Introduction
The process controller URDR001A is specifically conceived for application on control panels with DIN
rail mounting. It stands out for the bright display which ensures optimal visibility and increased level
of information for the operator beside a scrolling help function.
URDR001A relies on Wachendorff flagship programming mode by NFC/RFID technology with
dedicated Wachendorff EMG App for Android devices (same already used for OLED-Wachendorff
indicators) not requiring wirings and power supply, allowing quick set-up/updates on site.
The outputs can be selected as command/multiple alarm modes/analogue retransmission. Serial
communication RS485 is avaiable with Modbus RTU/Slave protocol. Useful power supply with
extended range 24 to 220VAC / VDC with galvanic insulation.

1.3 Precautions for safe use
Be sure to observe the following precautions to prevent operation failure, malfunction, or adverse
affects on the performance and functions of the product. Not doing so may occasionally result in
unexpected events. Do not handle the Digital Controller in ways that exceed the ratings.
• The product is designed for indoor use only. Do not use or store the product outdoors or in any of
the following places.
- Places directly subject to heat radiated from heating equipment.
- Places subject to splashing liquid or oil atmosphere.
- Places subject to direct sunlight.
- Places subject to dust or corrosive gas (in particular, sulfide gas and ammonia gas).
- Places subject to intense temperature change.
- Places subject to icing and condensation.
- Places subject to vibration and large shocks.
• Installing two or more controllers in close proximity might lead to increased internal temperature
and this might shorten the life cycle of electronic components. It is strongly recommended to
install cooling fans or other air-conditioning devices inside the control cabinet.
• Always check the terminal names and polarity and be sure to wire properly. Do not wire the
terminals that are not used.
• To avoid inductive noise, keep the controller wiring away from power cables that carry high voltages
or large currents. Also, do not wire power lines together with or parallel to Digital Controller
wiring. Using shielded cables and using separate conduits or ducts is recommended. Attach a
surge suppressor or noise filter to peripheral devices that generate noise (in particular motors,
transformers, solenoids, magnetic coils or other equipment that have an inductance component).
When a noise filter is used at the power supply, first check the voltage or current, and attach the
noise filter as close as possible to the Digital Controller. Allow as much space as possible between
the Digital Controller and devices that generate powerful high frequencies (high-frequency
welders, high-frequency sewing machines, etc.) or surge.
• A switch or circuit breaker must be provided close to device. The switch or circuit breaker must be
within easy reach of the operator, and must be marked as a disconnecting means for the controller.
• The device must be protected by a fuse T1A, 250 VAC, time lag, low shut-off capacity.
•
Wipe off any dirt from the Digital Controller with a soft dry cloth. Never use thinners, benzine, alcohol,
or any cleaners that contain these or other organic solvents. Deformation or discoloration may occur.
• The number of non-volatile memory write operations is limited. Therefore, use EEprom write mode
when frequently overwriting data, e.g.: through communications.
• Chemicals/solvents, cleaning agents and other liquids must not be used.
• Non-respect of these instructions may reduce performances and safety of the devices and cause
danger for people and property.
For CT (Current Transformer) input:
• Warning: To reduce risk of electric shock, always open or disconnect circuit from power-distribu-
tion system (or service) of building before installing or servicing current transformers
• For use with Listed Energy-Monitoring Current Transformers
• The current transformers may not be installed in equipment where they exceed 75 percent of the
wiring space of any cross-sectional area within the equipment
• Restrict installation of current transformer in an area where it would block ventilation openings
• Restrict installation of current transformer in an area of breaker arc venting
• Not suitable for Class 2 wiring methods
• Not intended for connection to Class 2 equipment
• Secure current transformer and route conductors so that the conductors do not directly contact
live terminals or bus.

7. 2 Automatic Tune
Automatic tuning procedure allows a precise regulation without delving into the PID regulation
algorithm. Selecting Auto on par. 73 tun.1 (for the regulation loop 1), or on par. 98 tun.2 (for the
regulation loop 2), the controller analyzes the proces oscillations and optimizes the PID parameters.
Led TUN flashes.
If the PID parameters are not yet selected, at the device switch-on, it is automatically launched the
manual Tuning procedure described into the next paragraph.
7. 3 Manual Tune
Manual procedure allows the user greater flexibility to decide when to update
PID algorithm parameters. During the manual tuning, the device generates a step to analyze the
system inertia to be regulated and, according to the collected data, modifies PID parameters.
After selecting Manu. on par. 73 t u n .1 , or on par. 98 tu n.2, the procedure can be activated in three ways:
• Running Tuning by keyboard:
Press FNC until display 2 shows tunE with display 1 on dis. and then press SET: display 1 shows Enab.
Led TUN switches ON and the procedure starts.
• Running Tuning by digital input:
Select tunE on par. 231 d . i .1 . F. (or on par. 239 d.i.2.F.). At first activation of digital input (commutation
on front panel) led TUN led switches on and at second activation switches off.
• Running Tuning by serial input:
Write 1 on word modbus 1216 (command 1) or 1217 (command 2): led TUN switches ON and the
procedure starts. Write 0 to stop the tuning.

13 - URDR001A - User manual
To avoid an overshoot, the treshold where the controller calculates new PID parameters is determined
by this operation:
Tune threshold = Setpoint -
“Set Deviation Tune” (par. 74 s.d.t.1 or par. 99 s.d.t.2)
Ex.: if the sepoint is 100.0 °C and the Par.32 s.d.t.1 is 20.0 °C the threshold to calculate PID parameters
is (100.0 - 20.0) = 80.0 °C.
For a greater precision on PID parameters calculation it is suggested to start the manual tuning
procedure when the process deviates from the setpoint.
7.4 Tuning once
Set once on parameter 73 tun.1, or on parameter 98 tun.2.
Autotuning procedure is executed only once at next DRR244 restart. If the procedure doesn’t work,
will be executed at next restart.
7. 5 Synchronized tuning
Set sYNch . on parameter 73 t u n .1 or on parameter 98 tun.2.
This procedure has been conceived to calculate correct PID values on multi-zone systems, where each
temperature is influenced by the adjacent zones.
Writing on word modbus 1216 (for regulation loop 1) or 1217 (for regulation loop 2) the controller
works as follows:
Word value Action

5Tune not available: softstart function enabled (only reading)
Here below the functioning for regulation loop 1: the master switches-off or turns-on all zones (value
1 or 2 on word 1216) for a time long enough to create inertia on the system.
At this point the autotuning is launched (value 3 on word 1216). The controller executes the procedure
for the calculation of the new PID values. When the procedure ends, the controller switches off the
command output and selects the value 4 on word 1216. The master, who will always read the word
1216, will control the various zones and when all will have finished, will bring to 0 the value of word
1216: the various devices will regulate the temperature independently, with the new calculated values
N.B. The master must read the word 1216 at least every 10 seconds or the controller will automatically
exit the autotuning procedure.

2 Second selection (en.sto.) enables the same functioning but with two important variants:
• If there is a temporary power failure or after switch-off, the manual functioning as well as the
previous output percentage value will be maintained at restarting.
• If the sensor breaks during automatic functioning, the controller switches to manual mode while
maintaining the output percentage command unchanged as generated by the PID immediately
before breakage.
Ex: on an extruder the command in percentage of the resistance (load) is maintained also in case of
input sensor failure.

It is possible to visualize on display 2 the average current, selecting AMPEr. on par. 278 vi . d . 2.
Selecting 0 on par. 290 H. b .A. t. it is possible to visualize the current consumption without generating
an Heater Break Alarm.
7.9 Dual Action (Heating-Cooling)
DRR244 is suitable also for systems requiring a combined heating-cooling action.
The command output has to be configured as PID for Heating (Par. 38 a c . t .1 = Heat and P. b . 1 greater
than 0), and one of the alarms (A L .1 . F. , AL. 2. f. , AL.3. f. , A L.4 . f . , AL.5. f.) has to be configured as c o o L.
The command output must be connected to the actuator responsible for heating, while the alarm will
control cooling action.
Parameters to be configured for the heating PID are:
a c . t .1 = Heat Command output action type (Heating);
P. b . 1: Heating proportional band;
i . t. 1: Integral time of heating and cooling;
d . t. 1: Derivative time of heating and cooling;
c. t. 1: Heating time cycle.
Parameters to be configured for the cooling PID related to regulation loop 1 and alarm 1 are:
A L .1 . F. = co o L. Alarm 1 selection (Cooling);
p.b.m.1: Proportional band multiplier;
o.d.b.1: Overlapping / Dead band;
c. c. t.1: Cooling time cycle.
Par. p.b.m.1 (that ranges from 1.00 to 5.00) determines the proportional band of
cooling action basing on the formula:
Proportional band for cooling action = p. b. 1 x p.b.m.1.
This gives a proportional band for cooling which will be the same as heating band if p.b.m.1 = 1.00, or 5
times greater if p.b.m.1 = 5.00.
Integral and derivative time are the same for both actions.
Par. o.d.b.1 determines the percentage overlapping between the two actions. For systems in which
the heating output and cooling output must never be simultaneously active a Dead Band (o.d.b.1 ≤ 0),
must be configured, vice versa you can configure an overlapping (o.d.b.1 > 0).
The following figure shows an example of dual action PID (heating-cooling) with i. t. 1 = 0 e d . t. 1 = 0.

7.11 Soft-Start Function
DRR244 is provided with two types of softstart selectable on parameter 264 SS. tY. ( “Softstart Type” ).
1 First selection (GrA d .) enables gradient softstart. AAt starting the controller reaches setpoint basing
on the rising gradient set on parameter 266 SS. G r. (
“Softstart Gradient” ) in Unit/hour (ex. °C/h). If
parameter 269 SS . ti . (
“Softstart Time” ) is different to 0, at starting when the time selected on par.
269 is elapsed, the controller stops to follow the gradient and reaches setpoint with the maximum
power.
2 Second selection (PErc.) enables output percentage softstart. On par. 268 SS. tH. it is possible to set
the threshold under which starts the softstart (
“Softstart Threshold” ). On par. 267 SS.PE. ( “Softstart
Percentage”
) an output percentage is selectable (from 0 to 100), which controller keeps until the
process exceeds the threshold set on par. 268 or until the time in minutes set on par. 269 S S . ti .
(
“Softstart Time” word 2084).
If the Sof-Start function is active the automatic/manual Tuning function cannot be activated.
7.12 Pre-Programmed cycle

8 Serial communication
URDR001A is equipped with RS485 and can receive/broadcast data via serial communication using
MODBUS RTU protocol. The device can only be configured as a Slave. This function enables the control
of multiple controllers connected to a supervisory system / SCADA.
Each controller responds to a Master query only if the query contains the same address as parameter
318 sL. a d . (
“Slave Address” ).
The addresses permitted range from 1 to 254 and there must not be controllers with the same address
on the same line.
Address 255 can be used by the Master to communicate with all the connected equipment (broadcast
mode), while with 0 all the devices receive the command, but no response is expected.
The baud rate is selected on parameter 319 bd . rt. (
“Baud Rate” ).
DRR244 can introduce a delay (in milliseconds) of the response to the master request. This delay must
be set on parameter 321 se. d e. (
“Serial Delay” ).
Each parameter modification is saved by the controller in the EEPROM memory (100000 writing cycles),
while the setpoints are saved with a delay of 10 seconds after the last modification.
Changes made to words that are different from those reported in the following table can lead to
malfunction.
