PROFILE PROGRAMMING
A profile is a set of instructions programmed as a sequence of steps. The controller handles the
profile steps automatically, in sequence. As many as 40 different profiles and a total of 256 steps
can be stored in the Series F4’s non-volatile memory. The 256 steps are grouped by profile. So,
one profile could have 256 steps; or 39 profiles could have 6 steps and one could have 22; or 32
profiles could have eight steps each. The maximum number of steps is 256, and the maximum
number of profiles is 40. Six types of steps are available in the Series F4. They are the building
blocks of ramping profiles. Use the six step types to create simple or Complex profiles involving
all inputs and outputs. The Series F4 prompts you to define each step’s properties, listed below.
• Autostart
• Ramp Time
• Ramp Rate
• Soak
• Jump
• End
Autostart
Autostart pauses a profile until the specified date or day, and time (of a 24-hour-clock). Define
the Autostart by choosing:
•
Day (of the week) or Date
•
Time
Note: To invoke an Autostart step in a profile, you must activate the profile via the Profile Key
and select the Autostart step.
Ramp Time
Ramp Time changes the set point to a new value in a chosen period of time. Ramp Time is the
same for both channels of a dual-channel controller. Define the Ramp Time step by choosing:
•
Wait for an event or process value (Wait for Events are set up in the Setup Page.)
•
Event outputs to turn on or off (if digital outputs are set up as events in the Setup Page)
•
Time (in hours, minutes and seconds)
•
Channel 1 Set Point
•
Channel 2 Set Point (if dual channel)
•
PID set (one of five sets of heat/cool PID parameters per channel, pre-defined in the
operations Page)
•
Guaranteed Soak (requires the actual process value to stay within the Soak Band as set in
the System Menu)
Ramp Rate
Ramp Rate (for single channel only) changes the set point to a new value at a chosen rate.
Define the Ramp Rate step by choosing:
•
Wait for an event or process value; (Wait for Events are set up in the Setup Page.)
•
Event outputs to turn on or off (if digital outputs are set up as events in the Setup Page)
•
Rate (units per minute)
•
Channel 1 Set Point
