3.3 Performing/Canceling Auto-tuning
Auto-tuning should be carried out after setting a target setpoint (SP). Make sure the control-
ler is in automatic operation mode (AUTO) and running state (RUN) before carrying out
auto-tuning. See “ 3.8 Switching between AUTO and MAN,” to change to AUTO and “ 3.7
Switching between Run and Stop,” to change to Run.
NOTE
When on-off control is being used, auto-tuning cannot be carried out. Moreover, do not
perform auto-tuning when controlling any of the following processes.
• Control processes with quick response such as flow control or pressure control
• Processes where even temporary output on/off results in inconvenience
• Processes where a large output change at control element results in inconvenience
• Processes where variations in PV may exceed an allowable range, adversely affect-
