In the DCY-2057 Controller the upper and lower displays always show the controlled variable and the setpoint/output, respectively, for the control loop 1 or 2. The values shown on the upper and lower displays will always correspond to the same control block 1 or 2.

This type of control uses two Controllers. For the DCY-2057 Controller, control block 1 will act as the master Controller and its output will provide the slave Controller with the setpoint which will be the control block 2, as illustrated on figure 23, below.

It is used to eliminate oscillations. Note that on the DCY-2057 Controller the deviate is applied to the controlled variable; this inhibits the derivative action whenever the setpoint only is altered.
0 to 99.99 3.2.6 - Level 6 - Tune The DCY-2057 Controller can apply PID control algorithms both for control loop 1 and for control loop 2. The PID parameters: Gain (GAIN), Integrative Rate (INT) and Derivative Time (DER) are adjustable over a wide span of values in order to accommodate several processes with varying characteristics.
Page 44
PRESYS Instruments DCY - 2057 Pressure Controller Warning: Whenever the derivative time (DER) is configured as zero, the auto-tune algorithm will compute the parameters only for a PI control. Before carrying out the auto-tune, the user should select the proper control action (reverse or direct) to meet the requirements of this process.
