This manual describes key entries for operating the controller. For operations using external contact inputs, see “6. Terminal
Wiring Diagrams” in
Installation User’s Manual
. If you cannot remember how to carry out an operation during
setting, press the
S E T / E N T
key for more than 3 seconds. This brings you to the display (operating display) that appears at
power-on.

NOTE
Do not use the instrument generating strong magnetic field such as radio equipment and the like near the controller.
This may cause the fluctuation of the PV value.
1. Setting Target Setpoint (SP)
The following operating procedure describes an example of setting 120.0 to a target setpoint. In automatic operation, the
controller starts control using set target setpoints.
NOTE
When the target setpoint is set through communication, the target setpoint cannot be changed by keystroke.
Press the or key to display the required
setpoint.
Bring the operating display into view (display
appears at power on).
Press the key once to register the setpoint.

2. Performing/Canceling Auto-tuning
Auto-tuning should be carried out after setting a target setpoint (SP). Make sure the controller is in automatic operation
mode (AUTO) and in running state (RUN) before carrying out auto-tuning. See “7. Switching between AUTO and MAN.” to
change to AUTO and “6. Switching between RUN and STOP,” to change to RUN.
NOTE
When on-off control is being used, auto-tuning cannot be carried out. Moreover, do not perform auto-tuning when
contolling any of following processes.
•
Control processes with quick response such as flow control or pressure control
•
Processes where even temporary output on/off results in inconvenience
•
Processes where a large output change at control element results in inconvenience
•
Processes where variations in PV may exceed an allowable range, adversely affecting product quality
Press the key for more than 3 seconds to call
up the menu “OP.PA”.
Bring the operating display into view (display
appears at power on).

2.
Press the key five times to display the
parameter “AT”.
To cancel auto-tuning, set AT = OFF.
3.
Press the or key to display the required
setpoint. Tuning for 1.SP is AT = 1.
4.
Auto-tuning is complete when the MAN lamp goes off.
During auto-tuning, the panel indications become
as shown below.
Press the key once to register the setpoint.
(This starts auto-tuning.)
If the key is pressed when AT = OFF, auto-
tuning will be cancelled. In this case, PID contains
the value existing before auto-tuning.

Controller behavior and control output manipulation when the dead band is positive
The following is an example when the DB parameter is set at 12.4%.
If you hold down the
key with the heating-side output under manipulation (i.e., cooling-side output C = 0.0%), the
heating-side output (H =) decreases. Consequently, both the heating-side and cooling-side outputs change to 0.0%. If you
keep the
key held down longer, you enter the state of manipulating the cooling-side output, and its value begins to
increase.
Inversely, if you hold down the
key with the cooling-side output under manipulation (i.e., heating-side output H = 0.0%),
the cooling-side output (C =) decreases. Consequently, both the heating-side and cooling-side outputs go to 0.0%. If you
keep the
key held down longer, you enter the state of manipulating the heating-side output, and its value begins to
increase.

■
If a Power Failure Occurs during Operation
●
Momentary power failures shorter than 20 ms
The controller is not affected at all and continues normal operation.
●
Power failures of 20 ms or longer
• The alarm function of the controller continues to work normally. (Alarms with the stand-by feature temporarily return
to their stand-by state, however.)
• Setting parameters that have already been configured retain their settings.
• Auto-tuning is cancelled.
• After recovery from a power failure, control action resumes in the same mode as the one before the occurrence of the
power failure. The control output begins with the preset output value.
■
Troubleshooting When the Controller Fails to Operate Correctly
If your control tasks are not successful, check the preset parameters and controller wiring before concluding the controller to
be defective. The following show some examples of troubleshooting you should refer to in order to avoid the possibility of
other problems.
●
The controller does not show the correct measured input (PV).
• The UT350/UT320 controllers have a universal input.
The type of PV input can be set/changed using the parameter “IN”. At this point, the controller must be wired correctly
according to the selected type of PV input. Check the wiring first if the controller fails to show the correct PV. To do
this, refer to
Initial Settings
User’s Manual
.
With the parameters “RH”, “RL”, “SDP”, “SH” and “SL”, it is possible to scale the input signal and change its number
of decimal places. Also check that these parameters are configured correctly.
●
The controller does not provide any control output or the control output does not
change at all.
• The UT350/UT320 controllers have a universal output.
The type of control output can be set/changed using the parameter “OT”.
At this point, the controller must be wired correctly according to the selected type of control output. Check the wiring
first if the controller provides no control output. To do this, refer to “6. Terminal Wiring Diagrams,” in
Installation
User’s Manual
.
With the parameters “OH” and “OL”, it is possible to set/change the high and low limits of control output. The control
output may not change at all, however, because of restrictions on these parameters. Also check the restrictions on these
parameters.
• The control output can only be changed when the controller is in the MAN mode.
If the MAN lamp is off (i.e., the controller is in the AUTO mode), you cannot change the control output using key
operation.
●
The control output does not change soon after the target setpoint SP has been
changed.
• If this happens, check the setpoint of the parameter “C.MD”. In cases where fixed-point control is selected as the PID
control mode (C.MD = 1), tracking based on the I-term works to prevent the control output from changing suddenly
even if the target setpoint SP is varied.
The control output therefore may appear to be working incorrectly at first; however it gradually adapts itself to the new
target setpoint.
