Excessive PID deviation
232
The PID loop error is defined as the
magnitude (absolute value) of the dif-
ference between the Setpoint (target
value) and the Process Variable
(actual value). When the error magni-
tude exceeds the preset value for
, the [OD] terminal signal turns
ON. Refer to "PID Loop Operation" on
page 109.

Notes:
• The default difference value is set to 3%. To change this value, change parameter
(deviation level).
• The example circuit for terminal [11] drives a relay coil. Note the use of a diode to
prevent the negative-going turn-off spike generated by the coil from damaging the
inverter's output transistor.
