Fuzzy technology. The TEC-220 is a 1/32 DIN size panel mount controller. The TEC-920 is a 1/16 DIN size panel mount controller. These units are powered by 11–26 or 90–250 VDC/VAC 50/60 Hz supply, incorporating a 2 Amp control relay output as a standard.
1–2 Ordering Code Figure 1.2 Programming Port Overview 1–3 Programming Port A special connector can be used to connect the programming port to a PC for automatic configuration. The programming port is used for off- line automatic setup and testing proce- dures only.

Metal enclosures must be connected to or 90–250VAC. Check that the input voltage corresponds earth ground.
2–8 Alarm Wiring 2–9 Data Communication If you use a conventional 9-pin RS-232 cable instead of TEC99014, the cable must be modified according to the following circuit diagram.

3.3 & 3.4 Alarm Figures 3–4 Alarm Output 2 can be set as an alarm output. There are six types of alarm functions and one dwell timer that can be selected, and four kinds of alarm modes (ALMD) are available for each alarm function.
3–5 Configuring the Display The TEC-220 can be configured to display the process value by selecting PV for DISP or to display the set point value by select- ing SP1 for DISP. If LOCK is set to NONE, OUT2 is set to DEHI, and DISP is set SEL1=SHIF, SEL2=ADDR.
3–8 PV Shift In certain applications it is desirable to shift the controller display value from its actual value. This can easily be accomplished by using the PV shift function. The SHIF function will alter PV only. Here is an Example: A process is equipped with a heater, a sensor, and a subject to be warmed up.
3. Press several times until appears on the display (for TEC-220), or an AT indicator on lower-right of screen is lit (for TEC-920). 4. Press and hold for at least 5 seconds. The AT indicator (for TEC-920) or the display (for TEC-220) will begin to flash indicating the auto-tuning procedure has begun.

Chapter 4 Applications 4–1 Heat Only Control with Dwell Timer An oven is designed to dry products at 150°C for 30 minutes and then stay unpowered for another batch. A TEC-920 equipped with dwell timer is used for this purpose. The system diagram is shown at right: To achieve this function, set the following parame- ters in the setup menu:...
4–3 Heat-Cool Control An injection mold is required to be controlled at 120°C to ensure a consistent quality for the parts. An oil pipe is buried in the mold. Since plastics are injected at a higher temperature (e.g., 250°C), the circulation oil needs to be cooled as its temperature rises.

Chapter 7 Modbus Communications This chapter specifies the Modbus Communications protocol as RS-232 or RS-485 interface module is installed. Only RTU mode is supported. Data is transmitted as eight-bit binary bytes with 1 start bit, 1 stop bit and optional parity checking (None, Even or Odd).
7-2 Exception Responses If the controller receives a message which contains a corrupted character (parity check error, framing error etc.), or if the CRC16 check fails, the controller ignores the message. However, if the controller receives a syntactically correct message which contains an illegal value, it will send an exception response, consisting of five bytes as follows: slave address +offset function code + exception code + CRC16 Hi +CRC16 Lo Where the offset function code is obtained by adding the function code with 128 (ie.

The host must be set with 9600 baud rate, 8 data bits, even parity and 1 stop bit.
