Programming
Before you begin programming, determine whether your programs are created using the time unit of “hour and
minute” or “minute and second.” The controller is factory-set to the “hour and minute” time unit. To create
programs using the “minute and second” time unit, change the setpoint of the TMU (Time Unit of Program) setup
parameter to “1”.
Creating programs by setting target setpoint and segment time
As shown in the figure below, this method creates programs by setting a segment time and a target setpoint on a
segment-by-segment basis.
Target
setpoint
Time
PV
Target setpoint set for segment
immediately preceding
or the starting target setpoint if this is
the point of starting program operation
Segment time
This single definite line is
referred to as a segment.
