On Demand
When initiated, the controller will
start controlling to the setpoint
while it identifies the process,
calculates the tuning constants,
and begins PID control with the
correct tuning parameters.

Fuzzy Overshoot Suppression minimizes overshoot after
a setpoint change or a process disturbance.
The fuzzy logic observes the speed and direction of the
PV signal as it approaches the setpoint and temporarily
modifies the internal controller response action as
necessary to avoid an overshoot.
There is no change to the PID algorithm, and the fuzzy
logic does not alter the PID tuning parameters.
This feature can be independently Enabled or Disabled
as required by the application to work with “TUNE” On-
Demand tuning.
Note on Autotuning:
Accutune is an On-demand tune only. You must provide a 0 to 1 transition to start
another tuning cycle. The tuning will disturb the output to evaluate the tuning constants required.
