FIG. 4-18 PID SETTINGS DESCRIPTION
Set the PID parameters accordingly to control the process temperature. When the unit is first powered on, all
parameters are set to 0. Press the “
LOAD DEFAULT SETTINGS
” button to establish a parameter base. Tune the
parameters based on the system reaction.
1. Proportional Gain
- Set proportional gain (Kp) value, Range: 1-1000. Establishes proportional band
hysteresis.
2. Integration Factor
- Set integration factor (Ti) value, Range: 0-100. Applies integral value to correct error in
output curve.
3. Derivation Factor
- Set derivation factor (Td) value, Range: 0-50. Stabilizes output curve to minimize over-
correction from integration factor.
4. Load Default Settings
- Loads default PID parameters. Tune the parameters based on system reaction.
