P, I, D…
2. Press SET key to select the parameter that to be modified. Hold SET key and press increase
key, LED flashes, as the same operations, it shift to another digit, press increase/decrease to
modify the value. Press SET key to confirm.
3. In the menu of parameter adjustment, select parameter LCK, when LCK=000 or LCK=010, in
the state of manipulation (MAN lamp on), press SET key for 3 seconds to enter calibrate
parameter menu. Modification of the parameters, same as in above, i.e. Step 2.

modification. Anyway, the value of LCK can be modified by the user.
A4000
7.2.2 FUNCTION OPERATIONS
1. To convert the displaying windows: Press SET key, SV lamp on indicates the setting value; MV
lamp on indicates control output values; SV lamp flash indicates the measuring value of loop
input.
2. When SV lamp is On, the procedure of modification is same as Key Operations.
3. MV value modification: MV lamp On, and if it is manual manipulation (MAN lamp On), please
modify, referring the procedure of Key Operations.
4. Auto/Manual manipulate convert is
On: Manual Tune;
Off: Auto –tune, Press A/M key to convert.
5. Auto adjust operation: Press SET key for 3 seconds, enter parameter P, I, D… Set P 6 0, then
press SET key to select parameter AT and set AT=1, MAN lamp flashes, it means that the unit
is in auto-tune state. Press SET key to quit. At this moment, please don’t perform any key
operation and wait for auto-adjust to complete. When auto-adjust is finished, MAN lamp is Off,
the unit refreshes the PID value by itself.
6. Auto when power On: When the system is running, if user wants to switch auto-tune
immediately, please do as following: Enter P, I, D…Press Set key to select parameter MAN
and set MAN=1. On the other hand, if you want manual manipulate, set MAN=0.
7.3 Programmable Curve Controller
Key Operations:
1. SET key: Parameter Select/Confirm key.
2. Press SET key and increase key at the same time, LED flashes, the value can be modified.

3. Increase/Decrease key to modify the value.
4. A/M key: Auto manipulate convert key, when the program is running, it will pause (MAN lamp
On). Press A/M key, it will continue running (MAN lamp off).
5. Press SET key and A/M key at the same time to turn On/Off the program. The key operation is
not available when its non-program running.
6. Curve setting method: In the ofline state, press ▲/▼ key at the same time, the SV window
displays in and enter the parameter setting area, press SET key to select the parameter SV00
and begin to set the parameter of curve.
7. In the course of setting, SET is a curve parameter selection key.
8. When the setting is finished, press ▲/▼ key at the same time. To quit.
12 Segments of program curve, running parameter are as under:
A4000
In the table, the curve is “free” set by the user. SV00 is the beginning of the curve
running. TM00 is the time SV00 to SV01. TM01 is the time from SV01 to SV02...
SVXX: Stands for the value of each turning point. It should belong to the range of measuring
(FL1 to FH1).
TMXX: Stands for the running time of each stage. The range of timing is 0.0-540 minutes or
more.
The program will come to end in case the next turning point is set to 0. For example, there are
only 4 stages. You should set TM04=0, meanwhile SV04 ≠ 0, then the program comes to end.
To set TMXX=0: Shift the flashing digit to the left, press decrease key till it displays 0.
Before grogram starts: Normal operation, is set ehemeter in auto-tune state, running the system
with the controller in a set point to acquire the value of P, I, D.
Output when program starts: Before start, the user can set the output value as he wants.
Manipulate steps: set MV value as to pre-heat, if the user wants always heating before program
starting, he can set MV=100.
Program pauses: During the course of program running, press A/M key can pause running and
MAN lamp is On. At this moment, the user can modify the control output value by manipulate;
the unit will wait for other action such as heating, running stage and Preset stops when program
pauses.
Program continues: When the program pauses, press A/M key can make it continue to run the
program. MAN lamp is Off.
Program ends: When the program reaches the end of the last stage, or reaches the next stage
that is set value 0, the program will come to end. At this moment the unit will display “END”.
Meanwhile output stops, and alarm 2 takes action.
Displaying convert: Press SET key to select the parameters. SV lamp On indicates preset value
of the parameter, SV lamp flashes indicates parameter of running stage. MV lamp On indicates
the control output value.
AL1 and AL2: In non-programmable curve control, AL1 and AL2 are used for the 4 Alarm
modes. In programmable curve control, AL1 is used for normal style of alarm; AL2 is used for
alarming program ends.

7.4.2 Additional notes of manipulate operator/ electronic-machine driver.
1. When the adjustor is a non-electronic machine control output, all key operations are the
same as stated before.
2. When the adjustor is non-electronic machine (required the electronic machine driver must
have Low-High location equipment.) control output, some parameters should be modified as
follows:
HY: Blind spot of motor control setting. Range: 1.0-5.0%
Ct: The running time of full open to full close to full open. Range: 20-250 seconds.
AL1: Normal alarm mode.
OUTL: Value output law value. Range: 0.0 ~ 50.0%.
AL2: Change to motor positive-tune control.
OUTH: Value output high value. Range: 30.0 ~ 100.0%
OUT: Motor reverse-turn control.
3. Displaying operations:
PV displays the measuring value.
SV lamp on displaying preset value, SV lamp flashes displaying value feedback value,
MV lamp on displaying control output value.
ABUS TECHNOLOGIES INC.

Manual Manipulation: MAN lamp On means manual manipulation. Press SET key select
MV lamp is On, at this moment the window can be set to show the present between the
total power on running time and the whole running time of the motor or value. The
percent shows the location value of the value. When changing the manual manipulate
value, the unit will stop after running the set timing. When it is auto-tune, it displays the
running location value of value.
Auto-tune: the unit runs as PID mode
Auto/manual manipulate converts: Press A/M key to convert.
4. Value feedback signal calibrations
Feedback signal voltage/current: When it is input by voltage 0-5V, 1-5V, 0-10V or
current 0-10mA, 4-20mA, the unit should be calibrated by the factory. Otherwise the
user should calibrate on the spot.
Feedback impedance of value is less than 1K, the user should calibrate on the spot.
Steps are as follows:
Connect all wires, according to the instructions in manual. And then switch
on the power.
Press A/M key to make Man lamp On. Press SET key for more than 3
seconds entering parameter P,I,D...Select LCK and set LCK=000, and then
press SET key for more than 3 seconds again to enter the parameter
calibrate area.
Press SET key to select IN1, set IN1=rt, it means impedance input.
Press SET key, select and select nL1. At this moment, value motor will
close. Waiting for full range running time, till low location switch takes action.
Then press SET key to confirm. The unit will display 0.0 (low values
calibrate) at this moment.
Press SET key, select nH1. At this moment, value motor will open. Waiting
for full range running time, till high location switch takes action. Then press
SET and increase key at the same time, LED flashes, press SET key to
confirm. The unit will display 100.0 (high value calibrate) at this moment.
Feedback impedance of value is more than 1K
External impedance should be used to share partly of the full voltage to make it
about 60mV. Select the input signal IN1=Ln, and then calibrate as mentioned above.

Control wire connections (control mode convert BSET1.6=1 means open control,
BSET1.6=0 means close control)
A4000
7.4.3 Remote control operations:
1. Remote control setting: Set parameter BSET1.7=1 and it means the unit for remote control.
The factory has set this parameter before sales.
2. Remote control connection wires: In normally, the remote control input is connected to the
terminal +5V, GND and mA according to the voltage/current input.
3. Remote input displaying: SV and MV windows display remote input value, press SET key to
select, when SV flashes, the SV window displays remote control value. This is set by input
value of parameters IN2, FL2, FH2 and nH2.
4. Error elimination of faulty wire connection: In this case the input signal exceeds the range of
measuring, the unit will cancel external setting function. It changes to internal panel setting.
It will not display external value at this moment. SV lamp On means, that it can change the
setting value.
