Its features include: Modular design The PTC10 can accept up to four I/O cards, each of which can read up to four temperature sensors and/or drive one heater. The instrument can be customized by selecting the I/O cards best suited to your application.
Page 18: I/O Cards
However, each card’s factory calibration is stored on the card and is not lost. To add or replace an I/O card: 1. Unplug the PTC10 from the wall; otherwise, even if the instrument is switched off, live line voltage could be present. Removing and installing I/O cards while the power is turned on may permanently damage the instrument.
Page 19 Connecting the sensor The PTC320 has a 6-pin DIN socket that mates with standard 6-pin push-pull DIN plugs (i.e. Digi-Key CP-1060-ND). This is the pinout of the socket, as it appears when looking at the back panel: PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 20 Sense – Excitation – The outer shell of the plug is connected to the PTC10’s chassis. The PTC320 passes an excitation current through the attached RTD, thermistor, or diode, and senses the induced voltage. For the most accurate results all sensors should be read with a four-wire configuration, using separate sense and excitation leads.
Page 21: Ptc321 Rtd Reader
Since the PTC10 enclosure is usually elevated 2 to 3 degrees above ambient temperature, the accuracy of the PTC321 may be reduced if the ambient temperature rises above about 32°C.

In addition, one of the following error messages appears in a pop-up window on the PTC10’s screen: • Measured heater current differs from desired value: The PTC431’s output is on, and the current at the positive terminal differs from the desired current by more than 0.25A.
Page 31: Ptc440 Tec Driver
• Output is off but heater current was detected: current is flowing into the negative terminal even though the positive terminal isn’t producing any current. This error may indicate that the heater is shorted to a power source other than the PTC10. It can also indicate a failure of the card’s current output circuitry.

Page 41: Set The Data Logging Rate
If there’s no USB memory device plugged into it, the PTC10 only stores the most recent 4096 data points for each channel, and the data is lost if the PTC10 is turned off. A USB memory stick can be used to keep a permanent record of logged data.
Page 42 Read data from the PTC10 All RS-232, GPIB, USB, and Ethernet messages sent to the PTC10 must end with a linefeed (decimal 10 = hex 0x0a = ‘\n’). The PTC10 will not process the message until the linefeed is received. Instructions are not case-sensitive.

Control a temperature The PTC10 can control the temperature of one or more external devices. Each device must include a heater or cooler, and a temperature sensor that monitors the temperature of whatever is being heated or cooled.
Page 44 In the Lopass menu, select one of the six options. Select the largest value that is less than the response time of your heater. The lowpass filter reduces noise, improving the accuracy of the PID tuning process and the performance of the tuned PID feedback loop. PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 45 • Relay: For the best possible security, the output should be routed through one of the four relays (A, B, C, or D) and the Relay button should be set to A, B, C, or D accordingly.

Page 46 Operation 30 30 • Min: If the PTC10 is controlling a thermoelectric cooler, set the min to the lower temperature limit of your system. Otherwise, this value should be set well below the lowest temperature that could normally be produced, so that the min setting can only be exceeded if something is wrong with the sensor.
Page 47 If the outputs are disabled, turn them on by pressing the “Output Enable” key twice. The red Output Enable LED turns on and the PTC10 beeps (if pressed again, the Output Enable key immediately turns all the PTC10’s outputs off; inputs are not affected).
Page 48: Acquiring And Logging Data
Plug the storage device into the PTC10, and the PTC10 automatically loads the files. If you are using a calibrated Lake Shore sensor, the PTC10 will accept the .dat calibration file included with the sensor. Just rename the file to <channel name>.txt, copy the file into the cal directory of your USB stick, and plug the USB stick into the PTC10.
Page 49 This line indicates that when the measured value is 100 ohms, the PTC10 should show a reading of 0 °C. The displayed value must be expressed in whichever units are declared in the first line of the calibration table, or in Kelvins if no units are declared.

Enable key (which will disable all the PTC’s outputs), or by pressing the Channel.Off button. Besides the main system fan, the PTC10 also has an internal fan that periodically turns on to keep the main power supply cool. This fan is unaffected by any user-accessible setting.
Page 55: Using Pid Feedback
How stable is the PTC10’s feedback control? The stability of the PTC10’s feedback is usually limited not by the PTC10 itself but by all the things outside the PTC10: the sample that’s being heated, the heater, and the environment. The key factor is how rapidly the sample can be heated or cooled relative to how rapidly the temperature changes due to environmental factors such as ambient temperature variations.

Page 58 However, if the derivative gain is too large, it too can produce oscillations — because when the temperature is rising rapidly, derivative feedback reduces the heater output, which causes the temperature to rise more slowly, which makes the derivative feedback increase the heater output, and so on. PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 59: Automatic Tuning Algorithms
During automatic tuning, the PTC10 changes the heater power, measures how much and how quickly the temperature changes in response, and then estimates the optimum values of the gain factors P, I, and D. Two tuning algorithms are available on the PTC10: the relay tuner and the step response tuner.
Page 60 Lag time. The tuner continuously measures how quickly the feedback input changes, (i.e., the slope of the feedback input with respect to time). Tuning ends once the lag period has passed and the most PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 61 If the tuning mode is set to “Auto”, the PTC10 selects the relay tuner if both its high and low outputs are within the heater’s limits; otherwise, it selects the step response tuner. For example, if the output is off (and can’t go negative) when autotuning is started, the step response tuner runs...

When the PTC10 is logging to a USB memory device, a small white triangle appears in the upper-right corner of all screens; if a USB device is present but the PTC10 is not logging to it, the triangle is drawn in dark blue. If no USB device is present, the triangle doesn’t appear at all. The triangle confirms that the system is logging to USB and can also be used to start and stop USB logging.

Page 78 The Cycle instruction sets the on/off cycle time. Shortening the cycle period will reduce temperature swings associated with switching the current on and off, but will also reduce the lifetime of the relay. The cycle time must be between 1 and 240 seconds inclusive. PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 79 If the A/D rate is set (for example) to 1000 ms, the algorithm only changes the TEC output current once each second and the output current therefore changes in discrete steps, each of which may exceed the desired slew rate. PTC10 Programmable Temperature Controller...
Page 80 This value should be a few degrees above room temperature, (i.e., 25°C). Reducing the maximum PCB temperature results in tighter regulation of the PTC10’s internal temperature, particularly of the selected card, at the expense of more fan noise.
Page 81 The list of available sensor types varies with the I/O card. Changing the sensor type has three effects. First, it changes the calibration curve that the PTC10 uses to convert raw sensor readings into temperature. Second, changing the sensor type may affect how the PTC hardware acquires data from the sensor.
Page 82 The Polarity setting ensures that the relays are in an acceptable state when the PTC10 is switched off. When the Polarity is 0, the relays revert to the “alarm off” state when the PTC10 is switched off. When the Polarity is 1, they revert to the “alarm on” state.
Page 83 The alarm should be configured to disable the heater output when triggered. For additional protection, the heater output can be routed through one of the PTC10’s relays and the relay associated with the alarm. Without such a safety mechanism, it’s possible for the PTC10 to enter a “runaway feedback”...

Page 115 The amount of time that it takes to process this command is twice the value of the “A/D rate” setting. After receiving a trigger command, the PTC10 stops automatically acquiring data. The inputs are only read, and PID feedback loops only update their outputs, when a *TRG or GET message is received.

Page 127 If the indicated channel is an output, <channel>.value changes the channel’s output value. Regardless of whether the channel is an input or an output, <channel>.value? returns the current value of the channel. Attempting to set its value of an input channel produces a run-time error.

Page 132 Ramp temperature. The ramp temperature is an internally-generated setpoint for the PID feedback loop; it is the temperature that the PTC10 is trying to maintain at the present moment. If the feedback is not running, the ramp temperature always equals the sensor temperature, since the PTC10 has no control over the sensor temperature when the feedback is not running.
Page 133 Out1.PID.RampT = #Out1.PID.setpoint tells the PTC10 to stop gradually ramping the temperature and instead proceed as quickly as possible to the setpoint. On the other hand, Out1.PID.setpoint = #Out1.PID.RampT stops ramping by freezing the temperature at its current value.
