Ac- quiring a better understanding of the controller’s overall functionality and capabilities while at the same time planning out how the controller can be used will deliver maximum effectiveness in your application.
  • Page 14: Outputs

    Keep in mind that a function is a user-programmed internal process that does not execute any action outside of the controller. To have any effect outside of the controller, an output must be configured to respond to a function. Outputs Outputs can perform various functions or actions in response to information provided by a function such as, removal of the control voltage to a contactor;...

  • Page 115: Manual Tuning

    A new feature in PM 3 L E G ACY ™ P ID products will allow set point changes while the control is autotuning, this includes while running a profile or ramping. When the autotune is initially started it will use the current set point and will disregard all set point changes until the tuning process is complete.
  • Page 116: Autotuning With Tru-Tune

    Autotuning with TRU-TUNE+ ® The TRU-TUNE+ adaptive algorithm will optimize the controller's PID values to improve con- trol of dynamic processes. TRU-TUNE+ monitors the Process Value and adjusts the control parameters automatically to keep your process at set point during set point and load changes. When the controller is in the adaptive control mode, it determines the appropriate output signal and, over time, adjusts control parameters to optimize responsiveness and stability.
  • Page 117: Inputs

    When autotuning is complete, the PID parameters should provide good control. As long as the loop is in the adaptive control mode, TRU-TUNE+ continuously tunes to provide the best pos- sible PID control for the process. ç WARNING! During autotuning, the controller sets the output to 100 percent and attempts to drive the Process Value toward the set point.

  • Page 120: Scale High And Scale Low

    Scale High and Scale Low When an analog input is selected as process voltage or process current input, you must choose the value of voltage or current to be the low and high ends. For example, when using a 4 to 20 mA input, the scale low value would be 4.00 mA and the scale high value would be 20.00 mA.
  • Page 121: Outputs

    Outputs Duplex Certain systems require that a single process output, control both heating and cooling out- puts. An P M3 LE GAC Y ™ PI D controller with a process output can function as two sepa- rate outputs. With a 4 to 20mA output the heating output will operate from 12 to 20mA (0 to +100 percent) and the cooling output will operate from 12 to 4mA (0 to -100 percent).
  • Page 122: Cool Output Curve

    Cool Output Curve A nonlinear output curve may improve performance when the response of the output device is nonlinear. If a cool output uses one of the nonlinear curves a PID calculation yields a lower actual output level than a linear output would provide.

When used in conjunction with a zero cross (burst fire) device, such as a solid-state power controller, switching is done only at the zero cross of the ac line, which helps reduce electrical noise (RFI).
