6.3.3.3  Derivative time   
In accordance with the deviation of the ramp, the time taken for the MV gained from derivative 
operation to reach the MV gained from proportional control is called the derivative time.

Derivative control is not conducted if the derivative time is set to 0. 
6.3.3.4  Control period 
If relay or SSR is used to send out MV under proportional control, the output is on for a fixed 
amount of time (within the control period, as a percentage of the MV) and then remains off. The 
preset period when output ON/OFF takes place is called the proportional control period. 
Control using SSR drive voltage output has a faster response than that of relay output. Therefore, 
by configuring a shorter control period, more responsive temperature control is achieved.
