PID SETS 
 
NUMBER OF TUNING PARAMETER SETS—This 
selection lets you choose multiple sets of tuning 
constants (gain, rate, and reset). NOTE:  The Tuning 
Group is automatically configured to have two PID 
sets when a Duplex Control Algorithm is configured. 
 
1 ONLY 
ONE SET ONLY—Only one set of tuning 
parameters is available. Configure the values for: 
    Gain or Proportional Band, 
    Rate, 
    Reset Time
