Safety Information We use note, caution and warning symbols through- out this book to draw your attention to important operational and safety information. A “NOTE” marks a short message to alert you to an important detail. A “CAUTION” safety alert appears with informa- tion that is important for protecting your equip- ment and performance.
Chapter 1: Overview ® The EZ-ZONE PM takes the pain out of solving your thermal loop requirements. ® Watlow’s EZ-ZONE PM controllers offer options to reduce system complexity and the cost of control- loop ownership. You can order the EZ-ZONE a PID controller or an over-under limit controller, or you can combine both functions in the PM Integrat- ed Limit Controller.
A Conceptual View of the PM The flexibility of the PM’s software and hardware al- lows a large range of configurations. Acquiring a bet- ter understanding of the controller’s overall function- ality and capabilities while at the same time plan- ning out how the controller can be used will deliver maximum effectiveness in your application.

Installation retention collar case 1. Make the panel cutout using the mounting tem- plate dimensions in this chapter. Insert the case assembly into the panel cutout. 2. While pressing the case assembly firmly against the panel, slide the mounting collar over the back of the controller.
Returning the Controller to its Case 1. Ensure that the orientation of the controller is correct and slide it back into the housing. Note: The controller is keyed so if it feels that it will not slide back in do not force it. Check the orientation again and reinsert after correcting.

Manual Tuning In some applications, the autotune process may not provide PID parameters for the process characteris- tics you desire. If that is the case, you may want to tune the controller manually. 1. Apply power to the controller and establish a set point typically used in your process.
3. Initiate an autotune. (See Autotuning in this chapter.) When autotuning is complete, the PID parameters should provide good control. As long as the loop is in the adaptive control mode, TRU-TUNE+ ously tunes to provide the best possible PID control for the process.
Set Electrical Offset to 0 and Electrical Slope to 1 to restore factory calibration. Filter Time Constant Filtering smoothes an input signal by applying a first-order filter time constant to the signal. Filter- ing the displayed value makes it easier to monitor. Filtering the signal may improve the performance of PID control in a noisy or very dynamic system.

which allows its set point to be manipulated by an external source. A common application would use one ramping controller with a set-point retransmit out- put to ramp multiple controllers using the remote set point. Or you could use an analog output from a PLC to send set point values to an EZ-ZONE The controller must have two process inputs to use the remote set point feature.
Range High Range Low Scale Low Retransmit Source Set the range of the process output with Scale Low [`S; L o] and Scale High [`S; h i]. Scale the re- transmit source to the process output with Range Low [`r; L o] and Range High [`r; h i]. When the retransmit source is at the Range Low value, the retransmit output will be at its Scale Low value.
Set Point Actual Temperature 100% Output Power Time Input Error Latching [`i; E r] (Setup Page, Ana- log Input Menu) determines the controller’s response once a valid input signal returns to the controller. If latching is on, then the controller will continue to indicate an input error until the error is cleared.
In an application with one output assigned to heating and another assigned to cooling, each will have a separate proportional parameter. The heating parameter takes effect when the process temperature is lower than the set point, and the cooling param- eter takes effect when the process temperature is higher than the set point.
When the dead band value is a negative val- ue, both heating and cooling outputs are active when the temperature is near the set point. Cool Output Active Set Point Heat Output Active Negative Dead Band Time Adjust the dead band with Dead Band [``db] (Operations Page, Loop Menu).
Set Point degrees per minute Temperature ramps to Set Point at a set rate Time Alarms Alarms are activated when the output level, process value or temperature leaves a defined range. A user can configure how and when an alarm is triggered, what action it takes and whether it turns off auto- matically when the alarm condition is over.
Alarm Silencing If alarm silencing is on the operator can disable the alarm output while the controller is in an alarm state. The process value or temperature has to enter the normal operating range beyond the hysteresis zone to activate the alarm output function again. An active message, such as an alarm message, will cause the display to toggle between the normal settings and the active message in the upper display...
Using Lockout to Secure Settings If unintentional changes to parameter settings might raise safety concerns or lead to downtime, your can use the lockout feature to make them more secure. Each of the menus in the Factory Page and each of the pages, except the Factory Page, has a security level assigned to it.
