Automatic Loop Tuning
Maintains Precise Control
ACCUTUNE, Honeywell’s innovative adaptive
tuning feature is a powerful rules-based expert system
that automatically tunes the controller for peak operat-
ing efficiency. ACCUTUNE lines-out your process
quickly and adjusts PID parameters as required.
When enabled, ACCUTUNE continuously monitors
your process, adjusting the PID constants when necessary
to maintain optimum controller response. Your process
runs closer to specified setpoints – helping your company
produce higher quality products with greater yields,
saving valuable raw materials, and reducing energy costs.
A few simple keystrokes is all it takes to put
ACCUTUNE to work for you; detailed process knowl-
edge is not required. Two tuning criteria selections,
“normal” or “fast”, are available to match the controllers
response to the control strategy.
