3.6.4 LEARN
LEARN adapts the PID controller of the valve to the vacuum system and its operating conditions. LEARN must be
executed only once during system setup.
The LEARN routine determines the characteristic of the vacuum system. Based on this, the PID controller is able to run
fast and accurate pressure control cycles.
This characteristic depends on various parameters such as chamber volume, conductance and flow regime. Therefore it
must be performed with a specific gas flow according to instruction below.
The result of LEARN is a pressure versus valve position data table. This table is used to adapt the PID parameters. The
data table is stored in the device memory which is power fail save. The data table can be up-/downloaded via ‘Control
Performance Analyzer’ software or remote interface. Due to encoding the data may not be interpreted directly.
By an OPEN VALVE, CLOSE VALVE, POSITION CONTROL or PRESSURE CONTROL command the routine will be
interrupted.
Local operation :
(‘Control View’, ‘Control Performance Analyzer’ or
‘Service Box 2‘)
Remote operation :
(Refer to chapter «Digital inputs» for details)
1. Set OPEN VALVE
2. Set specific gas flow according to calculation
below and wait until flow is stable.
Autolearn does not need to be performed with
the process gas. Instead N
2
or Ar may be used.
3. Set SETPOINT ( = pressure limit for learn) to p
max
(max. pressure to control during process)
4. Set LEARN
Note: Alarm is set as long learn is performed, if
alarm is off, learn is finished.
Go to ‘Learn / LEARN’ menu and follow instructions.
Note: Gasflow calculation according to
recommendation below is done automatically based
on inputs.
5. Reset LEARN
6. Reset OPEN VALVE
Note: Sensor signal must not shift during LEARN. Wait until sensor signal is stable before LEARN is performed.
Note: Learn may take several minutes. Do not interrupt the routine as a single full run is required to ensure fast and
accurate pressure control. The PID controller covers 5% to 5000% of the gas flow which was used for learn.
