Program Controller
(with Custom Computation)
GS 05E01B02-01E
■General
Model UP750 Program Controller is an intelligent, microprocessor based program controller that has the capacity of
300 program patterns, powerful control capability, custom
computation function and a user-friendly display. The
UP750 has many control modes as standard, and all these
functions such as program setting function, control function,
control computation function, signal computation, etc. can
be configured by using the keys on the front panel. The
instrument includes eleven types of predecided control
strategies including cascade, temperature/ humidity, and
more in single or dual loops. Auto-tuning control, an
overshoot suppressing function "SUPER" and a heating
suppressing function "SUPER 2" are standard.
■Main Features
• Extra-large digital display allows the indicated values to be
read even from along distance. LEDs of 20mm height are
used for the process variable display. This is a five-digit
display for higher resolution.
• User-friendly full dot LCD display. Not only the target
setpoint and control related parameters, but also a program
pattern, deviation trend record or an analogue bargraph of
control output value can be displayed on it.
• Huge capacity of 300 program patterns / 3000 segments.
Applicable to a wide range of heat treatment , textile,
environmental chamber and testing application.
•Eleven type of control function, including single-loop
control, cascade control, loop control with PV autoselector, and custom computation function, enabling the
operator to start control operation immidiately after simply
entering the settings.
• The program pattern-2 retransmission function outputs a
program pattern (control setpoint) by way of the retransmission output. This function is used in combination with
retransmission output setup parameter RET 1 or RET 2,
for which target setpoint-2 (SP2) should be selected, and is
used for pattern transmission to another instrumennt
(available for UP mode 1, 2, or 6).
• Custom Computation capability, which allows users’ own
configuration for signals, enables them to realize such
functions as complicated computation for input compensation or sequence logic for input/output.
( “PC-based Custom Computation Building Tool <model
name: LL200> is necessary to use this function.)
• Universal input and output enable users to set or change
freely the type of measured inputs(thermocouple, RTD, or
DCV), measurement input range, type of control output(4
to 20 mA current, voltage pulse, or relay contact) etc. the
front panel.
• Equipped with seven contact inputs and outputs each,
which are further expandable up to 23 inputs and outputs
each by adding contact I/O signal expansion modules.
• Various communication function are provided. Communication is possible with personal computer, programable
logic controller, and other controllers.

■Functional Specifications
● Program Setting Function
“Program setting” allows the setting of a setpoint versus
time. The instrument can store program patterns and change
the pattern according to the operating status. One program
pattern consists of several broken line (segment). The length
of each segment can be set by segment time. Users can also
configure the number of Repeats, Start/Stop, event outputs,
etc.
Program pattern setting capacity: 300 maximum
Number of segment/pattern: 99 maximum
Number of segment: 3000 maximum (sum of segments for
all program patterns)
Number of event: 4000 maximum (sum of events for all
Number of program repeat time: 0 to 999, or unlimited
Segment time: 0 minute 0 s to 59 m i n u t e 5 9 s , o r 0 h 0
Mode of program pattern operation:

repeats.
minute to 59 h 59 minute.
Start (RUN), stop (RESET), paused (hold),
advance, can be executed by an external
contact or instrument operation.
Achieved by contact input or instrument
operation.
The function to delay the progress of the program pattern
when Process variable (PV) does not reach the change of the
target setpoint (SP). The wait function has to parameters: a
wait zone and a wait time.
Wait zone is a range of the deviation, and wait time is the
time to wait for PV to reach the wait zone. If PV reaches the
wait zone within a certain time (wait time), then the program
will advance to the next segment. If PV does not reach the
wait zone even after the wait time pass, then the program
will eventually advance to the next segment.
Wait time: OFF, 0 minute 1 s to 99 minute 59 s or 0 h 1
minute to 99 h 59 s.
Wait zone: 0 to 10 % of measured input range width.
UP mode and Program Setting Function
UP mode with one channel of control: Single-loop control,
Cascade primary-loop control, Loop control with
PV switching, Loop control with PV auto selector,
Loop control with 2 universal inputs switching ,
Cascade control, Cascade control with 2 universal
inputs. Note that Program pattern setting function
is only available with the cascade primary-loop
when Cascade control with 2 universal inputs are
used.
UP mode with two channels of control: Dual-loop control,
Temperature and humidity control. The
following functions are common to dual
program setting functions ( “Program pattern
RUN/RESET”, “The total number of program
segment”) and “Segment time”.
Program Setting Function and PID Parameters
Switching
Controller can switch between PID parameter sets as a
program pattern progresses.
Segment PID selection: PID-parameter numbers being
used can be selected on a segment basis.
Zone PID selection: PID parameter sets are selected
depending on the value of the applied PV
input. Either the reference point method
(reference point: a setpoint for switching
between PID parameter sets) or the reference
deviation method is used for the switching.
Reference point method: Divides the measurement input
range into as many as seven zones using a
maximum of six reference points, and
switching between PID parameter sets is
done on a zone basis.
Reference deviation method: Switches between PID
parameter sets depending on whether the
control deviation (DV) is within the given
reference deviation or exceeding the
deviation. This method has priority over the
reference point method during operation.
Time Events
Time event is selected based on time in the program pattern
Number of time events: 8 points max. per segment (Max. 8
points for per segment the instrument with two
control channels)
Time event display: 4 points (TME1, TME2, TME3,
TME4)
Time event setting point: Start and duration (user settable)
Setting time: 0 minute 0 s to 99 h 59 minute.
PV Events
PV event is the PV/DV alarm function which is configured
in relation with the program pattern.
Number of PV event: max. 8 points per segment
PV event display: 2 points ( PVE1, PVE2 )

inputs (UP mode 15): Process variable for
loop control is automatically selected from
two or three measured inputs by an internal
selector, using two universal inputs and an
auxiliary analog input. When two universal
inputs are configured as measured input,
auxiliary analog input can be used for a
remote setpoint input.
Custom computation control (UP mode 21): Can be
provided by the user using the optional LL200
custom computation building tool.
● Control Computation Functions
In each UP mode, the following control types can be
selected.
Target setpoint and PID parameter: Maximum eight sets of
target setpoint and PID parameters can be set
and stored in a instrument. For Cascade
control and Dual-Loop control type, eight sets
for each main and slave are available.
Auto-tuning: standard
Possible to activate auto-tuning for both loops
of Cascade control, Dual-loop control and
Temperature and humidity control.
“SUPER” function: Overshoots generated by abrupt
changes in the target setpoint or by disturbances can be suppressed.
“SUPER 2” function: This function stabilizes the state of
control that is unstable due to hunting, etc.
without requiring any change in PID constants, when the load and/or gain varies
greatly, or when there is a difference between
the characteristics of temperature zones.
Preset output function: When the instrument is in reset
mode, measured input is burnout, or abnormality is found in an input circuit, users’
preconfigurable preset value is output as a
control output.
Control cycle time: Each cycle time can be selected under
the following conditions

Operation Mode Switching
(Note:Communication enables all the following mode
switching to be excuted.)
AUTO/MANUAL switching: Bump-less switching is
available. Switching between AUTO and
MANUAL mode can be realized by
instrumment operation or by external contact,
and external contact switching has priority to
instrumment operation.
RUN (PRG)/STOP (RESET) switching: Switching can be
realized by the front key or external contact,
and external contact switching takes priority
to the front key. Bump-less switching for
RESET to PROG is available. In PRG mode,
control computation is activated. In RESET
mode, control computation ceases and preset
output value is output as a control output,
while other functions operates normally.
CASCADE/Local SP switching: Switching can be realized
by instrument operation or external contact,
and external contact switching takes priority
to instrument operation. Available when UP
mode is set to “Cascade control” .
