Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent operation failure, malfunction, or adverse
affects on the performance and functions of the product. Not doing so may occasionally result in unexpected events. Use the product within the specifications.
• The product is designed for indoor use only. Do not use or store the product outdoors or in any of the
following locations.
Locations directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment.
Locations subject to splashing liquid or oil atmosphere.
Locations subject to direct sunlight.
Locations subject to dust or corrosive gas (in particular, sulfide gas and ammonia gas).
Locations subject to intense temperature change.
Locations subject to icing and condensation.
Locations subject to vibration and large shocks.
• Use and store the Digital Controller within the rated ambient temperature and humidity.
Gang-mounting two or more Digital Controller s, or mount ing Digital Controllers ab ov e each othe r ma y
cause heat to build up inside the Digital Controllers, which will shorten their service life. In such a
case, use forced coo ling by fans or other means of air ventilation to cool down the Digital Controllers.
• To allow heat to escape, do not block the area around the product. Do not block the ventilation holes
on the product.
• Be sure to wire properly with correct polarity of terminals.
• Use the specified size of crimped terminals (M3, width of 5.8 mm or less) for wiring. To connect bare
wires to the terminal block, use copper braided or solid wires with a gage of AWG24 to AWG18
(equal to a cross-sectional area of 0.205 to 0.8231 mm
two wires of the same size and type, or two crimped termin als can be inserted into a single terminal.
• Do not wire the terminals that are not used.
• To avoid inductive noise, keep the wiring for the Digital Controller's terminal block away from power
cables that carry high voltages or large currents. Also, do not wire power lines together with or
parallel to Digital Controller wiring. Using shielded cables and using separate conduits or ducts is
recommended.
Attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that generate noise (in particular,
motors, transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils or other equipment that have an inductance
component).
When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the voltage or cur rent, and attach the noise
filter as close as possible to the Digital Controller.
Allow as much space as possible between the Digital Controller and devices that generate powerful
high frequencies (high-frequency welders, high-frequency sewing machines, etc.) or surge.
• Use this product within the rated load and power supply.
• Make sure that the rated voltage is attained within 2 seconds of turning ON the power using a switch
or relay contact. If the voltage is applied gradually, the power may not be r eset or outpu t malf uncti ons
may occur.
• Make sure that the Digital Controller has 30 minutes or more to warm up after turning ON the power
before starting actual control operations to ensure the correct temperature display.
• When executing self-tuning, turn ON power for the load (e.g., heater) at the same time as or before
supplying power to the Digital Controller . If pow er is turned ON for the Digital Controller bef ore turning
ON power for the load, self-tuning will not be performed properly and optimum control will not be
achieved.

Precautions for Safe Use
• A switch or circuit breaker should be provided close to Digital Controller. The switch or circuit breaker
should be within easy reach of the operator, and must be marked as a disconnecting means for
Digital Controller.
• Wipe off any dirt from the Digital Controller with a so ft dry cloth. Never use thinners, ben zine , alcoho l,
or any cleaners that contain these or other organic solvents. Deformation or discoloration may occur.
• Design the system (e.g., control panel) considering the 2 seconds of delay in setting the Digital
Controller’s output after the power supply is turned ON.
• The output will turn OFF when you move to the Initial Setting Level. Take this into consideration when
performing control.
• The number of non-volat ile memory write operations is limited. Therefore, use RAM write mode when
frequently overwriting data, e.g., through communications.
• Use suitable tools when taking the Digital Controller apart for disposal. Sharp parts inside the Digital
Controller may cause injury.
• Do not connect cables to both the fr ont-panel Setu p Tool port and the top-panel Setup Tool port at the
same time. The Digital Controller may be damaged or may malfunction.
• Do not exceed the communications distance that is given in the specifications. Use the specified
communications cable.
• Do not turn the power supply to the Digital Controller ON or OFF while the USB-Serial Conversion
Cable is connected. The Digital Controller may malfunction.

Installation Precautions
Installation Precautions
z Service Life
Use the Digital Controller within the following temperature and humidity ranges:
Temperature: −10 to 55°C (with no icing or condensation), Humidity: 25% to 85%
If the Digital Controller is installed inside a control board, the ambient temperature must be kept to
under 55°C, including the temperature around the Controller.
The service life of electronic devices like Digital Controllers is determined not only by the number of
times the relay is switched but also by the service life of internal electronic components. Component
service life is affected by the ambient temperature: the higher the temperature, the shorter the
service life and, the lower the temperature, the longer the service life. Therefore, the service life can
be extended by lowering the temperature of the Digital Controller.
When two or more Digital Controllers are mounted horizontally close to each other or vertically next
to one another, the internal temperature will increase due to heat radiated by the Digital Controllers
and the service life will decrease. In such a case, use forced cooling by fans or other means of air
ventilation to cool down the Digital Controllers. When providing forced cooling, however, be careful
not to cool down the terminals sections alone to avoid measurement errors.
z Ambient Noise
To avoid inductive noise, keep the wiring for the Digital Controller's terminal block wiring away from
power cables carrying high voltages or large currents. Also, do not wire power lines together with or
parallel to Digital Controller wiring. Using shielded cables and using separate conduits or ducts is
recommended.
Attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that generate noise (in particular,
motors, transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils or other equipment that have an inductance component). When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the voltage or current, and attach
the noise filter as close as possible to the Digital Controller.
Allow as much space as possible between the Digital Controller and devices that generate powerful
high frequencies (high-frequency welders, high-frequency sewing machines, etc.) or surge.
z Ensuring Measurement Accuracy
When extending or connecting the thermocouple lead wire, be sure to use compensating wires that
match the thermocouple types.
When extending or connecting the lead wire of the platinum resistance thermometer, be sure to use
wires that have low resistance and keep the resistance of the three lead wires the same.
Mount the Digital Controller so that it is horizontally level.
If the measurement accuracy is low, check to see if input shift has been set correctly.

Installation Precautions
z Waterproofing
The degree of protection is as shown below. Sections without any specification on their degree of
protection or those with IP@0 are not waterproof.
Front pane l: IP66
Rear case: IP20, Terminal section: IP00
When waterproofing is required, insert the Waterproof Packing on the backside of the front panel.
Keep the Por t Cover on the front-panel Setup Tool port of the E5EC/E5AC securely closed. The
degree of protection when the Waterproof Packing is used is IP66. To maintain an IP66 degree of
protection, the Waterproof Packing and the Por t Cover for the front-panel Setup Tool port must be
periodically replaced because they may deteriorate, shrink, or harden depending on the operating
environment. The replacement period will vary with the operating environment. Check the required
period in the actual application. Use 3 years or sooner as a guideline. If the Waterproof Packing and
Port Cover are not periodically replaced, waterproof performance may not be maintained. If a
waterproof structure is not required, then the Waterproof Packing does not need to be installed.

Precautions for Operation
Precautions for Operation
• It takes approximately two seconds for the outputs to turn ON from after the power supply is turned
ON. Due consideration must be given to this time when incorporating Digital Controllers into a control
panel or similar device.
• Make sure that the Digital Controller has 30 minutes or more to warm up after turning ON the power
before starting actual control operations to ensure the correct temperature display.
• When using self-tuning, turn ON power for the load (e.g., heater) at the same time as or before
supplying power to the Digital Controller . If pow er is turned ON for the Digital Controller bef ore turning
ON power for the load, self-tuning will not be performed properly and optimum control will not be
achieved. When starting operation after the Digital Controller has warmed up, turn OFF the power
and then turn it ON again at the same time as turning ON power for the load. (Instead of turning the
Digital Controller OFF and ON again, switchin g from STOP Mode to RUN Mode can also be used.)
• Avoid using the Digital Controller in places near a radio, television set, or wireless installing. The
Digital Controller may cause radio disturbance for these devices.

The remote SP input circuit is not electrically isolated from the internal circuits. Therefore, when using a
grounded sensor input, do not connect the remote SP input terminals to ground. (If the remote SP input
terminals are connected to ground, errors will occur in the measured temperature as a result of leakage
current.)

2-4-3Installing the Driver
1. Connect a USB connector on the computer with a Setup Tool port on the Digital Controller
using the Cable or Cables.
2. Obtaining the Driver
When the CX-Thermo Support Software for the Digital Controller is installed, the driver for the
USB-Serial Conversion Cable will be copied to the following folder.
C:\Program Files\OMRON\Drivers\USB\E58-CIF
3. Installing the Driver
Install the driver to enable the Cable to be used with the personal computer.
• Installation
When the Cable is connected with the personal computer, the OS will detect the product as a new device. At
this time, install the driver using the Installation Wizard.
Note 1: We recommend that you install the driver for each USB port on the computer at the star t. The Digital
Controller assigns a COM port number to each USB por t on the compute r. If the same USB port is used,
you will be able to use the same COM port number even if you use a different Cable.
2: Installation of the driver will not be completed if the installation is canceled before it is completed. Normal
communications will not be possible unless the driver is installed completely. If the driver is not installed
completely, uninstall it, and then install it correctly.
4. Setting Setup Tool Communications Conditions
Set the communications port (COM port) number to be used for the CX-Th ermo Setup Tool to the COM
port number assigned to the USB-Serial Conversion Cable.
Refer to the E58-CIFQ2 USB-Serial Conversion Cable Instruction Manual and Setup Manual for details
on how to check the COM port assigned to the USB-Serial Conversion Cable.
The communications conditions f or Setup Tool COM ports are fixed as shown in the ta bl e belo w. Set the

On the E5@C, the parameters are classified into levels according to their applications. These levels are
called setting levels. The setting levels consist of some basic setting levels and other setting levels.
Moving between Setting Levels
The following figure gives an overall image of the setting levels. The setting levels consist of the basic
setting levels (shaded below) and the other setting levels (not shaded).
The Initial Setting Level, Communications Setting Level, Advanced Function Setting Level, and Calibration Level can be used only when control is stopped. If you change to any of these levels, control will

4-5Selecting PID Control or ON/OFF
Control (Not Supported for
Position-proportional Models.)
Two control methods are supported: 2-PID control and ON/OFF control. Switching between 2-PID control and ON/OFF control is executed by means of the PID ON/OFF parameter in the initial setting level.
When this parameter is set to pid, 2-PID control is selected, and when set to onof, ON/OFF control, is
selected. The default is onof.
z 2-PID Control
PID control is set by AT (auto-tuning), ST (self-tuning), or manual setting.
For PID control, set the PID consta nts in th e Proportional Band (p), Integ r al Time ( i), and Derivative
Time (d) parameters.
For heating and cooling control, also set the Proportional Band (Cooling) (c-p), Integral Time
(Cooling) (c-i), and Derivative Time (Cooling) (c-d).
z ON/OFF Control
In ON/OFF control, the control output is turned ON when the process value is lower than the current
set point, and the control output is turned OFF when the process value is higher than the current se t
point (reverse operation).

4-6 Setting Output Specifications
• Set the output periods (control periods). Though a shorter period provides
better control performance, it is recommended that the control period be set to
20 seconds or longer for a relay output to preserve the service life of the relay.
After the settings have been made in the initial setup, readjust the control
period, as required, by means such as trial operation.
• Set the control periods in the Control Period (Heating) and Control Period
(Cooling) parameters in the Initial Setting Level. The default is 20 seconds for
a relay output and 2 seconds for a voltage output (for driving SSR).
• The control periods are used only for PID control.
• The Control Period (Cooling) parameter is used only for heating/cooling
control.
• When control output is used as a current output, the Control Period parameter
cannot be used.

For example, when the process value (PV) is lower than the set point (SP) in a
heating control system, the manipulated variable increases according to the
difference between the PV and SP. Accordingly, reverse operation is used in a
heating control system. Direct operation is used in a cooling control system, in
which the operation is the opposite of a heating control system. The Control
Output 1 Assignment is set to o (control output (heating)) for either direct or
reverse operation.

4-7-1Changing the SP
• The set point cannot be changed when the Operation/Adjustment Protect parameter is set to 3. For
details, refer to 5-7 Using the Key Protect Level .
• To change the set point, press the U or D Key in the PV/SP parameter (Operation Level) or for the
SP/SP (character display) display in the Operation Level, and set the desired set value. The new set
point is selected three seconds after you have specified the new value.
• Multi-SP is used to switch between eight set points. For details, refer to 5-4 Using Event Inputs for
details.
No. 3 display (E5EC/E5AC only) shows the MV.
The contents that is set in the PV/SP Display Screen Selection parameter in the
Advanced Function Setting Level are displayed.
For details, refer to 4-13-1 PV/SP Display Selections.
In this example, the set point is changed from 0°C to 200°C.
Operating Procedure

4-8Using ON/OFF Control (Not
Supported for Position-proportional
Models.)
In ON/OFF control, the control output tu rns OFF when the temperature being contro lled reaches the
preset set point. When the manipulated variable turns OFF, the temperature begins to fall and the control turns ON again. This operation is repeated over a certain temperature range. At this time, how
much the temperature must fall before control turns ON again is determined by the Hysteresis (Heating)
parameter. Also, what direction the manipulated variable must be adjusted in response to an increase
or decrease in the process value is determined by the Direct/Reverse Operation parameter.
4-8-1ON/OFF Control
• Switching between 2-PID control and ON/OFF con trol is perf ormed using the PID ON/OFF par ameter
in the Initial Setting Level. When this parameter is set to pid, 2-PID control is selected, and when it is
set to onof, ON/OFF contro l is selected. The default is onof.

z Hysteresis
• With ON/OFF control, hysteresis is used to stabilize operation when switching between ON and
OFF. The control output (heating) and control output (cooling) functions are set in the Hysteresis
(Heating) and Hysteresis (Cooling) parameters, respectively.
• In standard control (heating or cooling control), the setting of the Hysteresis (Heating) parameter
in the Adjustment Level is used as the hysteresis regardless of wh et her t he cont ro l type is he at ing
control or cooling control.
