ALARM MODE 
 
A1MD/A2MD 

DESCRIPTION 

 

Normal alarm mode/ When timer function is selected, PV<SV timer 
function is not available. 

 

Standby mode When selected, in any alarm function, prevents an alarm 
on power on. The alarm is enabled only when the process value reach 
alarm set point. Also known as “Startup inhibit” and is useful for avoiding 
alarm trips during startup. 

 

Latch mode. When selected, the alarm output and indicator latch as the 
alarm occurs. The alarm output and indicator will be energized even if the 
alarm condition has been cleared unless the power is shut off. 
When Timer function is selected, PV< SV timer function is available. 

 

Standby and latch mode 

 
 

AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL OUTPUT CONTROL 
 

Automatic  control  is  the  normal  mode  of  controller  operation.  In  automatic  control  mode 
the controller automatically adjust the control output percentage by PID algorithm so that 
the  PV=SV.  The  PID  parameter  Pb,  Ti  and  Td  can  be  also  calculated  by  Auto  Tune
