Series 9205 Operations Manual Rev A

Example: If a 12 mA output drives a 0 degree F temperature (PV)

UP

to a 1200 degree F temperature (SP),

this would be

REVERSE

, and since this would take a

SINGLE

output from the controller, the Mode for the

Temperature Loop is Single Reverse.

Integral Preset

This field provides an offset for the starting point for PID control, also referred to as “Load Line” or “Manual

Reset”. The range is –100 to 100.

Cycle Time

This field is typically set to the valve travel time multiplied by 1.5. The range is 0 – 500.

Setpoint Change Limit

This is a smart time feature that allows Process Loop to use PB only without Reset until the Process

Variable drops below the percent output set under this category.

It is used to eliminate overshoot.

The Output percentage selected under this category

must

be above the normal operating output percentage

of the furnace at heat.

The options are: OFF, 80%, 70%, 60%, 50%, 40%, 30%, or 20%.

Example: If the furnace runs at 40% output at heat for the maximum load, the setpoint change limit should

be set to 60%.

Control Low Limit

This is the low limit for the loop. The range is –100 to 100.

Control High Limit

This is the high limit for the loop. The range is –100 to 100.

0 Setpoint Stops Control

If the Setpoint is zero, then all outputs are turned off. The option is either Yes or No.

IN1 high limit shuts down ctrl

If input 1’s high limit is reached, then all outputs are turned off. The value can either be Yes or No.

IN2 high limit shuts down ctrl

If input 2’s high limit is reached, then all outputs are turned off. The value can either be Yes or No.

IN3 high limit shuts down ctrl

If input 3’s high limit is reached, then all outputs are turned off. The value can either be Yes or No.

PID Auto Switch

This is the PID auto switch field. The value can either be Yes or No.

PID auto switch is a feature within the instrument that allows multiple PID Loops to be used for various

temperature ranges. This feature can be extremely helpful when a single PID Loop is not accurate across a

wide temperature range. The most common indication that PID auto switching may improve furnace ability

is failure to pass Temperature Uniformity Surveys (TUS). In many examples, a certain PID Loop may prevent

under- or over-shoot at normal operating temperatures; but produce unacceptable overshoot at lower

temperature.

This feature allows the user to utilize (up to) three distinct loops to obtain more accurate heating curves. In

most applications, it is helpful to use the built-in Tuning Assistant feature to determine appropriate PID
