Main Control (OUT 1)
P Value (Proportional Band)
Proportional - Regulates the controller’s output in
proportion to the error signal (the difference between
Process Variable and Setpoint).Range: 0 – 200%
[For On/Off Control, set P1 = 0. The only other
prompt required for setting is HYS 1]
SETSET
Main Control (OUT 1)
I Value (Integral Value)
Integral - Regulates the controller’s output to the size of
the error and the time the error has existed. (The
amount of corrective action depends on the value of
proportional Gain.)
Range: 0 – 3200 seconds
Integral off, I = 0

Main Control (OUT 1)
D Value (Derivative Time)
Derivative – Regulates the controller’s output in
proportion to the rate of change of the error. (The
amount of corrective action depends on the value of
proportional Gain.)
Range: 0 – 900 seconds
Derivative off, D = 0
