    Configuring the applications XP is the proportionality factor. The proportionality factor indicates that the output varies proportionally to the setpoint over the XP range. For instance, the ORP setpoint is 400 mV and the XP value is 20 mV. 20 mV is the operating range for the output. This sets the controller so that the controller outputs 0 speed when the process value reaches the setpoint, and outputs 100% when the process value XP (20 mV) is below the setpoint.
