Auto tuning [AT]
Hysteresis [HYS]
● When setting ATparameter to ON, front temperature unit
display (℃ or ℉) indicator will be flickering during Auto
tuning. After completing auto tuning, temperature unit
display indicator returns to normal operation and AT
parameter automatically becomes [ON→ OFF].
● Set as OFF to stop auto tuning.
※It keeps previous P, I, D set values.
● If SV is changed during auto tuning mode, auto tuning is
stopped.
● PID time constants figured out through auto tuning function
can be changed.
● If control method [C-MD] is set to ONOF, no parameters
are displayed.
● Finish auto tuning when [OPEN] error occurs during the
operation.
※In case of [OPEN] error, auto tuning operation is not
applicable.
● If Hysteresis is too narrow, hunting (oscillation,
chattering) could occur due to external noise.
● In case of ON / OFF control mode, even if PV reaches
stable status, there still occurs hunting. It could be due
to Hysteresis [HYS] SV, load’s response characteristics
or sensor’s location. In order to reduce hunting to a
minimum, it is required to take into following factors
consideration when designing temp. controlling;
proper Hysteresis [HYS], heater’s capacity, thermal
characteristics, sensor’s response and location.
● Set control output ON / OFF interval in ON / OFF control
mode.
Temperature unit selection [UNIT]
● A function to select display temperature unit
● Unit display indicator will be ON when converting

Input correction [IN-B]
Controller itself does not have errors but there may be error

As the result of input correction, if current temperature
value (PV) is over each temperature range of input
sensor, it displaysHHHH or LLLL.
Input digital filter [MAvF]
If current temperature (PV) is fluctuating repeatedly by rapid
change of input signal, it reflects to MV and stale control is
impossible. Therefore, digital filter function stabilizes current
temperature value.
●For example, set input digital filter value as 0.4 sec, and
it applies digital filter to input values during 0.4 sec and
displays this values. Current temperature may be different
by actual input value.

Manual reset [REST]
When selecting P/PD control mode, certain temperature
difference exists even after PV reaches stable status
because heater's rising and falling time is inconsistent due
to thermal characteristics of controlled objects, such as
heat capacity, heater capacity. This temperature difference
is called offset and manual reset [REST] function is to set/
correct offset.
● When PV and SV are equal, reset value is 50.0%. After
control is stable, PV is lower than SV, reset value is over
50.0% or PV is higher than SV, reset value is below
50.0%.
● Manual reset [REST] by control result
Cool / Heat function [O-FT]
Generally there are two ways to control temperature, one
(Heat-function) is to heat when PV is getting down (Heater).
The other (Cool-function) is to cool when PV is getting
higher (Freezer).
These functions are operating oppositely when it is ON/
OFF control or proportional control. But in this case PID
time constant will be different due to PID time constant
will be decided according to control system when it is PID
control.
● Cool-function [COOL] and heat-function [HEAT] must
be set correctly according to the application, if set as
opposite function, it may cause a fire. (If set cool-function
[COOL] at heater, it will be maintained ON and it may
cause a fire.)
● Avoid changing heat-function to cool-function or cool-
function to heat-function when the unit is operating.
● It is impossible to operate both function at once in this
unit. Therefore, only one function should be selected
only.
SV High/Low limit [H-SV / L-SV]
Control output MV when input sensor line
is broken [ErMV]
● It sets SV high/low limit Limit range of using temperature
within temperature range for each sensor, user can set/
change set temperature (SV) within SV high limit [H-SV]
to SV low limit [L-SV]. (※ L-SV＞H-SV cannot be set.)
● When changing input type [IN-T], SV high limit [H-
SV] and SV low limit [L-SV] of using temperature will
be initialized as max./min.value of sensor temperature
range automatically.

If wire length of A is short, please connect mylar

Application of SSR drive output method
● When the load (Heater etc) is not operated
Please check operation of the OUT indicator located in
front panel of the unit.
If the OUT indicator does not operate, please check the
parameter of all programmed mode.
If indicator is operating, please check the output (Relay,
SSR drive voltage) after separating output line from the
unit.
● When it displays OPEN during operation
This is a warning that external sensor is open.
Please turn off the power and check the wire state of the
sensor. If sensor is not open disconnect sensor line from
the unit and short the input +, - terminal. Turn on the
power of the unit and check the controller displays room
temperature.
If this unit cannot display room temperature, this unit is
broken. Please remove this unit and contact our service
center. (When the input mode is thermocouple, it is
available to display room temperature.)
Proper Usage
Simple "error" diagnosis
● The connection wire of this unit should be separated from
the power line and high voltage line in order to prevent
from inductive noise.
● For crimp terminal, select following shaped terminal (M3)
Max. 5.8mm Max. 5.8mm
● Please install power switch or circuit-breaker in order to
cut power supply off.
● The switch or circuit-breaker should be installed near by
users.
● This unit is designed for temperature controlling only. Do
not apply this unit as a voltage meter or a current meter.
● In case of using RTD sensor, 3-wire type must be used. If
you need to extend the line, 3-wire must be used with the
same thickness as the line. It might cause temperature
difference if the resistance of line is different.
● In case of making power line and input signal line close,
line lter for noise protection should be installed at power
line and input signal line should be shielded.
● Keep away from the high frequency instruments. (High
frequency welding machine & sewing machine, big
capacitive SCR controller)
● When supplying measured input, if HHHH or LLLL is
displayed, measured input may have problem. Turn off
the power and check the line.
● This unit may be used in the following environments.
