Demand
When initiated at the operator
interface or the LPSW
function block, 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 CARB algorithm, and the fuzzy
logic does not alter the CARB 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.
