FINAL SP 
Within setpoint limits 
SETPOINT RAMP FINAL SETPOINT—Enter the 
value desired for the final setpoint. The controller will 
operate at the setpoint set here when ramp is ended.
ATTENTION If the ramp is on HOLD, the held 
setpoint can be changed by the ▲ and ▼ keys. 
However, the ramp time remaining and original ramp 
rate is not changed. Therefore, when returning to 
RUN mode, the setpoint will ramp at the same rate 
as previous to the local setpoint change and will stop 
if the final setpoint is reached before the time 
expires. If the time expires before the final setpoint is 
reached, it will jump to the final setpoint. 
 ATTENTION  SP RAMP and SP RATE will cause 
the SP portion of Accutune to abort. PV Tune will 
continue to function normally. Ramp is placed into 
HOLD while tuning (TUNE configuration). 
HOTSTART 
DISABLE 
ENABLE 
DISABLE—LSP1 is used as the initial ramp setpoint.
ENABLE—Current PV value is used as the initial 
ramp setpoint. 
SP RATE 
SP Rate operates 
only when both SP 
Ramp and SP 
Programing are in 
HOLD mode or when 
both SP Ramp and 
SP Programming are 
disabled. 
 
 
 
DISABLE 
 
ENABLE 
SETPOINT RATE—Lets you configure a specific 
rate of change for any local setpoint change. 
 
DISABLE SETPOINT RATE—Disables the setpoint 
rate option. 
ENABLE SETPOINT RATE—Allows the SP rate 
feature. 
EU/HR UP 
0 to 9999 in engineering 
units per hour 
RATE UP—Rate up value. When making a setpoint 
change, this is the rate at which the controller will 
change from the original setpoint up to the new one. 
The ramping (current) setpoint can be viewed as 
SPn in the lower display. 
Entering a 0 will imply an immediate step change in 
Setpoint (i.e., no rate applies). 
EU/HR DN 
0 to 9999 in engineering 
units per hour 
RATE DOWN—Rate down value. When making a 
setpoint change, this is the rate at which the 
controller will change from the original setpoint down 
to the new one. The ramping (current) setpoint can 
be viewed as SPn in the lower display. 
Entering a 0 will imply an immediate step change in 
Setpoint (i.e., no rate applies).
