Notes: 1. 

ON/OFF control with asymmetric hysteresis:

• 

OFF when PV > SP;

• 

ON when PV < (SP - hysteresis).

2. 

ON/OFF control with symmetric hysteresis:

• 

OFF when PV > (SP + hysteresis);

• 

ON when PV < (SP - hysteresis).

[40] Auto - Auto tune selection

Ascon Tecnologic has developed three auto-tune algorithms:

 

Oscillating auto-tune;

 

Fast auto-tune;

 

EvoTune.

1. 

The 

oscillating

 auto-tune is the usual auto-tune and:

• 

It is more accurate;

• 

Can start even if PV is close to the set point;

• 

Can be used even if the set point is close to the 
ambient temperature.

2. 

The 

fast type

 is suitable when:

• 

The process is very slow and you want to be opera-
tive in a short time;

• 

When an overshoot is not acceptable;

• 

In multi-loop machinery where the fast method reduces 
the calculation error due to the effect of the other loops.

3. 

The 

EvoTune

 type is suitable when:

• 

You have no information about your process;

• 

You can not be sure about the end user skills;

• 

You desire an auto tune calculation independently 
from the starting conditions (e.g. set point change 
during tune execution, etc).

Note: 

Fast auto-tune can start only when the measured 
value (PV) is lower than (SP + 1/2 SP).

Available: 

When [39] cont = PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

-4... 8 where:

-4

  Oscillating auto-tune with automatic restart at 

all set point change;

-3

  Oscillating auto-tune with manual start;

-2

  Oscillating auto-tune with automatic start at the 

first power up only;

-1

  Oscillating auto-tune with automatic restart at 

every power up;

 0

  Not used;

 1

  Fast auto tuning with automatic restart at every 

power up;

 2

  Fast auto-tune with automatic start at the first 

power up only;

 3

  FAST auto-tune with manual start;

 4

  FAST auto-tune with automatic restart at all set 

point change.

 5

  EvoTune with automatic restart at every power up;

 6

  EvoTune with automatic start at the first power 

up only;

 7

  EvoTune with manual start;

 8

  EvoTune with automatic restart at all set point 

change.

[41] tunE - Manual start of the auto-tune

Available: 

When [39] cont = PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

oFF 

The instrument is not performing the auto-tune;

on 

The instrument is performing the auto-tune.

[42] HSEt - Hysteresis of the ON/OFF control

Available: 

When [39] cont is different from PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

0... 9999 engineering units.

[43] Pb - Proportional band

Available: 

When [39] cont = PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

1... 9999 engineering units.

Note: 

Auto-tune functions calculate this value.

[44] ti - Integral time

Available: 

When [39] cont = PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

OFF = Integral action excluded;
1... 9999 seconds;
inF= Integral action excluded (reserved).

Note: 

Auto-tune functions calculate this value.

[45] td - Derivative time

Available: 

When [39] cont = PID or 3Pt.

Range: 

oFF - derivative action excluded;
1... 9999 seconds.

Note: 

Auto-tune functions calculate this value.

[46] Fuoc - Fuzzy overshoot control

This parameter reduces the overshoot usually present at 
instrument start up or after a set point change and it will be 
active only in this two cases.
Setting a value between 0.00 and 1.00 it is possible to slow 
down the instrument action during set point approach.
Setting 

Fuoc = 1

 this function is disabled.
