5. SETTING (3) Procedure for setting each parameter For this instrument, the numeric value is not registered if it is only change by the SET key. If the set data is lock, all of the digits on the SV display unit are brightly lit and the set value cannot be changed.
Page 48
5. SETTING Press the SET key to set the instrument to the "Setting limiter (high limit)". MODE MONI Setting limiter (high limit) Press the SHIFT key to move the brightly lit digit up to the most significant digit. Every time the SHIFT key is pressed, each brightly lit digit moves as follows.
5. SETTING Press the SET key to change to the next parameter. Thus, the set value is registered. MODE MONI Setting limiter (low limit) The same setting procedure applies when other parameters are also set. For the instrument of 2-channel type, press the CH key to select CH2, then make the setting. The setting procedure is the same as the CH1 parameter setting.
6. OPERATIONS CAUTIONS Connect the input signal wiring, and then turn ON the power. If the input signal wiring opens, the instrument judges the input is disconnected. Action at input break : Up-scale Action at input short circuit : Downscale No influence is exerted upon the instrument for power failure of 20 ms or less.
Page 51
6. OPERATIONS (4) Requirements for autotuning (AT) Autotuning (AT) is the function of automatically measuring, computing and setting the optimum PID constants. The requirements for autotuning (AT) start and suspension are described in the following. Autotuning (AT) is started/stopped by "PID/AT transfer" in the mode transfer (See P.19).
7. DISPLAY AT ABNORMALITY For input abnormality Display Details Action (output) Measures Input abnormality The controller takes WARNING Measured value Measured value (PV) alarm action which is (PV) exceeds the setting limiter In order to prevent electric selecting of parameter shock, prior to replacing (high limit) or setting group 23 (PG23).

9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION 9.1 PV bias The value set in the PV bias is added to the actual input value to correct the input value. The PV bias is used to correct the individual variations in the sensors or when there is difference between the measured value (PV) of other instruments.
9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION 9.4 AT bias The AT bias is set when the autotuning function in which the measured value (PV) does not exceed the set value (SV) is activated. Our autotuning method performs ON/OFF control centering around the set value (SV), then calculates and sets each of the PID constants by hunting the measured value (PV).
9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION 9.6 Alarms (ALM) Alarm (ALM) function sets up the alarm status when the measured value (PV) or the deviation reaches the alarm set values. In the alarm status, the alarm output is output from the digital output terminals, and the alarms are used to drive the equipment danger signals or the safety equipment.

9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION (4) Alarm hold action Hold action is an action which makes the alarm function invalid even if measured value (PV) is in the alarm status at the time of power-ON, transferring operation mode from STOP to execution (RUN) or changing the set value (SV).
Page 63
9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION Alarm timer This is the function of setting the timer to the non-alarm status as far as it is within the alarm timer set time and to the alarm status if it exceeds the alarm timer set time after measured value (PV) or the deviation exceeds the alarm set value.
9. FUNCTION DESCRIPTION 9.7 Bar-graph display This is a function of displaying manipulated output value (MV), or deviation on 20-dot LEDs. (1) Manipulated output value (MV) display Manipulated output value (MV) is displayed in a span of from 0 to 100 %. One dot is 5 % fixed. [Example] For 40 % manipulated output value (MV) When manipulated output value (MV) becomes 0 % or less, the dot at the left end of the bar- graph only flashes and when it exceeds 100 %, all dots on the bar-graph light and only the dot...
