Conditions where self-tuning cannot be used
Self-tuning cannot be used in the following situations:
During control standby
•
During ON/OFF (2-position) control
•
During auto-tuning
•
•
During ramp soak progress
When there is error input
•
•
When set for dual output
When any of the P, I, D, Ar parameters are set to manual
•
•
During manual mode
During soft start progress
•
Conditions to halt self-tuning
Halt self-tuning in the following situations:
When there is a change in SV (This includes the case where SV changes because of the
•
ramp soak function, remote SV function, or ramp SV.)
When self-tuning has not finished after running for nine or more hours
•
Setting self-tuning
Turn on power of the controller and set the SV.

PID2 Control
In case which the power supply of the control target goes ON → OFF → ON, this PID2 control
can suppress the amount of overshoot.
This control introduces an algorithm to prevent the calculated PID result from becoming a mis-
calculation, even when the control loop is open.
You will need to run auto-tuning to set the PID parameter when using PID2 control.

PID value will not be changed if the power is turned off during auto-
tuning. In this case, rerun auto-tuning.
The equipment will use ON/OFF (2 position) control during auto-
•
tuning, so there may be a large change in PV according to the pro-
cess. Do not use auto-tuning for processes that do not permit a
large change in PV. Do not use auto-tuning for processes such as
pressure control and flow control that have a fast response.
•
Auto-tuning is not behaving normally if it has not finished after four
or more hours have passed. In these cases, recheck parameters
such as input/output wiring, control output behavior (normal/
reverse), and input sensor type.
•
Rerun auto-tuning if there is a large change in SV, a change in the
PV input type, or a change in the control target conditions that
reduces the effectiveness of the controls.
You can run auto-tuning when the control type is set to "fuzzy" or

"PID2".
You cannot run auto-tuning in manual mode.
