Section 2 BASIC OPERATIONS
POWER-UP
Upon power-up the controller executes the following sequence of operations.
· Checks for Sensor Fault. If the connected sensor type is RTD Pt100 and the selected sensor type is any of thermocouples or vice-a-versa; the controller displays sensor fault massage (S.FLt) on upper readout for Loop1 & on lower readout for Loop2. The user is advised to take necessary corrective action and press Enter key to acknowledge the fault.
· All displays and indicators are lit on for approximately 3 seconds to check any display segment failure.
· Displays controller model name on the Upper Readout and the firmware version on the Lower Readout, for approximately 1 second. This helps user to verify features and refer to the correct documents versions.
MAIN DISPLAY MODE
After the power-up display sequence, the Upper Readout and Lower Readout start showing the measured Temperature values for Loop1 and Loop2, respectively. This is called the MAIN display mode and this is the one that shall be used most often.

OPERATOR MODE
Adjusting the Control and Auxiliary Setpoints for Loop1 and Loop2
The Control Setpoint and Auxiliary Setpoint for Loop1and Loop2 can be directly adjusted on the Upper and Lower readout, respectively, while the controller is in the MAIN display mode. The Control and Auxiliary Setpoint adjustment for Loop1and Loop2 is permitted only if they are not locked via the parameter ‘Setpoint Locking’ in PAGE-11. If not locked, step through the following sequence to adjust the Setpoint values.
1. Press and release ENTER key.
The Upper Readout starts flashing Control Setpoint value for Loop1. The front panel indicator SP1 flashes to indicate that the value shown on the Upper Readout is Control Setpoint for Loop1. The Lower Readout continues to show the measured Temperature value for Loop2.
Press UP/DOWN keys to adjust the Control Setpoint value. Pressing UP or DOWN key once changes the value by one count; holding the key pressed speeds up the rate of change. The Upper Readout stops flashing as long as the UP or DOWN key is pressed for adjustment to avoid any obstructions in viewing.
2. Press and release ENTER key.
The new value for the Control Setpoint for Loop1 is stored in the controller memory. The controller now enters either into step 3 or step 5 depending upon the selection for the Auxiliary Function for Loop1. If the Auxiliary Function for Loop1 is selected as ‘None’, the controller directly enters into step 5 else it enters into step 3.
3. The Upper Readout starts flashing Auxiliary Setpoint (Alarm, Blower or Auxiliary Control) value for Loop1. The front panel indicator AU1 flashes to indicate that the value shown on the Upper Readout is Auxiliary Setpoint for Loop1. The Lower Readout continues to show the measured Temperature value for Loop2.
Press UP/DOWN keys to adjust the Auxiliary Setpoint value for Loop1.
4. Press and release ENTER key. The new value for the Auxiliary Setpoint for Loop1 is stored in the controller memory.
5. The Lower Readout starts flashing Control Setpoint value for Loop2. The front panel indicator SP2 flashes to indicate that

3

Delta Pro

User Manual

the value shown on the Lower Readout is Control Setpoint for Loop2. The Upper Readout now shows the measured Temperature value for Loop1.
Press UP/DOWN keys to adjust the Control Setpoint value for Loop2.
6. Press and release ENTER key.
The new value for the Control Setpoint for Loop2 is stored in the controller memory. The controller now enters either into next step (step 7) or returns to MAIN display mode depending upon the selection for the Auxiliary Function for Loop2. If the Auxiliary Function for Loop2 is selected as ‘None’, the controller returns to MAIN display mode else it enters the next step.
7. The Lower Readout starts flashing Auxiliary Setpoint (Alarm, Blower or Auxiliary Control) value for Loop2. The front panel indicator AU2 flashes to indicate that the value shown on the Lower Readout is Auxiliary Setpoint for Loop2. The Upper Readout continues to show the measured Temperature value for Loop1.
8. Press and release ENTER key. The new value for the Auxiliary Setpoint for Loop2 is stored in the controller memory and the controller returns to the MAIN display mode.
Repeat steps 1 through 8 each time to alter/view the Setpoint values for Loop1 and Loop2.
Notes: 1. It is a must to press the ENTER key after adjusting the Control/Auxiliary Setpoint, else the new value will not be registered / stored. The
controller waits (approx. for 30 seconds) by flashing new Control/Auxiliary Setpoint Value. If the ENTER key is not pressed within wait time, the altered value will not be stored in the controller memory and the previous set value will be retained. Also, if the power failure occurs prior to pressing ENTER key, upon resumption of power, the controller will not store the altered value and retain the previous set value.
2. Upon adjusting the new Control Setpoint, the controller automatically enters into the Self-Tuning Mode (the Tune Indication, TN1 and TN2 for Loop1 and Loop2, respectively starts flashing if the “New Installation” condition is detected). Also, if the `Tune at Setpoint Change’ function is enabled in PAGE-11 parameter list, the controller automatically enters into the Self- Tunning Mode upon adjusting the Control Setpoint in the following conditions:
i) The “Tune at Setpoint Change” condition is detected.
ii) The Self-Tunning Mode is manually aborted while the Tunning is in progress.
3. The Auxiliary Setpoint value is available only if the Auxiliary Function is selected to other than None.
4. The Control and Auxiliary setpoint adjustments are permitted only if these are not locked via the parameter ‘LOCK’ in PAGE-11. The setpoint values, however, are always available for viewing regardless of the lock.
5. While in Operator Mode, the heater and auxiliary output statuses for both Loop1 and Loop2 are forced off to clearly indicate what the Upper or the Lower Readout is indicating.
Issuing Tune / Abort Command
The controller’s ‘X-PERT’ algorithm is powered with the ability to self detect the events such as new installation, substantial change in Control Setpoint, etc. for tuning itself to the process under control for both the Loops. However, the user can issue separate Tune Command to each Loop to force itself and make an attempt to improve the already computed values of the constants used by the Loop control algorithm. Only under the following instances, the user should issue the Tune Command:
1. If for some reason the control accuracy / performance is not satisfactory.
2. If it is required to re-initiate the tuning procedure once the self- initiated tuning procedure was aborted by the user by issuing Abort Command.
3. There are substantial changes in the operating conditions such as change in load, heater size, etc., after the initial installation.

4. By the machine / equipment manufacturer at the time of dispatch to the end user. This is to ensure that the controller retunes for the new conditions such as running the machine with full load condition.
There are separate Tune / Abort commands for Loop1 and Loop2. Upon issuing Tune / Abort command, the respective Loop enters / exits the re-tuning procedure. Follow the steps below to issue Tune or Abort Command:
1. Press PAGE key. The Lower Readout shows PAGE and the Upper Readout shows 0.
2. Press ENTER key. The Lower Readout now shows either tUn.1 (if Loop1 is not already tuning) or Abt.1 (if the tuning for Loop1 is in progress) and the Upper Readout shows no (No).
3. Press UP key to select YES (Yes) on the Upper Readout to issue Tune / Abort command for Loop1. Press ENTER key to register the YES command. Upon pressing ENTER key, Loop1 enters / exits tuning operation depending upon the command issued. If Tune command is issued, the front panel indicator TN1 starts flashing to indicate that Loop1 has begun tuning operation. If, however, Abort command is issued, the flashing indicator TN1 turns off to indicate that Loop1 tuning operation is aborted.
The Lower Readout now shows either tUn.2 (if Loop2 is not already tuning) or Abt.2 (if the tuning for Loop2 is in progress) and the Upper Readout shows no (No).
4. Repeat step 3 for issuance of Tune / Abort command for Loop2. The controller automatically returns to MAIN display mode upon pressing ENTER key.
Notes:
1. The Tune and Abort Commands are mutually exclusive. That is, the Tune Command is available only when tuning is not already initiated whereas Abort Command is available only while tuning is in progress.
2. While the tuning operation is in progress, the user is advised not to disturb the process or any parameter values of the controller under tuning. Upon completion of the tuning operation, the respective indicator (TN1 for Loop1 and TN2 for Loop2) turns off to indicate that the tuning operation is over.
The following tips can help user to decide when to issue Tune command.
1. In most applications, the controller is subject to dry run (without actual load conditions) by the machine manufacturer after its first installation on the machine. This is usually done to conduct tests / trails of the machine. It may then be desired that the controller automatically enter into re-tuning procedure while it is first run with full load conditions at the end user site. For this, it is best to issue the Tune command and switch off the controller prior to dispatch (thus, leaving the tuning procedure incomplete). The controller then automatically resumes the tuning when it is powered next time.
2. If it is found that the control results are not satisfactory (may be due to dynamic changes in the load conditions), it is best to issue this command while the process is being controlled near the Control Setpoint. This will cause small disturbances in the Temperature value while the controller is performing tuning procedure but shall eventually result in a stable control once the tuning procedure is complete.
TEMPERATURE VALUE ERROR INDICATIONS
In case, the measured Temperature value falls below the Minimum Range or rises above the Maximum Range specified for the selected input sensor or in case of sensor open / broken; the controller flashes the error messages as listed in Table 2.1 below. Note that the messages for Loop1 flash on Upper Readout while those for Loop2 flash on the Lower Readout.

Notes:
1. In case of Over-range and Under-range condition, the Control Output and Auxiliary Output (if selected as Blower or Control) of the respective Loop is held at the minimum level, that is, OFF.
2. In case of Sensor break (open) condition; the control signal (% output power) will depend upon the Sensor Break Strategy selected in PAGE-11 parameter list that is commonly applicable for Loop1 and Loop2.
3. For 3-wire RTD sensor input, If the compensating lead (connected at rear panel terminal number 3) is not connected or gets open, the controller does not indicate PV error but the measured value is not compensated for the lead resistance.
4. In case Tunning operation is in progress, the controller automatically aborts the Tunning operation upon detecting the PV error condition.
5. If the Auxiliary Function is selected as Alarm for Loop1 and/or Loop2, the respective alarm gets activated in error conditions. Refer below, Sub-section: Alarm Status Under Temperature Error Conditions.

ALARM STATUS UNDER TEMPERATURE VALUE ERROR CONDITIONS
The Table 2.2 below summarizes the alarm status under various Temperature error conditions. The alarm ON status means the alarm is activated and OFF means the alarm is not activated.

Table 6.1
Parameter Description
OUTPUT POWER FOR LOOP1
This is a view only parameter (can not be adjusted by the user) that facilitates the indication of % output power (0 to 100%) computed by the PID algorithm.
CYCLE TIME FOR LOOP1
(For PID’ Control) For time-proportionating PID control, the output power is implemented by adjusting the ratio of ON : OFF to a fixed time interval, calledCycle Time’. The larger the power the larger the ON time and vice-a-versa.
Larger Cycle time ensures longer Relay/SSR life but may result in poor control accuracy and vice-a-versa.The recommended Cycle Time values are; 20 sec. for Relay and 1 sec. for SSR.
PROPORTIONAL BAND FOR LOOP1
(For PID’ Control) The Proportional band is defined in terms of process value deviation from the setpoint (also known as process error). Within the band the output power is varied from maximum (100%) at maximum deviation to minimum (0%) at minimum deviation. The process value thus tends to stabilize at a point within the band where the power input equal losses. Larger Band results in better stability but larger deviation. The Proportional Band value is automatically calculated by controller’s Self- Tune feature and seldom requires any manual adjustment. INTEGRAL TIME (RESET) FOR LOOP1 (ForPID’ Control) The application of proportional band alone results in process value stability within the band but away from the setpoint. This is called steady state Offset Error. The integral action is incorporated for automatic removal of offset error with minimum oscillations.
The Integral Time value is automatically calculated by controller’s Self-Tune feature and seldom requires any manual adjustments.

Parameter Description
DERIVATIVE TIME (RATE) FOR LOOP1 (For `PID’ Control) It is desired that the controller should respond to any dynamic changes in the process conditions (like variations in load, power supply fluctuations, etc.) fast enough so as retain the process value near the setpoint. The derivative time determines how strong the output power will change in response to the rate of change of measured PV. The Derivative Time value is automatically calculated by controller’s Self-Tune feature and seldom requires any manual adjustments.

PANEL MOUNTING Follow the steps below for mounting the controller on panel: 1. Prepare a square cutout to the size shown in Figure 9.2. 2. Remove the Panel Mounting Clamp from the controller Enclosure and insert the rear of the controller housing through the
panel cutout from the front of the mounting panel. 3. Hold the controller gently against the mounting panel such that it positions squarely against the panel wall, see Figure 9.3.
Apply pressure only on the bezel and not on the front label. 4. Insert the mounting clamps on either side of the controller in the slots provided for the purpose. Rotate the screws clock-
wise so that they move forward until they push firmly against the rear face of the mounting panel for secured mounting.

User Manual

1. The user must rigidly observe the Local Electrical Regulations.
2. Do not make any connections to the unused terminals for making a tie-point for other wires (or for any other reasons) as they may have some internal connections. Failing to observe this may result in permanent damage to the controller.
3. Run power supply cables separated from the low-level signal cables (like RTD, DC Linear (Voltage) signals, etc.). If the cables are run through conduits, use separate conduits for power supply cable and low-level signal cables.
4. Use appropriate fuses and switches, wherever necessary, for driving the high voltage loads to protect the controller from any possible damage due to high voltage surges of extended duration or short-circuits on loads.
5. Take care not to over-tighten the terminal screws while making connections.
6. Make sure that the controller supply is switched-off while making/removing any connections or removing the controller from its enclosure.

CONNECTION DIAGRAM
The Electrical Connection Diagram is shown on the top side of the enclosure. The diagram shows the terminals viewed from the REAR SIDE with the controller label upright. The connecters provided for wiring are pluggable male-female type. The female parts are soldered on the controller PCBs while the male parts are with screws and removable. The rear panel electrical wiring connection diagram is shown in Figure 10.1.
