7.6.3 Set Point Start Condition – Current PV
Selecting Current PV reduces the delay between the end of a program and the beginning of the next
program. The process variable value is used as the program start point and the set point steps up to the
process variable value. This has the effect of changing the overall segment time and maintains a constant
ramp rate.
