TC
Cycle Time (Output #1):
The Cycle Time for output #1 is
that time where the output is on for a percentage of that
time and off for a percentage of that time, creating a pro-
portioning effect. The Cycle Time is only used when the
controller is used as a P, PI, PD, or PID and when the
output is time proportional as with the relay or DC SSR
driver outputs. The shorter the cycle time, the higher the
proportioning resolution is, and better is the control, but
there will be an increased strain on the output device.
Enter a value that is based on the limitations of your con-
troller’s output type.
Setting range: 1 to 150 secs.
For relay output: Set to 15 secs or more (30 secs typical).
For DC SSR driver output: Set to 1 sec or more
For current output: Set to 0 (normally not indicated)
