Auto tuning
The auto tuning (AT) function is used to calculate PID constant automatically.
It is available for the output 1 and output 2.
The tuning is performed on the executing SV and executable in the constant value operation RUN status
or program operation RUN status (except program end status).
The result of auto tuning for the output 1 is stored in the following parameters automatically.
Executing PID (MODE0)
PID 8 types (MODE3) * Of the eight types, the execution No. selection (operation screen) number
will be reflected only.
The result of auto tuning for the output 2 is stored in the following parameter automatically.
Output 2 PID (MODE7) * For the specification with 2 outputs
There may be a case that PID constant cannot be calculated normally by starting the auto tuning process.
See the following conditions. PID constant will not be changed if the calculation is not performed.
Auto tuning is not completed in six hours from the start due to slow response.
P value calculated by auto tuning is 0.1% or less, or 1000% or more.
I value calculated by auto tuning is one second or less.
D value calculated by auto tuning is one second or less.
Reference
Set "END" to cancel the auto tuning in the middle of the process.
For the specification with 2 outputs, the output on which auto tuning is not executed
continues control.
The auto tuning is not available for remote operation.
The relation between auto tuning and program pattern during program operation is
illustrated below.
Since the progression of program is stopped during auto tuning, a program pattern
makes a parallel shift in the subsequent steps.

Time
A: Auto tuning time
B: After AT finishes, calculated PID constant is used for operation.
C: PID constant of the execution No. set for step n+1 is used for operation.
