 Error
 Cautions during Use
Controller itself does not have errors but there may be error by external input temperature sensor. This function 
is for correcting this error. 
E.g.) If actual temperature is 80
℃
 but controller displays 78
℃
, set input correction value [
IN-B
] as '
002
' and       
controller displays 80
℃
.   
※
As the result of input correction, if current temperature value (PV) is over each temperature range of input 
sensor, it displays '
HHHH
' or '
LLLL
'.
If current temperature (PV) is uctuating repeatedly by rapid change of input signal, it re ects to MV and stable 
control is impossible. Therefore, digital lter function stabilizes current temperature value.
For example, set input digital lter value as 0.4 sec, and it applies digital lter to input values during 0.4 sec and 
displays this values. Current temperature may be different by actual input value.
The function to set control output MV in case of open error. Users are able to set by ON/OFF setting or MV 
setting. It executes control output by set MV regardless of ON/OFF or PID control output.
 ● If Hysteresis is too narrow, hunting (oscillation, 
chattering) could occur due to external noise. 
 ● In case of ON / OFF control mode, even if PV reaches 
stable status, there still occurs hunting. It could be due 
to Hysteresis [
HYS
] SV, load’s response characteristics 
or sensor’s location. In order to reduce hunting to a 
minimum, it is required to take into following factors 
consideration when designing temp. controlling; 
proper Hysteresis [
HYS
], heater’s capacity, thermal 
characteristics, sensor’s response and location.
When selecting P/PD control mode, certain temperature difference 
exists even after PV reaches stable status because heater's rising 
and falling time is inconsistent due to thermal characteristics of 
controlled objects, such as heat capacity, heater capacity. This 
temperature difference is called offset and manual reset [
REST
] 
function is to set/correct offset.
When PV and SV are equal, reset value is 50.0%. After control 
is stable, PV is lower than SV, reset value is over 50.0% or PV is 
higher than SV, reset value is below 50.0%.
Set below 50.0 as reset value 
Set over 50.0 as reset value

3)Sensor break alarm     
The function that alarm output will be ON when sensor is not connected or when sensor's disconnection is 
detected during temperature controlling. You can check whether the sensor is connected with buzzer or other 
units using alarm output contact. It is selectable between standard alarm [
SBaA
] or alarm latch [
SBaB
].
4)Loop break alarm (LBA)
It checks control loop and outputs alarm by temperature change of the subject. For heating control (cooling 
control), when control output MV is 100% (0% for cooling control) and PV is not increased over than LBA 
detection band [
LBaB
] during LBA monitoring time [
LBaT
], or when control output MV is 0% (100% for cooling 
control) and PV is not decreased below than LBA detection band  
[

], alarm output turns ON.

1.  Follow instructions in 'Cautions during Use'. Otherwise, It may cause unexpected accidents.
2.  Check the polarity of the terminals before wiring the temperature sensor. 
For RTD temperature sensor, wire it as 3-wire type, using cables in same thickness and length. 
For thermocouple (CT) temperature sensor, use the designated compensation wire for extending wire.
3.  Keep away from high voltage lines or power lines to prevent inductive noise. 
In case installing power line and input signal line closely, use line lter or varistor at power line and shielded 
wire at input signal line. 
Do not use near the equipment which generates strong magnetic force or high frequency noise.
4. 
 Install a power switch or circuit breaker in the easily accessible place for supplying or disconnecting the power.
5.  Do not use the unit for other purpose (e.g. voltmeter, ammeter), but temperature controller.
6.  When changing the input sensor, turn off the power rst before changing. 
After changing the input sensor, modify the value of the corresponding parameter.
7.  24VAC, 24-48VDC power supply should be insulated and limited voltage/current or Class 2, SELV power 
supply device.
8.  Make a required space around the unit for radiation of heat. 
For accurate temperature measurement, warm up the unit over 20 min after turning on the power.
9.  Make sure that power supply voltage reaches to the rated voltage within 2 sec after supplying power.
10.  Do not wire to terminals which are not used.
