◈ Handling Precautions
These handling precautions address issues that can potentially cause the product to
malfunction.
Power & Usage Environment
 Use the rated power only.
 Maintain the controller's ambient temperature between -10℃ and 50℃.
 Turn the power on and allow the temperature controller to warm-up for twenty
minutes before use.
 A power switch or a circuit-breaker is necessary to supply and cut off power to the
product.
 Install the switch or circuit-breaker in the vicinity of the product to facilitate easy
access.
 Use the product in a well-ventilated environment. Otherwise, arrange for ventilation if

necessary.
 Recommended usage conditions are as follows:
 Indoors
 Under 2,000 m altitude
© Copyright Reserved Autonics Co., Ltd. vii

Safety Precautions
 Pollution Degree 2
 Installation Category II
Sensor Input
 If using in an environment where the margin of sensor error cannot be avoided, use
the Input Bias feature to minimize the error margin.
 If using a thermocouple sensor, make sure to use prescribed compensation wire as

extension wire. Failure to do so will produce temperature distortion at the junction
between the thermocouple and the extension wire.
 If using a resistance temperature detector (RTD) sensor, always make connection

with three-wire configuration. In addition, only use three wires of identical material,
thickness and length if you need to extend the line. Variance in wire resistance will
lead to temperature distortion.
 When changing an input sensor, first disconnect power to the product and then
connect the new sensor. Restore power to the product and update the related
parameters either directly from the product or using the PC loader program.
 Always use a line filter on the controller's power line. Also, use shielded wire for the
input signal line, provided it is necessary the power line and the input signal line must
remain close to one another.
Noise Effect
 Isolate the product's wiring from high-voltage lines and power lines to prevent impulse
noise.
 Avoid using the product in the vicinity of high-frequency noise generating devices.
Such as: welding machines, sewing machines, high-capacity SCR controllers, and
high-capacity motors.
 Avoid using the product in the vicinity of radio, television, and wireless devices that
may cause high-frequency interference.
Communication
 Only use twisted pair wires for the communication lines. Attach round ferrules at the
ends of the lines to reduce the impact of external noise.
 Do not have the communication lines in close proximity to the AC power line.
 If possible, use a separate power source (24 VDC) for the communication converter
(SCM-38I, sold separately).

6.1.5 Input Bias Adjustments [PAR3 → IN-B]
 This feature is used to compensate for input bias produced by thermocouples, RTDs,
or analog input devices, NOT by the controller itself.
 The Input Bias Adjustments function is mainly used when the sensor cannot be
attached directly to controlled objects. It is also used to compensate for temperature
variance between the sensor's installation point and the actual measuring point.

If the controller displays 78℃ when the actual temperature is 80℃, set the
input bias (IN-B) to 2 in order to adjust the controller's display temperature
to 80℃.
 Make sure that an accurate temperature variance measurement is

taken before setting values of Input Bias. An inaccurate initial
measurement can lead to greater variance.
 Many of today's temperature sensors are graded by their sensitivity.
Since higher accuracy usually comes at a higher cost, most people
tend to choose sensors with medium sensitivity. Measuring each
sensor's sensitivity bias for Input Bias feature in order to ensure higher
accuracy in temperature reading.
6.1.6 Input Digital Filter [PAR3 → MAV.F]
It is not possible to perform high accuracy control if the PV (Present Value) fluctuates
because of noise elements, disturbance, or instabilities in the input signal. Using the Input
Digital Filter function can stabilize PV to realize more reliable control.

6.2 Control Output
6.2.1 Control Output Mode [PAR3 → O-FT]
 Control output modes for general temperature control include heating, cooling, and
heating and cooling.
 Heating control and cooling control are mutually opposing operations with inverse
outputs.
 The PID time constant varies based on the controlled objects during PID control.

(heater) if PV (Present Value) falls below SV (Setting Value).
6.2.1.2 Cooling Control [PAR3 → O-FT → COOL]
Cooling control mode: the output will be provided in order to supply power to the load
(cooler) if PV (Present Value) rises above SV (Setting Value).

6.2.1.3 Heating and Cooling Control [PAR3 → O-FT → H-C]
Heating and cooling control mode: heating and cooling with a single temperature
controller when it is difficult to control subject temperature with only heating or cooling.
Heating and cooling control mode controls the object using different PID time constants
for each heating and cooling.
It is also possible to set heating and cooling control in both PID control or ON/OFF control
mode. Heating/cooling output can be selected among Relay output, SSR output and
current output depending on model types choosen according to your application
environment. (Note that only standard SSR control is available for SSR output in OUT2.)
For heating and cooling control, OUT1 control output is dedicated to

heating control and OUT2 control output to cooling control.
6.2.1.3.1. Dead band/Overlap Band [PAR2 → DB]
 In heating and cooling control, it is possible to designate a dead band between

heating and cooling control bands based on SV (Setting Value).
 A dead band forms around the SV when DB is set to a positive value. No control
occurs in the dead band area. Therefore, heating and cooling MVs become 0.0% in
the formed dead band.
 An overlap band (simultaneous application of heating and cooling MVs) forms around
the SV when DB is set to a negative value.
 Set DB to 0 when a dead band or an overlap band is not used.

6.2.3 Ramp Settings [PAR2 → RAMU/ RAMD/ rUNT]
 Ramp is a feature used to configure the slope toward SV (Setting Value). The feature
limits change rate of SV and thereby restricts sudden temperature changes (increase
and decrease) in the control subject.
 Ramp is commonly used in applications where rapid temperature changes (increase

and decrease) could impact negatively on the control subject.

6.3.2.1 Hysteresis [PAR2 → hHYS/OFT/cHYS/cOFT]
 Hysteresis is to adjust control output ON/OFF point in ON/OFF control mode.

ON_Hysteresis sets the output on point and OFF_Offset sets the off point.
 Setting hysteresis too low can result in hunting induced by disturbance (noise,
chattering, etc.). To minimize hunting, set ON_Hysteresis and OFF_Offset values with
consideration to the heater or cooler's capacity and thermal characteristics, the
control subject's response characteristics, the sensor's response characteristics and
installation conditions, and other defining factors.
H.HYS Configures ON_Hysteresis for heating control.

6.3.3 PID Control [PAR3 → C-MD → PID]
 PID control is a combination of proportional (P), integral (I), and derivative (D)
controls and offers superb control over the control subjects, even with a delay time.
 Proportional control (P) implements smooth, hunting-free control; integral control (I)
automatically corrects offsets; and derivative control (D) speeds up the response to
disturbance. Through these actions, PID control realizes ideal temperature control.
Applied PID Control Technique

 Proportional Control (P): Select PID control and set the integral and
derivative time to 0000.
 Proportional Integral Control (PI): Select PID control and set the
derivative time to 0000.
 Proportional Derivative Control (PD): Select PID control and set the
integral time to 0000.
 Multi SV: Use the same PID time constant for the values of SV0 to
SV3.

6.3.3.1 Proportional Band Settings [PAR2 → H-P/C-P]
When PV (Present Value) is within the Proportional Band (P), the ON/OFF ratio needs to
be adjusted during the proportional period (T). The defined proportional control (time
proportional control) section is called as the proportional band.

6.3.3.4 Control Period Settings [PAR3 → H-T/C-T]
 If relay or SSR is used to output MV under proportional control, the output is on for a
fixed amount of time (within the control period, as a percentage of the MV) and then
remains off for the rest of the time. The preset period when output ON/OFF takes
place is called the proportional control period.
 Control with SSR output has a faster response than that of relay output. Therefore, by
configuring a shorter control period, more responsive temperature control is achieved.

separately for heating and cooling.

6.3.3.5 Offset Correction/Manual Reset Settings [PAR2 → REST]
When selecting P / PD control mode, there are certain temperature differences even after
PV reaches stable status since heater’s rising and falling time is inconsistent due to
thermal characteristics of control objects, such as heat capacity and the heater capacity.
This temperature difference is called OFFSET. Offset can be corrected using manual
reset.
Setting Factory
Group Default
PAR2 REST 00.0 to 100.0 50.0 %
Manual Reset Adjustments based on Control Results
Under stable control conditions, set the offset to 50% if PV and SV are identical, to over
50.0% if PV is lower than SV, and to below 50.0% if PV is higher than SV.
 The offset correction feature can only be used when proportional

control is in effect. If setting the integral value to 0,the manual reset
parameter will be displayed.
 The user cannot configure the manual reset setting during heating and
cooling control. Instead, the setting is automatically set to 0% for both
heating and cooling.
 Applicable only when integral time is set to 0 (under P control or PD
control only).
 Switching from heating and cooling control to standard control (P, PD
control) automatically configures the reset setting to 50%.

6.3.4 Auto-tuning
In PID control, auto-tuning processes the control subject's thermal characteristics and
thermal response rate, and then determines the necessary PID time constant. Application
of the PID time constant realizes fast response and high precision temperature control.
6.3.4.1 Auto-tuning Start/Stop Setting [PAR2 → AT]
 Auto-tuning automatically stores PID time constants upon termination. These PID
time constants can then be modified by the user to suit their usage environment.
 When auto-tuning is in progress, the AT lamp located on the front of the controller
flashes in 1-second intervals. When auto-tuning finishes, the AT lamp automatically
goes off and the auto-tuning parameter will return to OFF.
 When auto-tuning is in progress and digital input (, ) feature is RUN/STOP
or AUTO/MANUAL, auto-tuning will be automatically ended, if concerned DI is
inputted or a sensor disconnection error occurs. (Restored the PID used prior to the
auto-tuning session)_

or falls below the input range.
 When auto-turning is in progress, parameters can only be referenced
and not altered.
 Auto-tuning is not available in manual control.

6.3.4.2 Auto-tuning Mode Settings [PAR3 → AT.T]

6.4.9 Heater Burnout Alarm [PAR4 → AL-1/AL-2 → HBA]
 When using a heater to raise the temperature of the control subject, the temperature
controller can be set to detect heater disconnection and send out an alarm by
monitoring power supply to the heater.
 Heater disconnection is detected by the controller using a current transformer (C.T.),

which converts the current to the heater to a specific ratio (C.T. ratio) for monitoring. If
the heater current value (CT-A) measured by the C.T. is less than the heater
detection setting value (AL□.L), the heater burnout alarm will activate.
 Heater burnout detection only takes place when the temperature

controller's output is turned on. Otherwise, heater burnout will not be
detected by the controller.
 Detection is only available in models with switching output (Relay
output, SSR standard output). Models with linear output (current, SSR
cycle/phase output) are incapable of detection.
 Current detection is not performed if OUT1's control output time is less
than 250 ms.
 It is recommended to use Autonics designated current transformer (for
50 A).
 Alarm output option can be set to standard alarm (AL-A) or alarm latch
(AL-B).
 In the case of TK4SP models, heater burnout alarm (HBA) mode is not
available.

Set to 00.0 for OFF. Set to 50.0 for ON.
Setting Value Calculation
: Heater Burnout Setting Value = {(Normal Heater Current) + (Heater Burnout Current)}/2
If using a single output heater (Capacity: 200 VAC, 1 KW, 5 A), normal
heater current is 5 A, and burnout heater current is 0 A, the setting value
is calculated as (5 A + 0 A)/2 = 2.5 A. Therefore, heater current values
less than 2.5 A will be deemed heater burnout and the alarm will activate.
When two output heaters (Capacity: 200 VAC, 1 KW, 5 A) are used,
normal heater current is 10 A (5 A X 2 EA). If a single heater burns out,
the heater current becomes 5 A. The setting value is calculated as (10 A +
5 A)/2 = 7.5 A). Heater current values of less than 7.5 A are deemed
heater burnout and the alarm activates.

6.4.10 Alarm Output Deactivation [PAR5 → DI-K→ AL.RE]
 Available only if alarm output option is set to alarm latch or alarm latch and standby
sequence1, alarm latch and standby sequence2. It can be set to turn off alarm output
when alarm output is on, alarm output conditions have been removed, or an alarm
