value is large, the PV response is slow.
: Filter Range (setting range=0.10~10.00℃/℉). If factory setting = 1, it means the controller will begin Digital Filter
Calcaulation when the Measure Value lies within the range of “Last displayed PV + / - 1.00℃/℉”. Therefore, it is recommended to
set a larger value when noise interferences is serious.
and
: Linear Compensation Value (setting range= -99.9 ~ +99.9). Linear Compensation Calculation equation: PV = Measure
Value + Compensation Value.

For example: Measure Value=25.0; Compensation = 1.2. After applying to the Compensation equation PV=26.2.
¾
If temperature deviation is the same in every temperature, settting linear compensation value can solve deviation problem. If temperature
deviation varies upon different temperatures, calculate the linear deviation error and adjusts the temperature by setting Gain and
Compensation value.
Linear Compensation Gain (setting range = 0~0.999). Linear Compensation Gain Calculation equation: PV = Measure
Value* (1 + Gain/1.000) + Compensation.
For example: Measure Value=25.0; Gain= 0.100. After applying to the Gain calculation equation PV= 25.0 * (1 + 0.100 / 1.000) =
27.5。
Applications of Analog Voltage & Current Input
The input range of analog voltage and current are used as the uppler/lower limit of the controller’s voltage and current setting. When
setting up the desire voltage or current, it must lies within the range of upper/lower limit. For example: If the range of analog input voltage
is 0~5V, the upper limit setting will be 5000 and lower limit setting will be 0. If the decimal setting is set to 3 decimal place, a input voltage
of 2.5V will displays as 2.500. The equation of Display Value = (Upper limit setting of controller– Lower limit setting of controller)*(Input
voltage- Analog lower limit)/(Analog upper limit– analog lower limit) + Lower limit setting of controller.
Disable the Cold Junction Function
The cold conjunction function of a thermocouple is set to ENABLE, but in some cases, we can set it to DISABLE.

Analog Output Compensation
When the output mode is set to analog current output (4~20mA) or linear voltage output (0~10V), user’s desire output value can be
attained by using compensation function. For example, the analog output 1 can be adjusted in
“Regulation Mode”. The output value can be positive or negative (+/-) and it can be changed by pressing the Up/Down key on the
temperature controller. The scale of each pressing is an increase or decrease of 1uA and 1mV.

Retransmission and Compensation Adjusting
When the input value changes, the retransmission output will also be changed correspondingly. For example: If retransmission =
4~20mA ; uppler/lower limit = 100.0 ~ 0. Wen the controller reads 0, it outputs 4mA; when the controller reads 100, it outputs 20mA. The
value can also be a negative number to generate a negative slope. For negative slope, sets upper/lower limit = 0~100.0. In this case,
when the controller reads 0, it outputs 20mA; when the controller reads 100, it outputs 4mA. Refer to the slope diagram below.

SV Control Mode Setting
There are 4 methods for setting SV of the temperature setting; they are Fixed, Slope, Program and Remote.
z Fixed SV Mode: controls the temperature to directly rise to a fixed setting value
¾ Set parameter
¾ Set the target temperature: set SV value by a parameter in 【Operation Mode】
z Slope SV Mode: Control temperature rises at a slope (unit: ℃/min.) to a fixed value, i.e., the temperature can be set to rise in a
set slope (unit: ℃/min.). E.G., Set a slope of 0.5 and set SV to 200.0℃; this means the temperature rises 0.5℃ every minute from
Room Temperature up to 200.0℃.
¾ Set parameter
¾ Set rising slope (unit: ℃/min. or ℃/s): set rising slope by parameter
¾ Set target temperature: set SV value by a parameter in 【Operation Mode】
¾ Set unit for rising slope (unit: ℃/min. or ℃/s): for parameter
position value to xxYx (Y can be 0 or 1; Y= 0: ℃/min.; Y=1: ℃/s).
zProgram SV mode: This means the temperature setting value is not a fixed value but a setting curve defined by the user
according to his-her requirements. By way of PID control, the temperature input rises along with the defined temperature curve. As
to how to input the temperature setting curve, the machine provides 16 patterns with 16 steps each, together with a linking
parameter, a loop parameter, and a number of executions. Each step has 2 parameters (temperature setting value and time). If the
initial step has a time parameter set to 0, temperature will rise from room temperature at the initial slope up to the target
temperature. After setting these parameters, each temperature controller will have its own set of initial pattern and initial step for
creating its own temperature setting curve. Some of the terms are explained as follows:
a、 Initial pattern: set the program to start running at a sequential number of patterns
b、 Initial Step: set the program to start running at a sequential number of steps
c、 Initial Slope: If the time setting of the initial step of the initial pattern is set to 0, an initial slope shall be set to allow the
temperature to rise from room temperature to the setting value.
d、 Step: includes 2 parameter settings: a setting point X and an executing time T, representing the setting value (SV) to rise
to X after time T. If the setting point X is identical to the previous setting, this process is called a Soak, otherwise a Ramp,
therefore this control procedure is also called a Ramp Soak control. The first running procedure is preset as a Soak
control, to set the temperature control to setting point X in advance and maintain the temperature at X, at a duration of T.
e、 Link Parameter: the number of the subsequent pattern to be linked after executing this pattern. If set to END, the program
mode will end but maintain the last setting value; if set to STOP, all the program controls will end with the output switched
off.
f、 Number of loops: Number of extra loops to be carried out for the pattern. If set to 1, the pattern will be carried out 2 times.
g、 Executing step: Number of steps executed for each pattern.
h、 Wait time, wait temperature: After reaching the program temperature value, a wait time and wait temperature can be set; if
the current temperature is not within the range of (temperature setting value ± wait temperature), the set wait time will start
to count down until the currently measured temperature reaches the range of (temperature setting value ± wait
temperature) of each step before proceeding to the subsequent step. An alarm will be issued if the range of (temperature
setting value ± wait temperature) is not reached when the count down reaches 0.
i、 Execution:

If the setting control is in running mode, the program will start running from the initial pattern and initial step, and carry out
commands one by one.
When the setting control is in end mode, the program will stop running and give out an output disable.
When setting control is in stop control and temperature is controlled at the setting value before the stop, by re-selecting
the start status, the program will start running from the initial pattern and initial step.
When setting control is in pause control and temperature is controlled at the setting value before the stop, by re-selecting
the start status, the program will start running from the step where the program was paused and carry out the remaining
part.

zRemote Mode: Input of setting value can be dynamic, an analog value (voltage or current) can be converted into a dynamic input
value. Two methods can be used for the conversion: positive slope or negative slope, they are depicted as follows:
a、 Positive slope Remote setting: Display of Remote analog input is in positive proportion with setting input, e.g.: Remote input
type is selected as 1~5 V analog voltage, Remote higher limit of input is set as 5000, Remote lower limit of input is 1000,
decimal display is set as 0; when Remote input is 5V, the screen shows 5000; when Remote input is 2V, the screen show
2000; this is the dynamic setting of the screen display. (Dynamic setting value =(Remote higher limit of input – Remote lower
limit of input)*(Remote input value - lower limit of Remote input)/( higher limit of Remote input - lower limit of Remote input)+
Remote lower limit of input)
b、 Negative Slope Remote setting: Display of Remote analog input is in negative proportion with setting input, e.g.: Remote
input type is selected as 1~5 V analog voltage, Remote higher limit of input is set as 5000, Remote lower limit of input is 1000,
decimal display is set as 0; when Remote input is 5V, the screen shows 1000; when Remote input is 2V, the screen show
4000; this is the dynamic setting of the screen display. (Dynamic setting value =(Remote higher limit of input – Remote lower

Remote lower limit of input)

There are 4 control modes; ON-OFF, PID, FUZZY and MANUAL.
zON-OFF Mode: For heating output, the output is off when input is greater than the setting value; output is on when input is smaller
than (setting value – adjustment sensitivity setting value). For cooling output, the output is on when the input is greater than
(setting value + adjustment sensitivity setting value); output is off when input is smaller than the setting value. If one of 2 outputs is
set for heating and the other for cooling, a non-action zone can be set as follows.

z PID Mode: When set for heating or cooling, the program performs PID operation via input temperature and setting temperature,
with the operation result output for the temperature control. A PID parameter and control period must be set for this function; these
parameters can also be generated automatically via auto-tuning (AT).

automatically select a set of PID that is most close to the input value. In order to achieve this, each set of PID parameters has
a reference input setting value which allows the user to set for manual setting or for auto-tuning (AT). E.G., for the six sets of
PID parameters as shown below, SV is reference input setting. Let us select the 4
P=40, I=220, D=55, IOF=30%. If we select AT to find the set closest to the setting value with a setting input of 230, the
program will automatically find the second set as the running parameter for PID operation.

characteristics or created automatically by AT, the pre-set integral value is set as I parameter ≠0, allowing for promptly
achieving the setting value; unit is % output; proportional error compensation is: when I parameter is set to =0, for the
adjustment of reduced time to reach the temperature. The Control Period is the period of PID operation, if the control period is
10s, it means a PID operation is carried out every 10s. The result is then output to control the temperature. If the system
heats up quickly, the control period shall not be set too long. For relay output, the lifespan of the relay shall be considered; a

Note: When performing AT, the entire system must complete setting; i.e. the input Sensor must be wired and correctly set, and the
output must be connected to a heater or cooler pipe.
zMANUAL Mode: Manual control function, may force output of a fixed value; normally operated by combining switchover of PID
control.
a、 Switch from PID control to manual control: Control output will maintain the original control output before switching over to
manual control. E.g., if the control output before the PID calculation is 20%, then the control output after switching to manual
control is 20%. You may force a fixed output value after a switchover, for example: controlling the output to be 40%.
b、 Switch from manual control to PID control: if manual control before switching-over to PID control is 40%, the program will
take 40% as the initial value for calculating the PID value and output the new control.
Note: If power of machine is switched off in manual control mood, the output % will be maintained when the power is switched on
again.

z FUZZY Mode: This comprises 2 parts: PID parameters and Fuzzy exclusive parameters. Since Fuzzy control is calculated based
on P.I.D values of PID control, the user must first set P.I.D parameters or perform auto tuning (AT) to produce these parameters. In
addition, Fuzzy control includes the following 2 exclusive parameters.
a、 Fuzzy Gain Setting: altering this value will directly affect the calculation of Fuzzy gain. Increasing this value will directly
enhance the Fuzzy control; decreasing this value will weaken the Fuzzy control. It is recommended that this value shall be
decreased for systems with slow reaction to heating/cooling. This value may be increased for systems with quick reaction to
heating/ cooling.
b、 Set Fuzzy DeadBand: The effective bandwidth of Fuzzy control, when PV value enters into the range of SV-FZDB

Setting of multiple PID sets
When PID control is selected, the system provides 6 sets (PID 0~5) PID parameter sets (P, I, D and IOF parameter) to be selected by the
user. In general conditions, one set of PID (P0) is adequate. For different setting values (SV), when the same PID value is not adequate
to control the precision, the user may set up multiple sets of PID parameters for the system to automatically switch-over to an applicable
PID set.

Tune Function
This machine provides 2 tuning methods (Auto_Tuning and Self_Tuning) for automatic generation of PID parameters (only applicable
when control mode is set to PID control).
zAuto_Tuning: by full output of heating or cooling, temperature is allowed to oscillate up and down. Attain parameters of the
magnitude and period, calculate P, I, D, IOF parameters; in addition, save the temperature setting value for performing AT, for the
use of PID control. After Auto_Tuning, PID control will be carried out automatically.

zSelf_Tuning: By full output of heating or cooling, max. slope of temperature alteration and system delay can be attained from the
Temperature-Time Curve, and P, I, D, IOF parameters can be calculated. Self tuning can be carried out in RUN mode and in STOP
mode. In the RUN mode, PID parameters are allowed to be updated when the machine is running; in the STOP mode, PID
parameters for the SV value can be attained.

Alarm Outputs
Two alarm outputs are provided in the machine, a maximum of 3 alarm outputs can be expanded. A total of 19 Independent alarm settings
can be made as listed in the table. Additional settings are provided, such as alarm delay, alarm standby, alarm output hold, alarm reverse
output, and alarm peak record, as described as follows:
a、 Alarm Delay Setting: Sets alarm delay time. When the movement conforms to the alarm setting mode, controller will delay the
generation of an alarm signal; an alarm will only be activated when the alarm conditions remains confirmed within the delayed period
of time.
b、 Alarm Standby Setting: An alarm detection will only be activated when the measured value falls within the ±5 range of the specified
input value, so as to prevent an alarm activation on the start-up if the condition conforms to the alarm setting.
c、 Alarm Output Hold Setting: The alarm message will be held when the alarm activates, unless the control switches off the alarm.
d、 Alarm Reverse Output Setting: An alarm output can be set for NC( Normal close) or NO(Normal Open).
e、 Alarm Peak Record Setting: For recording the peak value of the alarm signal.
