
CyCL| PWM pulse width in seconds for StR1 and dC1. (PID Control Mode
Only)
RNGE| Sets the voltage or current output range (For IAN1 only)
For safety, all outputs modes are set to OFF by default. To use an output, select the appropriate control mode setting from the Mode Menu. PID mode and On/Off mode can be used for process control. The other modes are event based and can be used to activate the outputs during certain events.
Setting|
Parameters
---|---
oFF| Turn off the output channel (factory default).
PId| Set the output to Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) Control.
oN.oF| Set the output to On/Off Control Mode.
RtRN| Set up the output for Retransmission (IAN1 Only).
RE.oN| Turn on the output during Ramp events.
SE.oN| Turn on the output during Soak events.
4.5 On/Off Control Mode (PRoG > {Output} > ModE > oN.oF)
For simple applications On/Off control mode can be used to maintain a rough
temperature. This mode can be used with either the SSR or Mechanical Relay but
not with the Analog Output.
On/Off control mode turns an output On or Off based on if the process value is
above or below the setpoint. In On/Off control mode the direction of control
is set in the Action (ACtn) menu and a Deadband is set in the (dEAd) menu.
For ACtN, select the correct setting:
Setting
|
Parameters
---|---
RVRS| Reverse: Output remains On until (Process Value >
Setpoint) then Output remains Off until (Process Value < Setpoint
– Deadband)
dRCt| Direct: Output remains On until (Process Value < Setpoint)
then Output remains Off until (Process Value > Setpoint +
Deadband)
The Deadband represents how much the process value must revert, after reaching
the setpoint, before the output will activate gain. It prevents the output
from rapidly cycling on and off. Use the (dEAd) menu to set the desired value.
The default deadband is 5.0. A deadband of zero will turn the output back on
immediately after it crosses the setpoint.
4.6 PID Control
PID control mode is required for Ramp and Soak applications or for finer
process control. For Mechanical Relay and SSR outputs, the output will be on a
percentage of time based on the PID control values. The frequency of switching
is determined by the (CyCL) parameter for each output. For the optional analog
output, the PID control changes the output to a percentage of the full scale
selected in the (RNGE) menu.
The SSR is synchronous and can only switch ON or OFF at the 0V AC.
PID mode may cause relay chattering when used with StR.1. For this reason, the
cycle time for StR.1 is limited to a minimum of 1 second.
4.6.1 PID Configuration (PRoG > PId.S)
The PID tuning parameters must be set before PID control can be used. These
parameters can either be set by hand in the (PRoG>PId.S>GAIN) menu or the
controller can try to determine these values for you using the Autotune
option.
4.6.2 Follow these steps to run an Autotune procedure:
- Hook up the controller in its desired configuration with the inputs and outputs connected.
- Set the desired Setpoint as detailed in Section 4.3.
- Set the desired output to PID mode as detailed in Section 4.4.
- Set the action (ACtN) parameter (PRoG>PID.S>ACtn) as detailed below.
Setting
|
Description
---|---
RVRS| Reverse: Output increases the process value
dRCt| Direct: Output decreases the process value
5. Set the Autotune Timeout (A.to) parameter (PRoG>PID.S>A.to).
• (A.to) sets the amount of time before the Autotune process gives up and
times out in Minutes and Seconds (MM.SS). Note that slowly responding systems
should have a longer time out setting.
-
Ensure the process value is stable. If the process value is changing, the Autotune will fail.
-
Select the Autotune (AUto) command (PRoG>PID.S>AUto).
• Confirm Autotune activation. Using return button.
• The current Process value is displayed flashing.
• The unit optimizes the P, I, and d settings by turning the output on and measuring the input response. This may take several minutes depending on the system.
• When the Autotune operation completes the unit displays the message “doNE”. -
If Autotune fails an error code is displayed. Refer to the table below to determine the cause.
Error Code
