Key Function
Set/Enter Used to select a parameter or set a parameter. Hold down for
3 seconds to enter the configuration mode.
↵

Used to select automatic or manual mode. The setting toggles

A/M between auto and manual with each keystroke.

Used to change values. Pressing and holding causes the

! " speed of charging to increase.

Configuration
It is important that the controller be set up in the following manner. Failure to do so could result
in incorrect operation, as changing some parameters will change other related functions.

1. Apply power (See Wiring Diagram, pg. 16)

2. Set I/O parameters
3. Set functional parameters
4. Set operation parameters
5. Operate process
6. Set a reasonable medium setpoint
7. Turn AUTOTUNE parameter (AT) on.

CT – Cycle Time: Applies to time proportional relay or pulse outputs only. Cycle time is the the
total on and off time of the output. Small cycle times will provide the most
precise control, but will shorten the life of the replaceable relay. Normal
recommended cycle times: 10-30 seconds

Control output pulse width = control output (%) x cycle time.

C.MD – PID Control Mode: The new strategy uses PV-Derivative PID to eliminate the
negative effect sometimes caused by setpoint changes. When
setpoint changes are to be made, and the process being
controlled has lots of inertia, try setting the control mode to 1
otherwise leave it set to 0.

 APPENDIX
ZON – Zone PID Selection: PID sets may be selected by setpoints or by zone.

If ZON is OFF: If ZON is ON:

SP # 1 uses PID # 1 PID set will be automatically selected based on the process value.
SP # 2 uses PID # 2 This is determined by setting RP1 and RP2 for the PID sets PID1,
SP # 3 uses PID # 3 PID2, and PID3.
SP # 4 uses PID # 4

The 4th PID set is selected when the deviation from setpoint exceeds the value R.DV entered with PID4.
This is shown below.

Important Note: During auto tune, when ZON is on, the auto tune will occur at the midpoint of
the zone no matter what setpoint is selected.

SC – Super Control: Super control uses fuzzy logic to emulate the manipulations of an expert
operator. The fuzzy logic learns how your process operates and then uses
sub-setpoints to eliminate overshoot and improve control performance.

The result is outstanding control performance with totally automatic operation.

AT – Autotune: Yokogawa’s autotune uses the limit cycle method, which does ON/OFF control
to learn the control loops characteristics and then derive the best PID settings.
Great care should be taken when trying to use autotune on a loop that has a fast
response rate like flow or pressure loop.

Autotune offers several choices:

If ZON = OFF: If ZON = ON:

AT1 – Sets PID1 at SP1 AT1 – Sets PID1 at midpoint of Zone 1
AT2 – Sets PID2 at SP2 AT2 – Sets PID1 at midpoint of Zone 2
AT3 – Sets PID3 at SP3 AT3 – Sets PID1 at midpoint of Zone 3
AT4 – Sets PID4 at SP4 AT4 – Sets PID4 at midpoint of instrument range (see diagram in
Zone area of appendix)

FL – Filter: The input filter will reduce the oscillation or fluctuation of the process value. Use the
smallest filter that accomplishes the desired result.

 APPENDIX

UPR/DNR – Setpoint Ramping: Setpoints can be ramped gradually to avoid abrupt setpoint
change and smooth the control. UPR – Defines the rate in an
upper direction. DNR – Defines the rate in a downward
direction.

TMU in the functional parameter menu defines whether this is in units per hour (0) or units per minute (1).
The ramp will be in effect anytime the setpoint is changed, SP NO is changed, or the power is turned on.
When power is turned on, the setpoint will begin at the process value and ramp to the previous setpoint.
