SAFETY INSTRUCTION :
This controller is meant for temperature control
applications. It is important to read the manual prior to
installing or commissioning of controller. All safety
related instruction appearing in this manual must be
followed to ensure safety of the operating personnel as
well as the instrument.
GENERAL
vThe controller must be configured correctly for intended
operation. Incorrect configuration could result in
damage to the equipment or the process under control
or it may lead personnel injury.
vThe controller is generally part of control panel and in
such a case the terminals should not remain accessible
to the user after installation.
MECHANICAL
vThe Controller in its installed state must not come in
close proximity to any corrosive/combustible gases,
caustic vapours, oils, steam or any other process by-
products.
vThe Controller in its installed state should not be
exposed to carbon dust, salt air, direct sunlight or
radiant heat.
vAmbient temperature and relative humidity surrounding
the controller must not exceed the maximum specified
limit for proper operation of the controller.
vThe controller in its installed state must be protected
against excessive electrostatic or electromagnetic
interferences. Ventilation holes provided on the chassis
of the instrument are meant for thermal dissipation
hence should not be obstructed in the panel.
ELECTRICAL
vThe controller must be wired as per wiring diagram & it
must comply with local electrical regulation.
vCare must be taken not to connect AC supplies to low
voltage sensor input.
vCircuit breaker or mains s/w with fuse (275V/1A) must
be installed between power supply and supply terminals
to protect the controller from any possible damage due
to high voltage surges of extended duration.
vCircuit breaker and appropriate fuses must be used for
driving high voltage loads to protect the controller from
any possible damage due to short circuit on loads.
vTo minimize pickup of electrical noise, the wiring for low
voltage DC and sensor input must be routed away from
high current power cables. Where it is impractical to do
this, use shielded ground at both ends.
vThe controller should not be wired to a 3-Phase supply
with unearthed star connection. Under fault condition
such supply could rise above 264 VAC which will damage
the controller.
vThe Electrical noise generated by switching inductive
loads might create momentary Fluctuation in display,
alarm latch up, data loss or permanent damage to the
instrument. To reduce this use snubber circuit across
the load.
v It is essential to install a over Temp. Protection device
to avoid any failure of heating system. Apart from
spoiling the product, this could damage the process
being controlled.

Sets the minimum limit for set point adjustment. It can be set from minimum
specified range of selected sensor to HSPL value.
Sets the maximum limit for set point adjustment. It can be set from LSPL value to
maximum specified range of selected sensor.
Function of this parameter is to add/subtract a constant value to the measured PV
to obtain Final PV for control applications. This parameter value needs to be
altered for one of the following reason : -
(i) To compensate for known thermal gradient.
(ii)To match the display values with another recorder or indicator measuring the
same PV.
The controller is equipped with an adaptive digital filter which is used to filter out
any extraneous pulses on the PV. The filtered PV Value is used for all PV
dependent functions. If the PV signal is fluctuating due to noise, increase the filter
time constant value.
User can select between PID or ON-OFF action algorithm to be adopted for
output.
User can select heating logic in which OP1 will remain ON till PV < SP.
(PV increases when output is ON.)
User can select cooling logic in which OP1 will remain ON till PV > SP.
(PV decreases when output is ON.)
This parameter will be prompted only if selected input is RTD or RTD.1 and is
used for BOD application. Here OP1 acts as Heating control & OP2 as Cooling
control.
This parameter will be prompted only if selected control action is PID. Setting this
parameter on higher side will proportionally slows down the rate of rise of PV to
minimize overshoot (this may cause delay to reach SP). Setting on lower side will
proportionally or disabling this parameter will increase the rate of rise of PV
(which may cause overshoot). Disable this option if delay is not required to reach
SP.
This parameter will be prompted only if OCP (over shoot control point) is disabled.
When enabled, User can set the desired RAMP rate in USER list.
When disabled, this parameter will not be prompted in USER list.
This parameter value is set according to the type of sensor (Thermocouple or RTD

User can select direct Alarm Logic in which OP2 will be ON under alarm condition;
otherwise OFF (used for audio visual alarm).
User can select Reverse Alarm Logic in which OP2 will be ON in normal
conditions & will be OFF under alarm conditions (used to trip the process in alarm
conditions).
If this parameter is set as ‘YES’ & Alarm condition persists, it will Disable Alarm
O/P at power ON.
If this parameter is set as ‘NO’ & Alarm condition persists, it will Enable Alarm O/P
at power up.
Once the Alarm is activated, User has following three options to de-activate it.
When PV falls within the programmed limits The Alarm will be de-activated
automatically.
Once the alarm is activated, it remains activated until acknowledged manually by
UP key.
Once the alarm is activated, it can be de-activated either by pressing UP key or
when PV falls within the alarm limits.
If Enabled, User can View & edit the Alarm Set point in USER list.
If disabled, User can not View or edit Alarm Set Point in USER list.

Note : - 1) User can restart soak time at any moment during its execution, by pressing START key for 3 sec.
TABLE 5 : Below listed option will appear only if OP2 is selected as a soak timer.
If set as ‘YES’, soak time value will not be stored at the time of power failure.
If set as ‘NO’ at power ON, soak time will continue from stored value.
(Note: Seconds will not be stored.)
If selected, soak timer will increment (from 0 to set value)
(Note:- User can alter the new time value which should be > elapsed time even if
soak timer is running. If user sets new time value < elapsed time, running timer
will be terminated & End of soak Strategy will be executed.
If selected ,soak timer will decrement (from set value to 0).
(Note:- User can alter the new time value even when soak timer is running. In this
case, balance time of previous set value will be ignored & new cycle will be
executed.
User can define 4 different modes to start the soak timer as follows : -
In this mode, Timer will start after pressing START key for 3 sec., irrespective of
PV.
In this Mode, after power ON Timer starts when PV >= SV. To continue with next
cycle, user has to either switch Power on & off OR press START key for 3 sec
when STRT message is displayed on the lower display.
In this Mode, Timer will start only after pressing START key for 3 sec & PV>=SV
for any of the following conditions.
(1) At every Power ON.
(2) Completion of current soak time cycle.
(3) Power failure during soak time is in progress.
In this Mode, Timer will start only after pressing START key for 3 sec & PV>=SV
for any of the following conditions.
(1) At every Power ON.
(2) Completion of current soak time cycle.
After executing start command, if cycle doesn't complete due to power failure,
cycle will continue whenever PV >= SV after restore of power. No need to press
START key.
It defines the behaviour of the controller at the end of soak timer cycle . Options
are as below. If selected, the controller maintain PV at SP indefinitely irrespective
of start or end of a soak timer.
The controller de-energizes OP1 as soon as the soak time is over. Here upper
display will continue to show PV & lower display will show message "start".Next
cycle will start only when user press START key for 3 sec.
The controller energizes OP2 for a time period programmed via (StdL) parameter
at the end of a soak time cycle. User can utilise OP2 for audio/visual indication.
The controller executes both, the Heater OFF and Alarm ON function as
described above.
User can select the timer base of soak time among the four options as shown.
Minutes & Seconds (Range 99 minutes, 59 seconds).
Minutes (Range 9999 minutes).
Hours & Minutes (Range 99 Hours , 59 minutes).
Hours (Range 9999 Hours).

USER GUIDE : -
ON-OFF ACTION : In this mode, Output (Relay/SSR) remains ON till actual temperature reaches to the set point value. On
reaching to SP, Output turns OFF & remains OFF till actual temperature drops down (in Heat Logic) or raises (in Cool Logic)
equal to hysterisis set by user. (As shown in Fig. 3.1 & 3.2)
AUTO TUNING MODE : In this mode, Controller learns the process characteristics by itself and calculates the required P,I &
D values. It can be performed at any time after power ON but, it is best to start it when the process is at Ambient temperature
in order to minimize overshoot & undershoot. Auto tuning is applied in case of :
(1) Initial set up for a new process.
(2) Substantial change in SP from previous auto tuning value.
(3) Control accuracy is not satisfactory.
If the control performance by using auto-tuning is still unsatisfactory, User can apply further adjustments of P,I & D values as
shown in Table:3 below.

AUTO TUNING MODE : To enter in this mode, Press and hold SHIFT key for minimum 3 sec.
This function will be executed only if selected control action is PID & Auto tune is
Enable.
The Auto-tuning function can be initiated by setting this parameter to YES. The
decimal of LSB flashes till auto tuning function is in progress. During Auto-tuning,
The controller learns the process characteristics by itself & calculates required P, I
& D values.
User can cancel or abort this feature by setting this parameter to NO.
