5.5 Initial Setting Level (2) 
5-15 
Parameters 
 
SP mode 
Proportional band 
 
The proportional band (P) is set in this parameter. The proportional band for AT (auto-tuning) and 
ST (self-tuning) can also be set automatically.   
•  P operation: Refers to control in which the MV is proportional to the deviation.
 
 
 
Setting range  Unit  Default 
1 to 999  °C/°F 8 
*  When the proportional band is changed manually, the tuning selection 
parameter automatically changes to AT (ST disabled).   
 
ALM mode 
Integral time 
 
The integral time (I) is set in this parameter. The integral time for AT (auto-tuning) and ST 
(self-tuning) can also be set automatically.   
•  I operation: Refers to a control action that is proportional to the time integral 
of the deviation. With proportional control, there is normally an offset (control 
error). Proportional action is thus used in combination with integral action. As 
time passes, this control error disappears, and the control temperature 
(process value) comes to agree with the set point.   
 
 
 
 
Setting range  Unit  Default 
0 to 1999  Second  233 
0 to 99  Minute  4 
* When the integral time is changed manually, the tuning selection 
parameter automatically changes to AT (ST disabled).   
 
IS mode 
Derivative time   
The derivative time (D) is set in this parameter. The derivative time for AT (auto-tuning) and ST 
(self-tuning) can also be set automatically.   
•  D operation: Refers to a control action that is proportional to the time 
derivative of the control error. The proportional control and integral control 
correct for errors in the control result, and thus the control system is late in 
responding to sudden changes in temperature. The derivative action 
increases the MV in proportion to the slope of the change in the 
temperature as a corrective action.   
 
 
 
 
Setting range  Unit  Default 
0 to 1999  Second  40 
*  When the derivative time is changed manually, the tuning selection 
parameter automatically changes to AT (ST disabled).
