POINTS OF CAUTION
■CONFORMITY WITH EC DIRECTIVES
• This equipment is suitable for Pollution Degree 2 and In-
stallation Category II. Reinforced insulation (signal input
to output to power input: 300V) and basic insulation (sig-
nal input or output or power input to Modbus: 300V) are
maintained. Prior to installation, check that the insula-
tion class of this unit satisfies the system requirements.
• The equipment must be mounted inside a suitable re
enclosure.
• Altitude up to 2000 meters
• The equipment must be installed such that appropriate
clearance and creepage distances are maintained to con-
form to CE requirements. Failure to observe these re-
quirements may invalidate the CE conformance.
• In order to enable the operator to turn off the power input
immediately, install a switch or a circuit breaker accord-
ing to the relevant requirements in IEC 60947-1 and IEC
60947-3 and properly indicate it.
■ENVIRONMENT
• Indoor use
• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the air,
install the unit inside proper housing with sufficient ven-
tilation.
• Do not install the unit where it is subjected to continuous
vibration. Do not subject the unit to physical impact.
• Environmental temperature must be within -10 to +55°C
(14 to 131°F) with relative humidity within 5 to 90% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
■REQUIREMENTS TO ENSURE IP 65
•
Observe the designated panel cutout size (W92 × H92 mm).
• The watertight sealing included in the product package
must be placed behind the front cover.
• Tighten screws of the brackets until the unit is xed to the
panel. (torque 0.5 N·m)
• Conrm visually that the sealing is not contorted or ex-
cessively run off the edge after installation.
■WIRING
• Do not install cables (power supply, input, output and
communication) close to noise sources (relay drive cable,
high frequency line, etc.).
• Do not bind these cables together with those in which
noises are present. Do not install them in the same duct.
• Twist the power cables 1 turn around the ferrite core at
near the unit as shown below.
■UNUSED INPUT CHANNELS
• Unused channels can be specied and set to voltage input
on the PC Configurator Software (model: TC10CFG) to
prevent the error which is possibly caused by open of the
field terminals.
■AND....
• The unit is designed to function as soon as power is sup-
plied, however, a warm up for 10 minutes is required for
satisfying complete performance described in the data
sheet.

UNIVERSAL INPUT
The Controller has two universal inputs (universal input 1, universal input 2) which can be assigned independently for tem-
perature inputs. In addition to RTD and thermocouples, resistor, DC and potentiometer inputs are also usable. The resistor,
DC and potentiometer input is scaled into a temperature range.
Universal input 1 is usually assigned as PV input signal for loop 1, while universal input 2 is for loop 2. Universal input 2
signal can be cascaded into the loop 1 SP.

0
451 Loop 2, Control type
• Standard PID Control
Typical PID control operation is performed by PID1 P (proportional band), PID1 I (integral time) and PID1 D (derivative time)
set in the selected bank. The Controller automatically adjusts the heating control output (MV) to match the setpoint value
(SP) with the universal input value (PV).
• Heating-Cooling PID Control
PID control is applied to both heating and cooling using PID parameters in PID1 (for heating) and PID2 (for cooling) param-
eters.
PARAMETER DESCRIPTIONS SMALLER SET VALUE LARGER SET VALUE
P
(
proportional band )
P output is proportional to the devia-
tion between the input (PV) and the
setpoint (SP).
• Takes shorter time to reach
the target temperature
• Overshooting or cycling
may occur more frequently.
• Takes longer time to
reach the target tempera-
ture
• Overshooting is unlikely
to occur.
I
(integral time)
I output is proportional to the integrat-
ed deviation between PV and SP.
It is used to automatically adjust offset
by P output.
• Takes shorter time to reach
the target temperature
• Overshooting, undershoot-
ing, or cycling may occur to
a greater degree.
• Takes longer time to
reach the target tempera-
ture
• Overshooting, under-
shooting, or cycling may
be diminished.
D
(derivative time)
D output is proportional to the deriva-
tive of deviation between PV and SP.
It is used as a corrective action against
changes in PV and SP.
• Overshooting or under-
shooting may occur to a
greater degree.
• Overshooting or under-
shooting may be dimin-
ished.
• Small hunting may occur.
• Heating-Cooling ON/OFF Control
The control output is turned on until the universal input (PV) matches the setpoint value (SP) and then turned off. Heating
control is applied when the SP is greater than the PV, while cooling control is applied when the SP is smaller than the PV.
The output is turned on again if the PV is deviated from the SP again, but the sensitivity to react to a deviation can be set for
heating and cooling respectively.
■DIRECT/REVERSE ACTION
Direct or reverse action can be specified for the standard PID control.
Choose ‘reverse’ action when the MV should be decreased with an increasing PV (typical heating control), and ‘direct’ action
when the MV should be increased (typical cooling control).
Disregarded if the selected control strategy is other than the standard PID control.

202 Loop 1, MV at STOP
203 Loop 1, MV at error
457 Loop 2, MV at startup
458 Loop 2, MV at STOP
459 Loop 2, MV at error
With standard PID control, -5.00 is used for any value below -5.00.
With heating-cooling PID control, negative value is applied for cooling control.
With ON/OFF control, cooling control is turned on at -100.00, both cooling and heating is off at 0.00, and heating is on at
100.00.
With MANUAL control mode, the MV at startup is applied at the startup, however, once the Controller transits from AUTO
to MANUAL, the MV value at the moment of the transition is carried on.
The Controller’s action is determined in the following priority order: MANUAL > STOP > Error.
■MV LOW LIMIT / MV HIGH LIMIT
Specify the lower and the upper limits for the MV.
For example, if the MV range is set to 0.00 −50.00, setting 50.00 is used for setting 70.00 automatically.
