SuperNova PD500 PID Process & Temperature Controllers

Instruction Manual

Introduction

The SuperNova PD500 Series of PID Process & Temperature Controllers is a complete line of PID and on/off controllers. Available in popular 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 DIN sizes, and with a shallow depth behind panel of only 2.5" (63 mm) it is easy to fit into almost any panel, product, or enclosure.

Voltage, current (with external resistor), and direct temperature thermocouple and RTD inputs make it an excellent choice for any control application requiring easy to change, visible set points.

This modern line of controllers shows the process variable (PV), set value (SV), and manipulated value (output level%, MV) on a striking reverse polarity LCD screen. Indicators for units (˚C, ˚F,%, or none)

Auto and manual control modes can be easily changed by holding two buttons, and this is indicated on the front panel to make it easy for operators to know how to use this feature.

Main control outputs can be 4-20 mA (SCR), voltage pulse (SSR), or relay outputs. A secondary relay control output is standard, which allow for one or two direction SV control (i.e., heating and cooling).

Additional outputs may include two SPST alarm relays and a 4-20 mA retransmit output. Other options include a secondary 4-20 mA input to remotely control the set point, and RS-485 for Modbus communication.

A mini-USB port may be used for a direct PC connection to run the SuperNova software for monitoring, programming, and data logging. This USB port is located on the rear behind the panel for PD510 1/16 DIN models, and on the front behind a rubber tab on PD520 and PD530 1/8 and 1/4 DIN models.

Range and Scale Descriptions

FR.L Full Range Low: The temperature range is defined according to the thermocouple or RTD type selected.

The minimum temperature value of this range is referred to as the FR.L (full range, low).

Example: For a type K thermocouple, the FR.L is -200 °C.

FR.H Full Range High: The temperature range is defined according to the thermocouple or RTD type

selected. The maximum temperature value of this range is referred to as the FR.H (full range, high).

Example: For a type K thermocouple, the FR.H is 1370 °C.

SL.L Scale Limit Low: The scale range is used when the input is a process signal, voltage or current (with an

external sense resistor). The minimum scale value of the process input is referred to as the SL.L. This value may be changed with the SL-L parameter to scale the process input to the desired engineering unit.

Example: For a 1 to 5 VDC input, the default SL.L is -1999. To represent an input value of 0 to 100%,

the SL-L parameter would be changed to 0, making the SL.L 0.

SL.H Scale Limit High: The scale range is used when the input is a process signal, a voltage or current (with

an external sense resistor). The maximum scale value of the process input is referred to as the SL.H. This value may be changed with the SL-H parameter to scale the process input to the desired engineering unit.

Example: For a 1 to 5 VDC input, the default SL.H is 9999. To represent an input value of 0 to 100%,

the SL-H parameter would be changed to 100, making the SL.H 100.

Instruction Manual

Engineering Unit Descriptions

During the programming of the controller, there are two types of engineering units referred to, EU, and EUS.

EU: The value in engineering units according to the input range. EUS: The value in engineering units according to the full span of the input.

Engineering Units (EU)

A parameter or other value defined in EU is defined in the actual absolute engineering unit value of the input type (or scaled engineering units for the case of voltage or current inputs).

This means the EU value takes on the actual engineering unit value, which may be negative in some cases. In the example below, the controller has been programmed for a type J thermocouple. A type J thermocouple has a

range of -200°C (FR.L) to 1200°C (FR.H). Any parameter or value using EU unit definitions could be defined in values from -200°C to 1200°C.

If the parameter or value is defined in EU, but listed as a percentage (EU %), 0% represents the value of -200°C and 100% represents a value of 1200°C.

Engineering Unit Span (EUS)

A parameter or other value defined in EUS is defined in the actual engineering units of the input type (or scaled engineering units for the case of voltage or current inputs) but represents the span value in those engineering units.

This means the EUS value is defined in engineering units, but begins at 0, representing the low range of input (FR.L or SL.L) and will not be a negative value, regardless of the actual input range.

In the example below, the controller has been programmed for a type J thermocouple. A type J thermocouple has a range of -200°C (FR.L) to 1200°C (FR.H), but a span of 1400°C. Any parameter or value using EUS unit definitions could be defined in values from 0°C to 1400°C.

If the parameter or value is defined in EUS, but listed as a percentage (EUS %), 0% represents the value of 0°C and 100% represents a value of 1400°C.

Operation & Care Notes

• Please do not clean the controller with organic solvents such as alcohol, benzene, etc. Clean it with neutral detergents.

• If water enters the unit, a short circuit or fire may occur, so please inspect the product carefully.

• For thermocouple input, use the predetermined compensating cable (temperature errors occur when using ordinary cable).

• For RTD input, use a cable with small lead wire resistance and without resistance difference among the 3 wires (temperature errors occur if the resistance value among the 3 wires is different).

• Keep the input signal line away from power line and load line to avoid the influence of inductive noise.

• The input signal line and the output signal lines should be separated from each other. If separation is not possible, use shield wires for the input signal line.

• Use a non-grounded sensor for thermocouple (using a grounded sensor may cause malfunctions).

• When there is a lot of noise from the input power source, we recommend using an isolation transformer and noise filter. Please install the noise filter to a grounded panel or structure and make the wiring of the noise filter output to the controller power supply terminal as short as possible.

• Tightly twisting the power cables helps prevent noise.

• Be sure to program the alarm functions to behave as desired in the case of abnormal operation. Confirm this before operation.

• When replacing the sensor, be sure to turn off the power to the controller.

• Use an intermediate relay when the frequency of operation (such as proportional operation) is high, because connecting the load to the output relay directly may shorten the life of the controller. In these cases, using the voltage pulse/SSR drive output type is recommended.

• When using an electromagnetic relay for control, set the proportional cycle to at least 20 sec.

• When using SSR output for control, set the proportional cycle to at least 1 sec.

• Do not wire anything to unused terminals.

• Confirm all terminal polarities before wiring any

inputs or outputs to avoid damage.

• When you install this product to a panel, use switches or circuit breakers compliant with IEC60947-1 or IEC60947-3.

• Install switches or circuit breakers at close distance for easy user accessibility.

• Specify on the panel that, since switches or circuit breakers are installed, if the switches or circuit breakers are open, the power will be cut off.

Installation

There is no need to remove the controller from its case to complete the installation, wiring, and setup of the controller.

Unpacking

Remove the controller from box. Inspect the packaging and contents for damage. Report damages, if any, to the carrier. If any part is missing or the controller malfunctions, please contact your supplier or the factory for assistance.

Controller Operation

The controller can accept thermocouple, RTD, voltage, or current inputs (4-20 mA with an external resistor). The temperature or process input is displayed as the Process Value (PV), in engineering units from -999 to 9999.

A second line displays the Set Value (SV). This is the desired value the controller will maintain. This value can display -999 to 9999.

The PD520 and PD530 have a third line, the Manipulated Value (MV) or output value. This is the percent full scale of the control outputs. The MV may be displayed on the SV display of a PD510 by pressing the MD key.

Controller Powers-On in STOP Mode

For safety reasons, the controller enters STOP mode on power-up by default. To enter RUN mode and enable the control outputs, press and hold the SHIFT key for two seconds.

In STOP mode, the controller will not display the MV output percent, and the control outputs will be off.

The power-on mode may be changed in the PowerOn Operation Mode (PO.OM) parameter in the Settings Group (G.SET).

Change Control Set Value (SP)

The Set Value can be easily changed to a new control set point by pressing the SET key, and using the UP, DOWN, and SHIFT keys to enter the new set point. When the new Set Value is entered, press the SET key to confirm.

The front panel function keys are also used to change between automatic and manual control modes and lock the controller to prevent accidental changes.

RUN/STOP Modes

The controller has a RUN and STOP mode. Switching between these modes is done by pressing the SHIFT (PAUSE/LEFT arrow) key for two seconds, or by using digital inputs.

In RUN mode, control outputs, SUB alarm outputs, communication, and all other functions operate normally. Auto-tuning can only begin while in run mode.

In STOP mode, control output will operate at 0%, and auto-tuning will not be possible. The MV display will not appear when in STOP mode. Other functions will behave normally.

Menu Timeout

If the controller is left in the programming menus or changing a parameter or set value, it will return to the normal run mode display in 30 seconds.

when first received from the factory. The controller is factory calibrated for all

input types prior to shipment on calibration equipment that is certified to NIST standards.

Overview

There are no jumpers to set for the controller input selection. Setup and programming are done using SuperNova software or through the front panel buttons. After power and input signal connections have been completed and verified, apply power to the controller.

Setting Up the Controller

The Programming Menu is organized into various Groups. These Groups contain individual parameters to configure the functions of the controller.

It is recommended to begin programming by configuring the Input Group (G.IN). Changing certain input parameters will reset most other setup parameters.

Configure the Input Group first. It is then recommended that you proceed to the Output Group, Setup Group, and continue in order, ending with the Set Value Group to enter a control set point. Finally, for most applications, initial auto-tuning in the Control Group.

• Press and hold the Mode button (MD) for one second to enter Programming Mode then press the Down (or Up) arrow button to scroll through the programing groups.

• Hold Mode (MD) at any time to exit and return to Run Mode. Changes made to settings prior to pressing Enter are not saved.

• To enter a Group or change a parameter, press SET.

• Press the Down (or Up) arrow key to scroll through individual parameters within a Group.

• Press the Mode (MD) key when navigating parameters to return to the group menu.

• Changes to the settings are saved to memory only after pressing SET.

• The display moves to the next menu every time a setting is accepted by pressing SET.

Programming the Controller

The following section defines the parameters in each of the setup Group menus.

Set Value Group (G.SV)

The Set Value (SV) Group contains parameters used to program a new Set Value, set limits on the Set Value, or select from existing Set Values.

Set Value and Set Value Number (SV. NO)

The active Set Value is the set point the controller will attempt to maintain. There are four programmable Set Values (SV1 to SV4).

The Set Value Number (SV.NO) parameter selects which programable Set Value number, 1 to 4, is active.

In addition to setting this parameter directly, digital inputs may be used to select from SV1 and SV4 or the remote Set Value input (REM).

The use of digital inputs and the remote SV input will change the behavior of this parameter and selecting which Set Value is used.

• When the digital inputs are enabled the

digital input selection will take precedence over the Set Value Number selected.

• When the remote SV input (REM.E) is ON,

the set value number and programmed set points will be ignored.

• When both the digital inputs are enabled,

and the remote SV input is enabled, using the digital inputs to select SV-4 will use the

REM input to select the Set Value. SV-1 to SV-4 must be within the limits set by the SV High Limit (SV-H) and SV Low Limit (SV-L) parameters.

Set Value High Limit (SV-H) and Set Value Low Limit (SV-L)

These may be used to prevent the setting of unintentional Set Values. Both the selections of SV.NO, as well as the REM SV are limited by these parameters.

The Set Value High Limit (SV-H) will define the high limit of the Set Value.

The Set Value Low Limit (SV-L) will define the low limit of the Set Value.

Set Value 1, 2, 3, and 4 (SV-1, SV-2, SV-3, SV-4)

SV-1, 2, 3, and 4 are the Set Values the controller will try to maintain. Only one Set Value may be used at a time by the controller.

UNIT can be set to °C and °F when a thermocouple or RTD input is selected. The calculation to display each unit type is done automatically.

For mA, VDC, or mVDC inputs, the units may be set to °C and °F, %, or no unit (NONE). The selected unit is displayed, but scaling must be done to properly read the selected unit.

Decimal Point Position (DP-P)

This parameter sets the number of decimal places to be used for mA, VDC, and mVDC inputs. It is used for the display values as well as the scaling parameters SL-L and SL-H.

Scale Low Limit (SL-L)

Set the display value for the desired units when at the low limit of the selected mA, VDC, or mVDC input type. Refer to Figure 23. Input Type and Range Selection to see the default high limit of an input type.

Cold Junction Compensation (RJC)

Reference junction compensation, or cold junction compensation, is used if a thermocouple input type is selected. It is used to maintain an accurate reading of the thermocouple input. This may be turned off for specific applications where this is necessary.

Filter Time (FILT)

The input noise filter is used to compensate for noise of unsteady readings of the input. Noise may impact the PV reading and will also results in sudden changes to the output. Increasing the Filter time will help eliminate the effects of this noise.

However, greatly increasing the filter time will result in a longer delay before changes to the input signal are reflected in the display and control outputs.

Bias Offset for Calibration (BIAS)

This parameter is present when a thermocouple or RTD input type is selected. It allows for an offset to be programmed into the display value. This can be used to adjust the input display value.

Output Group (G.OUT)

The Output Group includes parameters used to configure the general operation of the control outputs.

Heating & Cooling Control Mode

When OUT2 is set to either ONOF or PID, the controller will automatically enter heating and cooling control mode.

In heating and cooling control mode, the Output Action O.ACT parameter is disabled. OUT1 is always the heating side control output, and OUT2 is always the cooling side control output.

Disable Heating & Cooling Control

To disable Heating & Cooling control mode, set OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) to NONE. When this is done, the Output Action (O.ACT) parameter is used to selecting heating (reverse) or cooling (direct) control for OUT1.

Control Period, Heating (CP)

This parameter is used to set the on/off cycle time of OUT1 when in OUT1 Control Mode (CNT1) is set to On/Off (ONOF) control mode. This parameter is only used when OUT1 is a relay or SRR output.

Instruction Manual

OUT1 Control Mode (CNT1)

The control output mode of OUT1 can be selected from On/Off (ONOF) or PID.

OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2)

The control output mode of OUT2 can be selected from NONE, On/Off (ONOF) or PID.

Output Action (O.ACT)

The operation in which the control amount increases when the deviation (PV - SV) is positive is referred to as a direct action, and the operation in which the control amount increases when the deviation is negative is referred to as a reverse action.

You can select direct or reverse action only when OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) is set to NONE

When using a mechanical relay for control, set the control period to at least 20 seconds.

When using SSR output for control, set the control period to at least 1 second.

Control Period, Cooling (CPC)

This parameter is used to set the on/off cycle time of the OUT2 relay when in OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) is set to On/Off (ONOF) control mode.

When using a mechanical relay for control, set the control period to at least 20 seconds.

When using SSR output for control, set the control period to at least 1 second.

Hysteresis, Heating (HYS) and Hysteresis, Cooling (HYSC)

When using on/off control, the hysteresis sets the difference from the on state and the off state of the heating or heating & cooling outputs.

The output deadband of the heating side and cooling sides can be set individually.

The deadband during heating & cooling on/off control is as follows.

Figure 24. Heating & Cooling Hysteresis

Hysteresis (HYS) and Cooling Hysteresis (HYSC) are displayed only when Out1 Control Mode (CNT1) and OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) are programmed for On/Off (ONOF) control respectively.

Emergency Output, Heating (EO) and Emergency Output Cooling (EOC)

This parameter sets the output levels in the case of internal PV calculation error or an input sensor burn out error.

The output conditions of EO and EOC according to the conditions are as follows.

When using only CNT1 (CNT2 as NONE or models without OUT2 option), emergency output EO is generated as shown below according to On/Off and PID settings.

Output Limit High (OL-H) and Low (OL-L)

The output limits high and low restrict the control output (MV) percent output to greater than the minimum and less than the maximum output levels. For models where parameter OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) is set to NONE, Output Limit High (OL-H) is the output high limit and Output Limit Low (OL-L) is the output low limit. The minimum output is 0%, and the maximum output is 100%.

If OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) is not NONE, the OL-H parameter is the heating output high limit, and the OL-L is the cooling output high limit.

Settings Group (G.SET)

The Settings Group includes parameters for general controller setup, such as power-on operation, resetting to factory default settings, or locking parameters to prevent accidental changes. It also contains information on the controller build and firmware version.

Digital Input Mode (DI.MD)

The digital inputs may be enabled (ON) or disabled (OFF).

If enabled, the digital inputs will function per the table below, with digital input 1 (DI1) controlling run/stop mode, and digital input 2 (DI2) determining the use of set value 1 (SV1) or set value 4 (SV4).

In a controller with the remote set value input option, DI2 will determine the use of SV1 or the remote set value input to set the set value.

Power-On Operation Mode (POOM)

The controller can be programmed to enter RUN or STOP mode when it powers on.

Set PO.OM to RUN to be in RUN or control mode when powered on, and PO.OM to STOP to be in STOP or monitoring mode when powered on.

Parameter Initialization (P.INT)

This parameter restores all other parameter settings in the controller to the factory default settings.

the SuperNova Programming Software before resetting all parameters to factory default.

To reset to factory defaults, set this parameter to ON. Once this is done, a Y/N confirmation request will be displayed. Select YES to reset the unit to factory defaults, and NO to cancel the reset request.

Parameter Lock (LOCK)

Use of the parameter lock prevents accidental changes to settings in the controller.

The Lock parameter may be set to the following levels.

If LOCK is set to 0, the parameter lock is off. If LOCK is set to 1, all parameters except LOCK and

all parameters in the G.SV group are locked. If LOCK is 2, all parameters except LOCK are locked. The parameter lock may be set by holding the SHIFT

and SET keys for three seconds. When this is done, LOCK setting 2 is enabled.

Locked parameter groups are read-only accessible by serial communications, and the settings in them cannot be changed via the programming software or Modbus communications.

If you press the SET button to change a parameter has been locked, LOCK will blink. Press the DOWN, UP or MD keys to move to navigate to the next parameter or group.

EEPROM Lock (E2P.L)

The programmed settings of the controller are stored in two types of hardware memory, short-term use RAM and long-term and secure EEPROM.

Very rarely, it is necessary for an application to write new settings by serial communications so often to the controller that it risks reaching the maximum number or read/write operations of EEPROM hardware.

To prevent this, when the EEPROM Lock is ON, all data written by serial communications will be stored in RAM only and will not be stored in EEPROM. Only the Parameter Lock (LOCK) and the EEPROM Lock (E2P.L) will be stored in EEPROM.

As a result of turning on the EEPROM Lock, when a power cycle occurs on the controller, all settings and data received by serial communications will be lost.

This parameter displays system data useful to the factory for troubleshooting.

Option Data (OPT.D)

Communication Group (G.COM)

The Communication Group includes parameters for configuring RS-485 serial communications. The controller supports PC Link and Modbus protocols, with 2-wire half-duplex configuration per the EIA RS-485 standard.

Protocol Select (PRS)

Select the protocol for serial communications. There are four protocols supported.

Parity Bit (PRI)

Select if parity bit function as none (NONE), even (EVEN), or odd (ODD) parity.

Select 1 or 2 stop bits.

Data Length (D.LEN)

Select the data length to be 7 or 8 bits.

Address (ADDR)

The controller communication address can be set as address 1 to 99. Up to 31 devices can be connected on the RS-485 bus, each requiring a unique communication address.

Response Time delay (R P. T M )

The response time delay parameter increases the response time during communications. The response time is the time from the handling of the received data to the start of transmission and is calculated as follows:

Response Time = (Received Data Handling Time) + (Response Time delay Setting X 50 milliseconds)

Instruction Manual

PC Link without Checksum does not have a checksum, it cannot verify data integrity if data is distorted due to communication line noise or other problems. However, PC Link with Checksum and Modbus ASCII or RTU can verify data integrity with a checksum, so it can be used more reliably. Therefore, we recommend not to use PC Link without Checksum if avoidable.

Bits per Second (BPS)

Set the communication speed in bits per second (BPS). Select from the following 6 communication speeds: 4,800 (4.8k), 9,600 (9.6k), 14,400 (14.4k), 19,200 (19.2k), 38,400 (38.4k), or 57,600 (57.6k) bps

Sub Relay Group (G.SUB)

The Sub Relay Group is used to assign alarms to the Sub relays and set relay controls such as on and off delays, fail-safe mode, and latching functions.

Alarm ON Time Delay (An.ND)

When an alarm condition occurs, the alarm will turn on only after the ON time delay. Set the ON time delay in seconds. If the ON time delay is set to zero, the alarm turns on immediately.

Alarm OFF Time Delay (An.FD)

When the alarm condition is cleared, the alarm will turn OFF only after the OFF time delay. Set the OFF time delay in seconds. If the OFF time delay is set to zero, the alarm turns OFF immediately.

While the alarm OFF time delay is set, the latch release function will not operate immediately upon the alarm condition being cleared. The latching alarm may only be reset after the alarm OFF time delay has elapsed.

Instruction Manual

Sub Output Number & Type (SUBn)

The Sub relay outputs can be used for general alarms or loop break alarms.

To set a Sub relay output to be a specific alarm, configure the alarm in the Alarm Group and select the desired alarm as the alarm Type.

For example, to have Sub relay 1 trigger based on the programming for Alarm 3, select ALM3 as the setting for parameter SUB1.

Because only two Sub relay outputs exist on the PD510, the OUT2 relay of the PD510 may be configured to operate as an alarm output.

To setup the OUT2 relay of the PD510 as an alarm output:

1. Set the G.OUT group parameter CNT2 to NONE.

2. Set the G.SUB group parameter SUB3 to ALM3.

3. Set the parameters related to alarm 3 in the G.ALM group.

delays are Set

Alarm Fail-Safe (An.EC)

The sub output relays are type A electromechanical relays. Each has a NO: Normally Open contact.

However, it may be made to function as a Normally Closed contact with the Alarm Fail-Safe parameter.

If NO is selected, the relay functions normally, and energizes in the alarm condition.

If NC is selected, the relay is energized in normal conditions, and de-energizes in alarm conditions. This also means that in the case of a power failure, the relay contact will be de-energized, similar to when in alarm condition.

Page 35

SuperNova PD500 PID Process & Temperature Controllers

Alarm Latch (An.LT)

The latch function is used to hold the alarm output state even after the alarm condition has been cleared (including the deadband).

When An.LT is set to ON, the Alarm Group (G.ALM) parameter An.LR becomes accessible, where n can be any of alarms 1, 2, 3, or 4. The An.LR parameter is set to RST when there is no alarm and becomes SET when an alarm condition occurs.

To release the alarm condition, the Alarm Group (G.ALM) parameter Ax.LR must be set to RST while the alarm condition is cleared. As a shortcut, the operator may press the DOWN or UP arrow keys to reset a latched alarm after the alarm condition has cleared (including the deadband).

Loop Break Alarm ON Time delay (LB.ND)

When a loop break alarm condition occurs, the alarm will turn on only after the ON time delay. Set the ON time delay in seconds. If the ON time delay is set to zero, the alarm turns on immediately.

Loop Break Alarm OFF Time delay (LB.FD)

If a loop break alarm (LBA) is generated and the control output is not 0% or 100%, or the PV enters the Loop Break Deadband (LB.DB) range, the LBA is released. At this time, if LB.FD is set to a value other than zero, it will be released after that many seconds elapse.

Loop Break Alarm Fail-Safe (LB.EC)

The sub output relays are type A electromechanical relays. Each has a NO: Normally Open contact.

However, it may be made to function as a Normally Closed contact with the Loop Break Alarm Fail-Safe parameter.

If NO is selected, the relay functions normally, and energizes in the loop break alarm condition.

If NC is selected, the relay is energized in normal conditions, and de-energizes in loop break alarm conditions. This also means that in the case of a power failure, the relay contact will be de-energized, similar to when in loop break alarm condition.

Loop Break Alarm Latch (LB.LT)

The latch function is used to hold the alarm output state even after the loop break alarm condition has been cleared.

When LB.LT is set to ON, the Alarm Group (G.ALM) parameter LB.LR becomes accessible. The LB.LR parameter is set to RST when there is no alarm and becomes SET when an alarm condition occurs.

To release the loop break alarm condition, the Alarm Group (G.ALM) parameter LB.LR must be set to RST while the alarm condition is cleared. As a shortcut, the operator may press the DOWN or UP arrow keys to reset a latched loop break alarm after the alarm condition has cleared

Transmit & Remote Group (G.TRS)

The Transmit and Remote Group is used to configure the 4-20 mA retransmission output as well as the 4-20 mA remote SV input.

Retransmit Adjustment High (T-AH) and Low (T-AL)

The Retransmit Adjustment High (T-AH) and Retransmit Adjustment Low (T-AL) parameters are used to recalibrate the 4-20 mA retransmit output.

The output may be calibrated by changing the high and low scale PV, SV, or MV values within ±5% of the full scale of the value.

Remote input Operation (REM)

Analog signals from 4 -20 mA (or 1-5 V) can be input to change the set value (SV) remotely.

To accept a 4-20 mA input, connect 250 Ω resistor in parallel to the REM input (a 0.1% high-precision resistor is recommended) and the high and low voltage input ranges of the remote input should be set to 1.000 and 5.000 VDC.

Remote Input Enable (REM.E)

Units with the remote input option can turn on this input by setting the Remote Input Enable (REM.E) parameter to ON.

When REM.E is turned on, the value remotely input to the REM terminals is used as the SV regardless of the set value number selected in the SV.NO parameter.

Instruction Manual

Retransmission Type (RET.T)

The 4-20 mA retransmit output can be based on the process variable (PV), set value (SV), or manipulated PID output value (MV). This parameter sets which of the three values will be the basis of the retransmitted proportional 4-20 mA RET output.

Retransmission Scale High (T-SH) and Low (T-SL)

Retransmission Scale High and Low (T-SH, T-SL) are used to scale the 4-20 mA retransmit output.

The RET output will transmit 20 mA at the value entered for T-SH, and 4 mA at the value entered for T-SL. The 4-20 mA output will linearly scale between the high and low range.

The high and low scale values must be within the full range scale set for the input.

Remote Input Voltage High (REM.H) and Low (REM.L)

Set the voltage maximum and minimum voltage range for the REM input.

Remote Input Scale High (R-SH) and Low (R-SL)

The REM input will set the SV to the Remote Input Scale High (R-SH) value when the high input range is detected, and to the Remote Input Scale Low (R-SL) value when the low input range is detected. The remove input SV range will linearly scale between the high and low range values.

The high and low scale values must be within the voltage high and low range set for the REM input.

Remote Input Adjustment High (R.AH) and Low (R.AL)

The Remote Input Adjustment High (R.AH) and Remote Input Adjustment High (R.SL) parameters are used to recalibrate the 4-20 mA remote SV input.

The input may be calibrated by changing the high and low scale of the input values within ±5% of the full scale of the remote input voltage range.

Alarm Group (G.ALM)

The Alarm Group contains parameters to establish alarm conditions for up to four alarms. These alarms may be assigned to the SUB1 or SUB2 alarm output relays.

This group also contains the programming of the loop break alarm (LBA). This is a special type of alarm that can be assigned to a Sub relay.

During programming of the Alarm Group, references to “n” in the programming menus refers to the number 1, 2, 3, or 4; the alarm number the parameter applies to. For example, An.TY could appear as A1.TY, A2.TY, A3.TY, or A4.TY, each referring to alarm 1, 2, 3, and 4.

Only alarm numbers or LBA settings assigned to the SUB1 or SUB2 relay in the Sub Relay Group (G.SUB) will appear in the Alarm Group (G.ALM). Alarm numbers or LBA settings that are not assigned to a Sub relay will retain their programming and appear in the G.ALM menu if again assigned to a Sub relay.

Figure 26. Alarm Type and Number Table

Alarm Number n Value (AL-n)

The AL-n parameter sets the alarm value for alarms 1, 2, 3, or 4; as indicated in the “n” position of the parameter name.

When the alarm is set as an absolute value alarm, the setting can be any value within the limits of the input type. AL-n is entered as the displayed value, in displayed engineering units, at which the alarm is to turn on.

When the alarm is set as a deviation alarm, the setting can be 0 to 100% of the full range of the input, and is entered in the displayed engineering units, but the number represents the absolute value of the deviation amount at which the alarm turns on.

For example, when a type K thermocouple is used, and the alarm type is set as a high absolute (An.TY set to 1), the setting range of AL-n cab be -200°C to 1,370°C

When the alarm type is set as a high deviation (An.TY is set to 3), the setting range of AL-n can be 0.0°C to 1,570.0°C.

Alarm Number n Deadband (An.DB)

The alarm deadband is the different between the set and reset points of an alarm. An.DB is entered as the deadband for the alarm, entered in displayed engineering units. The alarm deadband can be set as 0 to 100% of the full range of the input, regardless of the alarm being an absolute or deviation alarm

Alarm Operation Examples

High Absolute Alarm Operation

The example below illustrates the operation of a high absolute alarm The alarm turns on when the set point entered in parameter AL-x is reached, where x can be any of alarms 1, 2, 3, or 4. The alarm resets when the PV is below the set point by the Ax.DB number.

Figure 28. High Absolute Alarm Operation

Alarm Standby Mode Operation

Alarms with standby mode will ignore the alarm condition when the alarm on condition is satisfied at the time of power on, changes from STOP to RUN mode, an SV change, or a change to the alarm program settings. The standby alarm will turn on after the alarm release condition has been set.

In the below example, when power is applied to the controller and operation begins, the PV is already in the alarm state, being greater than the AL-x alarm set point. In the case of the standard high absolute alarm, the alarm turns on. However, if a high absolute alarm with standby is used, the alarm will not turn on until after the PV passes below deadband and reset point, and then returns to the higher alarm state.

Figure 29. High Absolute Alarm Operation

Alarm Number n Latch Status (An.LS)

An.LS is the alarm latch reset function, where n can be any of alarms 1, 2, 3, or 4. This parameter is accessible if the Sub Relay Group (G.SUB) parameter An.LT is set to ON.

If the Sub Relay Group (G.SUB) parameter An.LT is set to OFF, this parameter does not appear in the menu. The alarm will automatically reset when the alarm condition is cleared (including deadband).

Releasing an Alarm in Latch State

To release an alarm with the latch status ON, the operator must change this parameter to RST after the alarm condition has cleared (including the deadband).

As a shortcut, the operator may press the DOWN or UP arrow keys to reset a latched alarm after the alarm condition has cleared (including the deadband).

Figure 31. High Absolute Alarm with Latch

Loop Break Alarm (LBA)

The loop break alarm (LBA) is a special type of alarm used to alert operators to a heater break, wiring error, output circuit problems, or other issue with the control loop.

When the control output value in PID or on/off control modes reaches 0% or 100%, the LBA monitors the rate of process variable (PV) change. If the PV does not change by at least the loop break set value amount over the loop break alarm time, the LBA turns on.

Reverse Action LBA Operation

When the control output value is 100% in the reverse action mode (heating control), the LBA alarm output turns on when the temperature does not rise at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM set time. Also, when the control output value is 0%, the LBA output

turns on when the temperature does not fall at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM setting time.

Loop Break Detection Time (LB.TM)

The loop break detection time is usually set to about twice the value of PID coefficient 1. When autotuning is executed, the LB.TM value is automatically set to twice the PID coefficient 1 value.

However, when on/off control is used, LB.TM is not set automatically, so it must be input manually by the user.

Instruction Manual

Figure 32. Loop Break Alarm (LBA) Operation in

Reverse Action Mode

Direct Action LBA Operation

When the control output value is 100% in the direct action mode (cooling control), the LBA output turns on when the temperature does not fall at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM set time. Also, when the control output value is 0%, the LBA output turns on when the temperature does not rise at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM set time.

Heating & Cooling Control LBA Operation

When OUT1 and OUT2 are both configured for control outputs, the controller automatically enters heating and cooling mode. In heating and cooling mode, the controller is automatically set to reverse acting. However, the LBA operates as follows.

When the control output value is 100% on the heating output (H), the LBA alarm output turns on when the temperature does not rise at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM set time.

When the control output value is 100% on the cooling output (C), the LBA alarm output turns on when the temperature does not rise at least the LB.SV value within the LB.TM set time.

LBA Alarm Clear

The LBA is automatically released under the following conditions.

• When the difference between the set value (SV) and process variable (PV) is less than or equal to the Loop Break Alarm Deadband (LB.DB) value.

• When there is no sub relay output assigned to the LBA.

• When the controller is set to the STOP state.

• When performing an auto-tune.

When the control output reaches 100% or 0%, an alarm is generated if the change of the temperature deviation after LB.TM time does not change by more than the Loop Break Alarm Set Value (LB.SV).

Loop Break Alarm Deadband (LB.DB)

Loop Break Set Value (LB.SV)

To prevent malfunctions of the loop break alarm during normal control, set the Loop Break Alarm Deadband (LB.DB). If the PV enters the range of SV ± LB.DB, the LBA will not turn on, or turn off if already on.

The LBA will only work if the PV is less than SVLB.DB or if PV is greater than SV + LB.DB.

Loop Break Alarm Latch Status (LB.LS)

LB.LS is the loop break alarm latch reset function. This parameter is accessible if the Sub Relay Group (G.SUB) parameter LB.LT is set to ON.

If the Sub Relay Group (G.SUB) parameter LB.LT is set to OFF, this parameter does not appear in the menu. The alarm will automatically reset when the alarm condition is cleared (including deadband).

Releasing a Loop break Alarm in Latch State

To release a loop break alarm with the latch status ON, the operator must change this parameter to RST after the loop break alarm condition has cleared.

As a shortcut, the operator may press the DOWN or UP arrow keys to reset a latched alarm after the alarm condition has cleared.

Control Group (G.CTL)

The Control Group contains parameters to begin and adjust auto-tuning, set manual PID parameters, and perform basic control functions such as set value ramp up and down behavior.

During programming of the Control Group, references to “n” in the programming menus refers to the number 1, 2, 3, or 4; the PID group number the parameter applies to. For example, n.PID could appear as 1.PID,

2.PID, 3.PID, and 4.PID.

Auto-Tuning Process

The auto-tuning function automatically measures, computes the control system characteristics, and sets the optimum proportional band (P), integral time (I), and derivative time (D) constants.

When auto-tuning starts, the control output is changed temporarily to ON/OFF control and the optimum PID constants are computed and set from system response data. The TUNE or [T] icon on the display will blink during the auto-tune process.

When the auto-tuning process is complete, the TUNE or [T] icon will turn off and stop blinking.

The time required for AT depends greatly on the control system.

If the auto-tune process has not ended after 24 hours, auto-tune process is automatically canceled, and no PID parameters are set.

If the auto-tune process exceeds 24 hours, the control output will generate an emergency output, the TUNE or [T] icon will keep blinking, and AT.E will be displayed on the PV window.

The SV used for auto-tune is either the SV of the set value number set by parameter SV.NO, or the remote SV if the remote SV input (REM) is selected.

Instruction Manual

Page 45

SuperNova PD500 PID Process & Temperature Controllers

Auto-Tuning Mode (AT.MD)

There are two types of auto-tuning (AT): standard type and low PV type.

Standard type auto-tuning is auto-tuning based on set value (SV).

Low PV type auto-tuning is auto-tuning based on a value 10% lower than set value (SV).

When low PV type auto-tuning is performed, the selected SV is displayed on the device, but the actual operation executes the auto-tuning at SV minus 10%.

For example, if the SV is set to 200°C with a type k thermocouple input type, and the low PV type autotuning is performed, the SV displayed on the device remains 200°C, but the actual auto-tune operation executes the auto-tuning at 160°C.

The calculation formula is as follows. Target value of low

PV mode auto-tune = (SV – FRL) x 0.9 – FRL = (200 – (-200)) x 0.9 – FRL = 160

6. When auto-tuning process has started, the

If the auto-tuning process is completed successfully, the P, I, and D values are automatically set. The P, I, and D parameters are set in the PID group number that matches the selected set value number during the auto-tuning process.

For example, if the set value number selected is set value number 1, then the PID group P, I, and D parameters set are also from PID group number 1.

If the remove SV input is selected for the set value number selected, the P, I, and D values will be set in PID group number 4.

The P, I, and D values are not changed if auto-tuning process is cancelled, fails, or is otherwise ended early.

Auto-Tuning (AT)

This parameter is used to activate the auto-tuning mode.

If AT is set to ON, or if the front panel SET and UP keys are held together for 3 seconds when in run mode, auto-tuning starts.

The AT sequence is as follows:3

1. Select the set value number (SV.NO) to execute the auto-tuning on. In many applications, only one SV number will be used, and the default set value number of one is used

2. Set the desired set value for the selected set value number. It is best to auto-tune to a SV that is in the range the application normally requires.

3. Select from standard or low PV type in parameter AT.MD.

4. Verify the controller is set to run mode. RUN will appear as one of the front panel display indicators.

5. Begin the auto-tuning process with one of the following methods:

a. Set the Control Group (G.CTL)

parameter Auto-Tune (AT) to ON.

Anti-Reset Wind-Up (ARW)

When the control output value (MV) reaches the limit value (OLH, OLL), it executes the anti-reset wind-up operation to prevent over-integration.

Alpha (ALPA)

The response in a typical closed loop control system can be broadly divided into response to set value change and response to disturbance. The normal PID (one-degree-of-freedom) algorithm has the limitation that it can only optimize one response for these two issues. To overcome this limitation, with the application of the two-degree-of-freedom PID algorithm, you can optimize the response to the set value change and obtain an appropriate response to disturbances.

The ALPHA parameter is used to adjust the response characteristics to the set value (SV) changes.

If ALPHA is set to 0%, it is the same as the normal PID control response.

If ALPHA is set to 100%, it may take a long time to reach a normal state, but overshoot and undershoot will be minimized.

Page 46

SuperNova PD500 PID Process & Temperature Controllers

Instruction Manual

Figure 34. Response Adjustment with Alpha

When the Integral Time (n.I) parameter is set to 0 (OFF), the Alpha (ALPA) parameter value will be set to 0 and the ALPA parameter will not appear in the Control Group (G.CTL), and the n.MR parameter will be visible.

If the Integral Time (n.I) parameter is not set to 0 (OFF) in the G.CTL group, the Alpha (ALPA) value will be reset internally to the previously set ALPA value, the n.MR parameter will not be visible in in the Control Group (G.CTL), and the Alpha (ALPA) parameter will be visible.

PID Group Number (n.PID)

N.PID represents selections 1.PID, 2.PID, 3.PID, and

4.PID, PID group numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4. When a group is selected, the P, I, D, and MR values for that group are displayed.

n.P, n.I, n.D values are heating PID parameters, and n.Pc, n.Ic, n.Dc are cooling PID parameters.

The cooling parameters are displayed when Output Group (G.OUT) parameter OUT2 Control Mode (CNT2) is set to PID or ONOF. The PID coefficients are automatically set when auto-tuning is completed, however these parameters allow them to be set directly if the user already knows them, or modifications are desired to the auto-tuning acquired values.

Figure 35. Set Value Ramp Up

SV Ramp Up (RM.UP)

This parameter sets the amount the set value (SV) will ramp up over the desired SV ramp up time.

SV Ramp Up Time (UP.TM)

This parameter sets the ramp time required for the set value (SV) to increase the amount set in the SV Ramp Up (RM.UP) parameter. The time is entered in hours and minutes, in the format hh.mm.

For example, if RM.UP is 60°C and UP.TM is 1 minute, the SV value has a ramp up rate of 1.0°C per second.

SV Ramp Down (RM.DW)

This parameter sets the amount the set value (SV) will ramp down over the desired SV ramp down time.

SV Ramp Down Time (DW.TM)

This parameter sets the ramp time required for the set value (SV) to decrease the amount set in the SV Ramp Down (RM.DW) parameter. The time is entered in hours and minutes, in the format hh.mm.

Set Value Ramp

When the ramp functions are used, the set value (SV) changes over time to reach a newly selected set value. When ramp functions are not used, a newly selected SV immediately becomes the active SV.

To set the ramp function, the ramp time and the amount of SV change desired in that ramp time must be set.

The SV Ramp Up or SV Ramp Down functions are applied when the SV value is changed, or when changing from STOP to RUN modes. When the set SV is changed, the starting SV for the ramp is the current SV. When changing from STOP to RUN mode, the SV starts from current PV and ramps to the new SV.

Figure 36. Set Value Ramp Down

For example, if RM.DW is 60°C and DW.TM is 1 minute, the SV value has a ramp down rate of 1.0°C per second.

Running SuperNova TCS the First Time

The first time SuperNova TCS is run it is necessary to set up the serial communication settings of the program.

Click the Add Serial Communications icon in the upper left menu, as identified below.

Instruction Manual

Select the communication port, protocol, baud rate, serial communications parameters, and addressed of the controller(s) connected. Once the configuration is complete, select Add Port.

Note that for USB connections, it may be required to check what virtual com port is being used for the USB connection in the computer’s Device Manager tool.

Once the port is added, the port(s) and controllers(s) selected will appear in the System menu box on the left side of the screen.

The image below shows on controller assigned address 01 connected to COM4.

The MV display shows a H or C when heating and cooling mode is not required.

Note: Certain sequences of events can cause unexpected results. To solve these issues, it is best to start fresh from factory defaults and use the manual as a step-by-step programming guide, rather than a random approach to programming. To reset the controller to factory defaults, use the Parameter Initialization (P.INT) parameter in the Settings Group (G.SET).

In addition, for best results, we recommend using the free SuperNova TCS software to review all of the controller settings.

Instruction Manual

User Defined Modbus Map

It is possible to map the controller’s fixed Modbus registers to a set of Modbus D-registers from 1200 – 1219. These user defined registers can be any Modbus registers from the set of tables above.

The user defined Modbus map is assigned using D-registers 721 – 740 (addresses 40722 – 40741). To create the user defined Modbus map, write the D-register number of the desired parameters to D-register 721 (address 40722). That parameter’s value will be available in Modbus D-register 1200 (address 41201).

For example, to configure a custom Modbus map of D-register 1200 to D-register 0 for NPV, D-register 1201 to

D-register 1 for NSV, D-register 1202 to D-register 5 for MVOUT, D-register 1203 to D-register 207 for AT, D-register

1204 to D-register 210 for 1.P, D-register 1205 to D-register 211 for 1.C, and D-register 1206 to D-register 212 for

1.D, set the user defined Modbus map as shown below.
