Pay Attention to the Following when Installing this Controller

F If you remove the controller from its case, never touch nor apply shock to the electronic parts inside.

F Do not cover the area around the E5EK. (Ensure sufficient space around the controller to allow heat radiation.)

F Use a voltage (AC100-240V or AC/DC24V at 50 to 60 Hz). At power ON, the prescribed voltage level must be attained within two seconds.

F When wiring input or output lines to your controller, keep the following points in mind to reduce the influence from inductive noise:

•Allow adequate space between the high voltage/current power lines and the input/ output lines.

•Avoid parallel or common wiring with high voltage sources and power lines carrying large currents.

•Using separating pipes, duct, and shielded line is also useful in protecting the controller, and its lines form inductive noise.

F Allow as much space as possible between the controller and devices that generate a powerful, high frequency (high-frequency welders, high-frequency sewing machines, and so forth) or surge. These devices may cause malfunctions.

F If there is a large power-generating peripheral device and any of its lines, attach a surge suppressor or noise filter to the device to stop the noise affecting the controller system. In particular, motors, transformers, solenoids and magnetic coils have an inductance component, and therefore can generate very strong noises.

F When mounting a noise filter, be sure to first check the filter’s voltage and current capacity, then mount the filter as close as possible to the controller.

F Do not use the controller in places where icing, condensation, dust, corrosive gas (especially sulfurized gas or ammonia gas), shock, vibration, splashing liquid, or oil atmosphere occur. Also, avoid places where the controller can be subjected to intense heat radiation (like from a furnace) or sudden temperature changes.

F Ambient temperature must be kept between -10_C to 55_C. Ambient humidity must be kept between 35%RH to 85%RH (with no icing or condensation). If the controller is installed inside a control board, the ambient temperature must be kept under 55_C, including the temperature around the controller. If the controller is subjected to heat radiation, use a fan to cool the surface of the controller to under 55_C.

F Store the controller at an ambient temperature between -25_C to 65_C. The ambient humidity must be between 35%RH to 85%RH (with no icing or condensation).

F Never place heavy objects on, or apply pressure to the controller that may cause it to deform and deterioration during use or storage.

F Avoid using the controller in places near a radio, television set, or wireless installation. These devices can cause radio disturbances which adversely affect the performance of the controller.

JHow to use keys

F key

F key

The following describes basic key operations.

Each press of this key switches between the auto and manual operations.

The functions of this key change according to how long it is pressed. If the key is pressed for less than one second, the parameters are switched. If the key is pressed for one second or more, the menu display appears. In key operations from here on, “press the key” refers to pressing the key for less than one second.

For details on parameter switching and menu display items, see page 1-8.

F	key	Each press of the	key increments or advances the values or settings
		on the No.2 display, while each press of the		key decrements or
		returns the values or settings on the No.2 display.

Functions vary, for example, when the key is held down simultaneously with the display key, or a key is held down continuously. For details, see page 1-8. Also, chapters 3 and 4 describe examples using various key combinations.

The E5EK supports following inputs: temperature input, current input, voltage input, CT input/Potentiometer, remote SP input and event input.

F Temperature input/Voltage input/Current input

FCT input/Potentiometer

F Remote SP input

•Only one of temperature input, voltage input and current input can be selected and connected to the controller. The above figure shows temperature input connected to the controller.

•The following input sensors can be connected for temperature input: Thermocouple: K, J, T, E, L, U, N, R, S, B, W, PLII

Platinum resistance thermometer: JPt100, Pt100

•The following currents can be connected for current input:

4 to 20 mA, 0 to 20 mA

•The following voltages can be connected for voltage input:

1to 5 VDC, 0 to 5 VDC, 0 to 10 VDC

•Connect CT input when using the HBA (heater burnout alarm) function on a standard type controller (E5EK-AA2).

•Connect the potentiometer when monitoring the valve opening on a position-proportional type controller (E5EK-PRR2). However, note that the potentiometer cannot be used simultaneously with remote SP input.

•Remote SP input cannot be used simultaneously with potentiometer.

•When the remote SP function is enabled, inputs within the range 4 to 20 mA are used as the remote SP.

1--4

	1.2 Input and Output
F Event input	When using event input, add on the input unit (E53-CKB).
	You can select from the following four event inputs:
	Multi-SP
	Run/Stop
	Auto/Manual
	SP mode
JOutput	The E5EK supports the following five outputs.
	Control output 1
	Control output 2
	Auxiliary output 1
	Auxiliary output 2
	Transfer output
	When using control outputs 1 and 2, set the output unit (sold sepa-
	rately). Nine output units are available to suit the output circuit config-
	uration.
	When using transfer output, add on the communication unit
	(E53-AKF).
	Note: The output functions of the E5EK do not operate for five seconds
	after the E5EK is turned ON.
F Output assign-	The E5EK supports the following ten output functions.
ments	Control output (heat)
	Control output (cool)
	Alarms 1 to 3
	HBA
	LBA
	Error 1 (input error)
	Error 2 (A/D converter error)
	Error 3 (RSP input error)
	Assign these output functions to control output 1, control output 2,
	auxiliary output 1, and auxiliary output 2.
	However, note that as control output 1 is used as the open output and
	control output 2 is used as close output on a position-proportional type
	controller (E5EK-PRR2), control outputs 1 and 2 cannot be used as
	assignment destinations. Also, of the output functions, control output
	(heat), control output (cool), HBA and LBA are disabled.
	On a standard type controller, there are restrictions on how assignment
	destinations (control output 1, control output 2, auxiliary output 1, and
	auxiliary output 2) can be used. For details, see 3.3 Setting Output
	Specifications.
	In the example on the previous page, “control output (heat)” is assigned
	to “control output 1”, “alarm 1” is assigned to “control output 2”, and
	“alarm 2” is assigned to “auxiliary output 1”. Accordingly, the configu-
	ration is such that heating control output is connected to control output
	1, and alarm output is connected to control output 2 and auxiliary out-
	put 1.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

Control outputs 1 and 2 are used depending on the differences in control method as follows.

	Control Method	Model	Control Output 1/
			Control Output 2
	Standard control	E5EK-AA2 AC100-240	Control output (heat) /
		E5EK-AA2 AC/DC24	Alarm, etc.,
	Heating and cooling	E5EK-AA2 AC100-240	Control output (heat) /
	control	E5EK-AA2 AC/DC24	Control output (cool)
	Position-proportional	E5EK-PRR2 AC100-240	Open/Close
	control	E5EK-PRR2 AC/DC24

F Transfer output	The E5EK supports the following six transfer outputs.
	Set point
	Set point during SP ramp
	Process value
	Heating side manipulated variable
	Cooling side manipulated variable
	Valve opening
	However, note that heating/cooling side manipulated variables can be
	output only standard type controllers, and valve opening can be output
	on position-proportional type controllers
	These transfer outputs can be output after being scaled. Setting of an
	upper limit value smaller than the lower limit value is allowed, so
	reverse scaling can also be carried out.

1.3 Parameters and Menus

1.3 Parameters and Menus

JParameter types

F Protect mode

E5EK parameters are distributed between the following nine modes. Protect mode

Manual mode Level 0 mode Level 1 mode Level 2 mode Setup mode Expansion mode Option mode Calibration mode

The settings of parameters in each of seven modes (excluding the protect mode and manual mode) can be checked and modified by selection on the menu display.

This mode is used to limit use of the menu and keys. The protect function is for preventing unwanted modification of parameters and switching between the auto and manual operation.

F Manual mode	In this mode, the controller can be switched manual operation. The
	manipulated variable can be manipulated manually only in this mode.
F Level 0 mode	Set the controller to this mode during normal operation. In this mode,
	you may change the set point during operation, and stop and start op-
	eration. You can also monitor (not change) the process value, ramp SP
	and manipulated variable.
F Level 1 mode	This is the main mode for adjusting control. In this mode, you can
	execute AT (auto-tuning), and set alarm values, the control period and
	PID parameters.
F Level 2 mode	This is the auxiliary mode for adjusting control. In this mode, you can
	set the parameters for limiting the manipulated variable, switch
	between the remote and local modes, switch between the SP modes, and
	set the loop break alarm (LBA), alarm hysteresis and the digital filter

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1.4 About the Communications Function

	The E5EK can be provided with a communications function that allows
	you to check and set controller parameters from a host computer. If the
	communications function is required, add on the communications unit.
	For details on the communications function, refer to Chapter 6.
F RS-232C	When using the communications function on the RS-232C interface,
	add on the communications unit (E53-AK01).
F RS-422	When using the communications function on the RS-422 interface, add
	on the communications unit (E53-AK02).

1.5 About Calibration

1.5 About Calibration

	The E5EK controller is calibrated before shipment from the factory. So,
	the user need not calibrate the E5EK controller during regular use.
	However, if the E5EK controller must be calibrated by the user, use the
	parameters provided for user to calibrate temperature input, analog
	input (voltage, current) and transfer output.
	Also, note that calibration data is updated to the latest value each time
	the E5EK controller is calibrated. Calibration data set before shipment
	from the factory cannot be returned to after calibration by the user.
F Calibrating	The input type selected in the parameter is the item to be calibrated.
inputs	The E5EK is provided with the following four calibration parameters.
	• Thermocouple
	• Platinum resistance thermometer
	• Current input
	• Voltage input
	Two parameters are provided for thermocouple and voltage input.

FCalibrating transfer output

FRegistering calibration data

Transfer output can be calibrated when the communications unit (E53-AKF) is added on.

When calibrating each item, the calibration data is temporarily registered. This data can be registered as final calibration data only when all items have been newly calibrated. So, all items must be temporarily registered when calibrating the E5EK controller.

When registering data, information regarding whether or not calibration has been carried out is also registered.

To calibrate these items, the user must prepare separate measuring devices and equipment. For details on handling these measuring devices and equipment, refer to the respective manuals.

For details, see chapter 7 Calibration.
