6 Parameter Settings and Functions

6.3.2.1 Hysteresis Settings
 An ON/OFF control feature is used to define the control output ON/OFF points.
ON_Hysteresis sets the output on point and OFF_Offset sets the off point.
 Setting hysteresis too low can result in hunting induced by disturbance (noise,
chattering, etc.). To minimize hunting, set ON_Hysteresis and OFF_Offset values
according to the heater or cooler's capacity and thermal characteristics, control
subject and sensor response characteristics, installation conditions, and other
defining factors.

6.3.3 PID Control
 PID control is a combination of proportional (P), integral (I), and derivative (D)
controls and offers superb control over control subjects, even with a delay time.
 Proportional control (P) implements smooth, hunting-free control; integral control (I)
automatically corrects offsets; and derivative control (D) speeds up the response to
disturbance. Through these actions, PID control realizes ideal temperature control.
How to apply PID control
 Proportional (P) control: Set both integral and derivative times to
0 after PID control is selected.
 Proportional-Integral (PI) control: Set the derivative time to 0
after PID control is selected.
 Proportional-Derivative (PD) control: Set the integral time to 0
after PID control is selected.
 When using the multi-SV function, the same PID time constant
will be applied to SV0 to SV3.
