(23)PID Control
1. Output control mode 6. Differential Tim e : D

avalible to set by user.
Main : on/off Aux. : PID

Main : PID Aux. : on/off 7. What is the "PID" Control?

"P" is proportional band and unit = or .It can describe

Main : on/off Aux. : on/off with the following equation:
P = [ ( SV - PV ) * 100 ] / proportional band
2. Output heating &cooling control mode "D" is differential tim e and unit=0.1sec. If "D"=10,10*0.1=1
