? Deviation [1 - 2] Exceeded
on %4
Temperature controller PIC: The meas‐
ured temperature deviation (TEMP_DE‐
VIATION) has exceeded the correspond‐
ing MAX_DEVIATION value. The PID
control was not successful to control the
heater with the desired precision on
channel #1. A large deviation is normal
on power-up and immediately following
a change in the temperature setpoint.
Check for:
Improper controller type 'temptype' se‐
lected in the 'App_tempctl' table.
The PID parameters are not optimal.
Fast variation in the ambient tempera‐
ture, airflow or line voltage.Insufficient
air flow. For an air bath heater with 1/8
inch spargers, 3 cfm is adequate for up
to 100 DegC and then 4 cfm should be
used.
A temperature setpoint too high for the
allowed T-rating.
An Air pressure switch that works inter‐
mittently.
A defective DPM.
A defective PECM.
A defective Solid State relay.

? Ramp has no origin [1 - 2]
on %4
Temperature controller PIC: A ramp rate
was set without a prior temperature set‐
point on channel #1. A ramp must have
an initial temperature defined by the pre‐
vious setpoint value.
Set the power-up default ramp value to
0.
