5. SETUP PROCEDURES PRIOR TO RUNNING THE INSTRUMENT 5.2 Operation Setting Set the control set value After finishing the initial settings, set the control target value, SV. [Setting example: Set the control set value 1 (SV1) to 200 °C.] 1. Make sure that the PV/SV monitor screen is displayed, and SV1 is selected (factory set value: SV1), then press the key to go to the SV setting mode.

Before start autotuning, make sure that all required conditions (refer to P. 6-8) to start AT are satisfied.
5. SETUP PROCEDURES PRIOR TO RUNNING THE INSTRUMENT To manually adjust the PID parameters If the Autotuning (AT) function does not match the controlled object requirements, the optimum PID values may not be calculated by Autotuning (AT). In that case, adjust the PID parameters manually. •...
5. SETUP PROCEDURES PRIOR TO RUNNING THE INSTRUMENT Changing control response with Fine tuning After suitable PID values are calculated and stored by Autotuning or manual PID setting, the Fine tuning allows you to change the control response of the same PID constant control. The control response can be changed from fast to slow by simply changing the Fine tuning setting (6 levels: −3 to +3) in Parameter setting mode while the PID constant is unchanged.
