Parameter Functions & Definitions 5-57
Program Pattern
Function: This parameter allows you to select the type of control when using
the simple program function. If the program functionis set to:
• OFF, the simple program will not operate.
• STOP, the RUN/STOP status will change to STOP after the soak time
has expired.
• CONT, control will continue in RUN status after the soak time has
expired.

(Operation function group)
• Soak Time, Wait Band (Adjustment function group, page 5-39)
• Soak Time Unit (Advanced Setting function group, page 5-96)
Control Period (Heat)
Control Period (Cool)
Conditions of Use: The control method must be configured for 2-PID
control. The cooling control and heating Control Outputs must be relay or
voltage (SSR) types. For the Control Period (cool) parameter the control mode
must be set to heating and cooling.
Function: This parameter allows you to configure the output period (control
period) which is the minimum amount of time between ON cycles of the
heating and cooling outputs. Set the control period taking the control
characteristics and the electrical life expectancy of the output devices into
consideration (especially if a mechanical relay is used).
