v 2.3 — September 2015 Altanium Delta3
80 Changing P, I or D Parameter Values
Proportional, Integral and Derivative parameters. The default control mode for all zones is
ART.
To toggle the zone control between ART and PID:
1. Touch the zone to be changed.
2. Under Control Settings, touch the Control Mode field.
3. Select ART or PID.
7.5.22.1 Changing P, I or D Parameter Values
If rerunning ART on a zone has been attempted, and the required control has not been
achieved, switch the zone to PID control and adjust the individual PID parameters to achieve
the required control.
To change the PID settings:
1. Touch the zone to be changed and switch the control mode to PID.
2. Touch the fields containing the values for the P, I or D parameters to display a keypad.
3. Enter the new value for the P, I or D parameter, and touch the Accept button.
4. If necessary, repeat the previous two steps to adjust the other PID parameters.
7.6 Active Reasoning Technology (ART)
Active Reasoning Technology (ART) is the science of applying microprocessor-based control
systems to automatic decision making. It is a control method directed at an active or
continuous learning process, which is tolerant to faulty functions and incorrect operation by
intentionally circumventing the incorrect operation or failure.
Active Reasoning software combined with integrated hardware disseminates information
and makes better process decisions than any modular single input, single output controller.
The ability of all zones to interact with one another and understand the effects of that
interaction is paramount. Totally automatic control is one advantage. During Altanium
startup, the control looks at all zones individually, then looks at comparisons of all zones and
determines any interaction between them. It tests for any earth leakages individually and as
a whole. It then creates the necessary bake out and soft start routines to successfully and
evenly heat the mold.
IMPORTANT!
The zone can be switched back to ART without losing information. The default settings for
the PID are P-15, I-10 and D-2 on all zones.
