'
button to access the parameter
psx0
. Use the
,
and

Manual Control
1. Access the Initial Setup mode by pressing and holding the
;
button for three seconds. Press the
'
button repeatedly until the parameter
Ctrl
appears. Use the
,
and
.
buttons to select
manu
for
manual control. Press the
;
button twice to save the selected value and return to the controller main screen.
2. Press the
'
button to access the parameter
out1
. Use the
,
and
.
buttons to set a value
between
)0
and
10)0
to control output #1 directly. If the controller has a discrete output, a value of
2)0
turns the output on 20% of the time. A value of
10)0
would turn the output on 100% of the time. A manually
controlled analog output value is a percentage of the analog signal. For example, if the controller has a 4-20mA
current output, a setting of
)0
would mean that the output would be 4mA. The output would be 20mA with a
setting of
10)0
. Both types of manually controlled outputs are off with a value of
00
. Press the
;
button
to save the selected value. For dual output control, press the
'
button to access the parameter
out2
. Use
the
,
and
.
buttons to set a value between
)0
and
10)0
to control output #2 directly. Press the
;
button twice to save the selected value and return to the controller main screen.
