Glossary
4...20 mA Current used as signal transmitted by cer-
tain sensors or in a specific way to control
a device, such as a motorized valve.
Allarme Output that trips when a certain condition is
reached, for example, a defined temperature.
Auto Tune Function that lets you calculate and easily
set the P, I and D parameters thanks to the
controller’s self-learning.
Cool Control used for cooling.
Heat/Cool Control used for both heating and cooling
(requires two control outputs).
Heat Control used for heating.
Hysteresis When, at a precise moment, the value of
the controlled quantity depends not only on
another reference quantity but also on the
values that the controlled quantity had pre-
viously, there is hysteresis. Hysteresis can
therefore be considered inertia that influen-
ces the control system, causing variable
delays between the change of the reference
quantity and the change of the controlled
quantity.
ON-OFF Control procedure based on activation and
deactivation of the output. For heating, the
output stays on until PV is less than SV by
a certain quantity (offset), and then stays off
until PV is not greater than SV by the same
quantity (or different quantity, depending on
controller configuration). For cooling, the
output stays on until PV > SV - offset and
stays off until PV < SV + offset. This type of
control is not intelligent, does not consider
noise, and is not very accurate, but ensu-
res a limited number of switchings of the
output.
Overshoot Situation in which PV exceeds SV because
the control action stopped too late. The ON
OFF controls have an overshoot greater
than the PID controls.
PID Acronym for Proportional-Integration-Dif-
ferentiation, indicating a system with nega-
tive feedback, i.e., a device that acquires
a value from a process in input, compares
it to a reference value, and uses the diffe-
rence (error) to calculate the value of the
controller output variable, which is the va-
riable that controls the process. The output
is controlled based on the current value of
the error (proportional action), on a set of
previous error values (integral action), and
on the speed of change of the error value
(derivative action).
Pt100 A commonly used temperature measure-
ment device. At 0°C its resistance is 100
ohm, and at room temperature about 106
ohm. The Pt100 can be tested for galvanic
continuity and normal extension cables can
be used.
PV Acronym for Process Value, i.e., the value
that the process variable (temperature, val-
ve opening, etc.) has at that moment.
Solid state Also known as SSR, this is a relay designed
relay specifically for frequent switching. It has no
moving parts or mechanical contacts, but
may still break or short circuit. This type of
relay is often used in temperature control
systems such as PID.
Sensor Device that translates physical phenome-
na (such as change in resistance based on
temperature) into electrical signals that can
be acquired and processed by the control-
ler.
Setpoint Set value (see SV).

80209C_MHW_850-1650-1850_20-2020_ENG_pag. 9
SV Acronym for Set Value, i.e., the value that
the process variable (temperature, valve
opening, etc.) has to reach and maintain.
Thermocouple Sensor that transmits an electrical signal of
a few millivolts. Cannot be tested for galva-
nic continuity. It needs specially designed
extension cable.
Undershoot Situation in which PV does not reach SV
because the control action stopped too
soon. The ON OFF controls have an under-
shoot greater than the PID controls.
Controll Output that controls the process and is
output switched on and off as needed.

1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1. Profile
850 1650 1850
Operator Interface
Large backlit LCD screen with high visibility and high con-
trast. Two to three rows on the screen display variables,
setpoints and alphanumerical information, scrolling up to
75 configurable messages of 32 characters each in three
different languages. The selection of languages and easily
comprehensible scrolling texts regarding diagnostics, alar-
ms, and process statuses ensure that the controllers speak
the users’ language.
Control
One or two PID control loops with two universal inputs con-
figurable for thermocouples, thermoresistances and linear
inputs. They may be used independently to manage two dif-
ferent forms of control or they may interact with cascade or
ratio control. An optional third linear analogue input may be
used to acquire signals such as remote setpoints or retro-
active valve feedback, while also supplying the necessary
potentiometer power supply.
If the appropriate four-point calibration is performed in the
field, the controller meets the requirements of standard AM-
S2750E and may be used in applications requiring the NA-
DCAP directive.
Easy Configuration
Set-up wizard for manual-free programming with only a few
indispensable parameters, commented by online help mes-
sages. Opportunity to create your own password-protected
“User menu” containing only the parameters required for the
application.
Advanced set-up and work recipe creation can be achieved
via PC and GF_eXpress software, even without powering
the controllers. GF_eXpress may be used to define, for each
menu and parameter, which values will be shown to the con-
troller to ensure easy use in the field.
Controllers can still be configured directly in the field using
only four keys, associated with led lights that provide fee-
dback when a button is pressed and guide the user by indi-
cating the appropriate operations. Factory settings can be
restored if necessary, either on the keyboard or using the
GF_eXpress software tool. Diagnostics, preventive mainte-
nance and consumption monitoring.
Exhaustive diagnostics for breakage or incorrect connection
of probes, total or partial load breakdown, off-scale variables
and anomalies in the control ring. Counters for the number of
relay and comparator switches, with alarm thresholds, per-
mit scheduling of preventive maintenance to replace worn
actuators. Two internal energy counters with alarms for ano-
malous variations count total energy consumption in kWh
and its cost, permitting ongoing energy monitoring.
Diagnostics, preventive maintenance and consumption
monitoring.
Exhaustive diagnostics in the event of breakage or incorrect
connection of probes, total or partial breakage of the load,
off-scale variables and anomalies in the adjustment ring.
Relay switch counters and comparators with alarm signals
permit planning of preventive maintenance work for replace-
ment of worn actuators. Two internal energy counters with
alarms for signalling anomalous variations totalise energy
consumption in kWh and its cost, permitting uninterrupted
energy monitoring.
Functional application blocks
Thirty-two logical AND, OR, Flip-Flop, Comparator, Counter
and Timer Function Blocks permit creation of customised lo-
gical sequences for complete, flexible machine control. Eight
mathematical Function Blocks permit processing of analo-
gue variables and calculation of differences, sums, multipli-
cation and division, averages, top and bottom values, square
root calculation and logarithms. Function Blocks also permit
management of 8+8 additional inputs/outputs available for
models 1850 ¼ DIN.

Tuning
Advanced tuning algorithms refined over time guarantee
stable, accurate control even with critical or very rapid ther-
mal systems, automatically activated when necessary.
Timers
Three different types of timer permitting waiting times to be
set before activating control, maintenance times on setpoint
values, and scheduled set changes over time.
Setpoint programmers
Up to 192 steps are available for applications with setpoint
profiles, each with a ramp and maintenance time, which can
freely be grouped into up to 16 programmes. Each segment
may be associated with enabling inputs, event outputs, and
configurable messages to be displayed. In models 1850, the
display also permanently shows the step number and pro-
gramme number underway. Double programmer mode, with
a synchronous or asynchronise timing base, permits activa-
tion of two different setpoint profiles which may be indepen-
dent of one another and may be associated with two control
loops. The clock/weekly calendar function with a real-time
clock and buffer battery facilitate starting and stopping of
various programmes in default automatic mode.
Simplified keyboard configuration permits creation and edi-
ting of simple programmes with only three parameters per
step, with no need for a PC, cables, or configuration softwa-
re, while the extended configuration with Gf_ eXpress also
offers graphic functions for displaying the profiles created.
Valve positioner
Models are available for motorised valve control, with or wi-
thout position feedback. The position of floating valves is
calculated; for valves with potentiomenters, auxiliary inputs
can be used to control valve position and display it in nume-
rical form or in one of 3 configurable bar graphs (for models
1650/1850)
Connectivity
850/1650/1850 “Performance” controllers have three diffe-
rent levels of communication with automation and supervi-
sion devices:
-RS485 Modbus RTU slave serial communication for interfa-
ce with Master Modbus
-RS485 Modbus RTU master serial communication for rea-
ding/writing information toward Modbus slave devices such
as power controllers or other controllers
-RJ45 Ethernet Modbus TCP port, which can also be used
as a bridge toward Modbus RTU slave devices.
An Ethernet connection may be used to access the Web Ser-
ver service offering a number of monitoring, diagnostics and
configuration pages, accessible via local or remote networks
with an ordinary browser and two password levels.
General features
Performance controllers are entirely configurable using the
software and keyboard, without accessing their internal
electronics, but the controller can be replaced at any time by
simply pulling it out from the front, with no further operations,
maintaining IP65 protection for the front.
