Program progression as step or ramp
The following diagrams show the progression of a setpoint value within a program section as a function
of the "Program progression step" parameter (program controller configuration).
The programmed setpoint value determines the setpoint value at the start of the relevant program sec-
tion.
If "Yes" (step) is specified for the setpoint input, the setpoint value remains constant in the program sec-
tion. It does not change until the next section that has been programmed with a different setpoint value
starts.
If "No" (ramp) is specified for the setpoint input and the next section has been programmed with a differ-
ent setpoint value, the setpoint value follows a ramp course within the program section. The ramp slope
is determined by the section time and the difference between the two setpoint values.
Operating contacts
(setup only)
Activation of operating contacts (contact 1 to contact 4) by selection (drop-
down list)
Selected (checkmark) Operating contact is active
Active operating contacts are displayed in the "Op-
erating contacts" field.
Not selected Operating contact is not active
OK
(setup only)
Press button Before the entered values are applied, it is
checked whether the setpoint values lie within the
limits set in the configuration of the controller.
OK with test
(setup only)
Press button The whole test plan is checked to ensure compli-
ance with the limits set in the configuration of the
controller.
