From the home screen, the CONTROL LOOP #1 screen is accessed by pressing the NEXT key
once. CONTROL LOOP #1 is a closed loop PID controller which is assigned to the analog
value measured by channel 30. This can be virtually any pressure, temperature, valve position
or other equipment parameter which can be expressed as an analog value from 0 to 5 volts.
Some typical controlled values would be the discharge pressure of a compressor, the intake
manifold pressure of an engine, the temperature of a cooling system or the chemical
composition of a process output. The first line of the display will indicate the input
channel/output channel and the current value of the controlled parameter. The next line shows
the desired value, the setpoint, of the controlled parameter. The third line shows the current
settings of the loop tuning values; the P: 45% indicates a proportional band setting of 45%, the
I:1s indicates an integral term of 1 second, and the D:450m indicates a derivative value of 450
minutes.
