Pro: (Program) Generator
The basic function of the instrument is defined here. The instrument can be operated
as a fixed-setpoint controller with or without a ramp function, or warm-up ramp for
hot-channel equipment, program controller or program generator.

Ramp function:
A rising or a falling ramp function can be implemented. The
ramp end value is determined by the setpoint input and can be
altered from the I and D keys, just as for a fixed-setpoint
controller.
The ramp function can be paused or canceled via the binary
functions.
v Chapter 8.6 “Binary functions “binF””
Program generator:
Is used, for instance, to output the setpoint profile via a
continuous output without a control function.
Settings for the program generator are not evaluated with
regard to the process value (e. g. start at process value,
continue, tolerance band).
Factory settings are shown bold.
H
The ramp function is interrupted on a probe break, or
for manual mode. The outputs react as for overrange/
underrange (configurable).
