several times until the normal loop display appears. The setpoint of loop 2 will
now be equal to the process variable of loop 1.
5. To complete the remote analog setpoint setup, loop 1 may be configured for outputs
and alarms. Likewise, loop 2 must be configured for inputs, outputs, and alarms. See
for information on loop setup.
Differential Control
Differential control is a simple application of the ratio control option, used to control one process
(ratio loop) at a differential, or offset, to another (master loop). To use differential control, set the ratio
value to 1.0 and enter the desired offset with the
SP DIFF.
parameter.
Differential Control Example: Thermoforming
A thermal forming application requires that the outside heaters operate at a higher temperature than
the center heaters. The differential control point is determined by the master loop which is using
infrared (IR) sensors for temperature feedback. Secondary loops use thermocouples for feedback.
The loop using the IR sensor as an input is assigned to the master loop in the
SETUP LOOP RATIO
CONTROL
menu. The secondary loop is the differential control loop. Setting the setpoint differential
(
SP DIFF
) to the desired offset will produce the desired offset between the secondary and master
loops.
For example, the master loop can be controlled at 325º F and the secondary loop at 375º F by using
a differential of 50º F.
Loop 1 must be set up for PID control of the setpoint at 325º F.
