OPERATING THE PROCESS CONTROLLER
➔ In all cases, carry out the self-parametrization for positioners (
X.TUNE
).
➔ Via the configuration menu, add the supplementary function
P.CONTRL
to the main menu.
With the function
P.CONTRL
, the function
P.Q'LIN
is also inserted into the main menu.
➔ Call up the basic settings for the process controller under
P.CONTRL.
Linearization of the process characteristic:
If you are dealing with a flow control system, the process characteristic can be linearized
automatically:
➔ Initiate the function
P.Q’LIN.
Self-optimization of the process controller
➔ Activate the function
P.CO TUNE
and initiate self-optimization of the PID parameters of
the process controller.
Activate valve characteristic curve
➔ Initiate the function P.CO KV to activate the valve characteristic.
Read in leakage characteristic
➔ Initiate automatic determination of the leakage characteristic using the functions
P.CO LEAK ➔ P.CO MEAS.

Setting up a process control system
ATTENTION!
In order to be able to operate the TOP Control Continuous as a process controller, you must execute the
following steps:
In all cases, keep to the following sequence! X.TUNE
➔ P.Q’LIN ➔ P.CO TUNE
