Model UT320 Digital Indicating Controller is a highly
accurate 1/8 DIN controller, provided with universal input/
output. It has a large display for readings and excellent
monitoring operability with the Auto/Man switching key. In
addition, heating/cooling control, including PID control
with auto-tuning, the overshoot suppressing function
“SUPER” and the hunting suppressing function “SUPER2”
are available as control functions, and a retransmission of
variables or a 15V DC loop power supply are also
equipped as standard. A communication function or 24V
DC loop power supply is available optionally. As described
above, the UT320 is a controller provided with higher
functions and capability than conventional similar-size
controllers.
■Main Features
• The latest in large digital displays has been realized and a
large PV display with characters 12 mm in height has been
employed to be clearly readable from distant locations.
• Universal input and output enable users to set or change
freely the type of measured inputs (thermocouple, RTD or
DCV), measurement range, type of control output (4 to 20
mA current, voltage pulse, or relay contact), etc. from the
front panel.
• Parameters can be easily set using a personal computer.
("Parameter setting tool (model LL100)" sold separately is
required.)
• Various communication function are provided. Communication is possible with personal computer, programable
logic controller, and other controllers.

● Control Computation Functions
Control computation:
Can be selected from the following types:
Continuous PID control, Time-proportional PID
control, Heating/Cooling control (for heating/
cooling type only) or Relay ON/OFF control.
Control cycle time: 250 ms
Number of sets of target setpoints and PID parameters: 4
Target setpoint and PID selection:
PID parameters are provided for every target
setpoint and the set of PID parameters are
selected at the same time that the setpoint
number is selected.
Zone PID selection:
PID parameters are selected depending on the
value of the PV. For selection, the reference
point (PID parameter selection setpoint) or the
reference deviation is used.
Reference point method:
The measuring input range is divided into a
maximum of three zones with up to two
reference points, and PID parameters are
selected (No. 1 PID to No. 3 PID) for every
zone.
No.2PID
Reference point 1
No.1PID
Measuring input range (0%)
Measured value (PV)
Auto-tuning:
Available as standard. If auto-tuning is
operated, PID parameters are automatically set
(limit cycle method).
“SUPER” function:
Overshoots generated by abrupt changes in the
target setpoint or by disturbances can be
suppressed.
“SUPER2” function:
The 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.
0.0% for ON/OFF control)
Integral time = 1 to 6,000 s, or OFF (manual reset)
Derivative time = 1 to 6,000 s, or OFF
Manual reset value = -5.0 to 105.0% of output range
(functions when integral time is off.)
ON/OFF control hysteresis = 0.0 to 100.0% of measured
input range width (0.1 to 0.5% for heating/
cooling control)
Setpoint rate-of-change setting = off, or 0.0 to 100.0%/h or
min. of measured input range width
A PV tracking function operates automatically
when the setpoint is changed, the power is
turned on, or the mode is changed from
manual to automatic.
Direct/reverse action:
The output increase/decrease direction can be
defined corresponding to a positive or
negative deviation.
For heating/cooling control, it is fixed; for the
heating side output, reverse, for the cooling
side output, direct.
Anti-reset windup:
When controller output is limited, normal
integration is superseded by an anti-reset
windup computation to suppress overintegration.
Control output cycle time = 1 to 1000 s (for Time-
proportional PID control) and (the cooling
side output cycle time is also the same when
heating/cooling control is used).
Preset output value = -5.0 to 105.0% of output range
Output tracking: Whether the output bump is provided or
not can be selected by changing the PID
control mode.
Output limiter
Upper limit = Lower limit to 105.0% of output
range
Lower limit = -5.0% of output range to upper
limit
Heating/cooling dead band = -100.0 to 50.0% for output
range
● Signal Computation Functions
Measured input computation:
Bias addition (-100.0 to 100.0% of measured
input range width), and first-order lag filter
(time constant off or 1 to 120 s)
Contact input function:
Target setpoint selection, Auto/Man operating
mode switching, key lock parameter display/
non-display switching
Target setpoint selection can be done for
either a 2-setpoint or 4-setpoint selection.
• If the 2-setpoint selection is set, Auto/Man
mode switching can be used as well.
• If the 4-setpoint selection is set, Auto/Man
switching and key lock parameter display/non-
display switching cannot be used together.
If key lock parameter display/non-display
switching is used, target setpoint selection and
Auto/Man mode switching cannot be used.
● Alarm Functions
Eighteen types of alarm functions are provided. The alarm
status is indicated by the alarm lamp on the front panel.
Also, three points among them can be output as relay contact
outputs.
Alarm types:
PV high limit, PV low limit, Deviation high
limit, Deviation low limit, Deenergized on
deviation high limit, Deenergized deviation
low limit, Deviation high and low limits, High
and low limits within deviation, Deenergized
on PV high limit, Deenergized on PV low
limit, SP high limit, SP low limit, Output high
limit, Output low limit,Heater disconnection
alarm, Sensor prounding alarm,FAIL output.
Alarm output:
3 points. Any three points can be output as
contact outputs among the above alarm. For
heating/cooling control, if cooling side output
is output as a relay contact, up to two alarm
outputs can be used.
Setting ranges for PV, deviation, setpoint and output alarms:
PV/setpoint alarm:
-100.0 to 100.0% of measured input range
Deviation alarm:
-100.0 to 100.0% of measured input range
width
Output alarm:
-5.0 to 105.0% of output range
Alarm hysteresis width:
0.0 to 100.0% of measured input range width
Delay timer:
0.00 to 99.59 (minute, second)
An alarm is output when the delay timer
expires after the alarm setpoint is reached.
Setting for each alarm is possible.
Stand-by action:
Stand-by action can be set to make PV/
deviation alarm OFF during start-up or after
SP change until SP reaches the normal region.
Heater disconnection alarm (optional):
two circuits incorporated
A heater disconnection alarm is output if the
heater current consumption is the disconnection detection value or less. This alarm can be
used for Relay ON/OFF control or timeproportional PID control.
Heater current setting range: 0.0 to 50.0 A
Setting accuracy: ±5% of span ± 1 digit
Heater current detecting resolution: 0.5 A
Time required until disconnection detection is on: 0.2 s
An alarm is output after detecting a change in
control output. If the moving average * of
control output is out of the setting range
(between the high and low limits of the on/off
rate) in spite of the deviation being within a
fixed range (on/off rate detection width) and
control being in stable condition, the sensor is
judged to be in a grounding condition.
* Moving a ver age refers to the av erage value for output
values sampled (fiv e times) in ev ery cycle time .

24V DC Loop Power Supply for Sensor
The controller supplies power to a two-wire transmitter.
Place a resistor (10 to 250Ω)between the controller and the
transmitter, convert a current signal to a voltage signal, and
read it from the PV input.
21.6 to 28.0V DC, maximum supply current is about 30mA
(only for models with 24V DC loop power supply).
Ambient temperature should be 0 to 40°C when using 24V
DC loop power supply for UT320.
