Parameter:  AdaptionLoad 
 
The load controller integrated in the LMV5... is capable of identifying the controlled sys-
tem, of calculating its PID parameters based on the acquired characteristic data and of 
resetting the parameters. In modulating mode, the adaption function is available for 
both temperature and pressure control. In multistage mode, the PID controller is active, 
so that no adaption can be made there. 
 
Adaption can be activated in a number of ways: 
1.  Adaption from manual operation 
  a)  Adaption from shutdown or standby «Burner OFF» 
  b)  Adaption from startup or operation «Burner ON» 
2.  Adaption from automatic operation 
  a)  Start of adaption from shutdown or standby 
  b)  Start of adaption from startup or operation 
 
 
During adaption of the LC, O2 trim control may not be active, since this can 
considerably distort the PID parameters ascertained!

Startup
Saving the startup values and output of the parameterized adaption load
When the temperature or pressure increase changes to a straight line, the delay time Tu
and the maximum increase of the controlled system is ascertained from the measured
values and the start values. These values are then used to calculate the control parameters.
If the adaption load is below 100 %, a correction factor will be used.
Adaption will be terminated or stopped:
  - before the setpoint is reached
  - in the case of unusual developments of the actual value (e.g. pure dead time member
    with extensive dead time)
End of adaption is communicated to the AZL... . If adaption was correct, the control parameters
will be saved in EEPROM. Otherwise, the former control parameters are reinstaled and the
change to modulating control will take place.
Note:
  If adaption was successful, the former control parameters in EEPROM will be overwritten.
  The control then uses the new parameters without waiting for an extra confirmation by the
  user. The new control parameters appear on the AZL... and are valid from now on.
