Wiring Power to the Controller

• Be sure to use the rated power supply voltage and polarity for the unit
to protect it against damage and to prevent the occurrence of failure.
• Keep the power off until all of the wiring is completed to prevent elec-
tric shock and abnormal operation.
• Keep the power supply wires separated from the input and output
wires.
• Power connections should be made with 18-gauge or larger insulated
wire. Stranded wire improves noise immunity. Noise hiters and isola-
tion transformers are recommended in case of noisy power lines.
• When the Heater Break option is selected, use the same power line
for both the controller and the heater.

Wiring Inputs

There are two input categories available: Thermocouple/RTD or cur-

rent/voltage. Make sure you have the right type before wiring the
inputs. Refer to Table of Input Type Codes and set the parameter
"P-n2" accordingly.

Note: In order to minimize the risk of high frequency noise induced by

coils and windings in relays, solenoids, and transformers, use leads
which have braided sheath and ground one end of the sheath. Keep
your input leads separate from power and output leads. If you have to
bring the input signal from a long distance, a signal transmitter might be
needed to maintain an accurate reading; in this case, a unit that
accepts current/voltage input would be necessary.

Thermocouple
• Connect thermocouples directly to the input terminals whenever
possible.
20
• If using extension wires, make sure they are of the same thermocou-
ple material and grade; any dissimilar metal junctions will lead to
erroneous readings.
• Ungrounded thermocouples are recommended for optimal perfor-
mance and to prevent ground loops.
• Make sure the polarity is correct.

RTD PtIOO
• Use a 3-wire PtIOOii RTD whenever possible. All three wires must
have low lead resistance (less than ^0Q.) and no resistance differen-
tials among them.
• If using a 2-wire RTD, jumper the two B-legs with a wire of equal
resistance.
• Make sure A and B leads are connected to the right terminals.

Current/Voltage
•The controller accepts 1-5V, 0-5V, 4-20mA, and 0-20mA DC signals. If
wiring for a voltage input feed the signal directly to the input termi-
nals. For current inputs, hrst connect the 250i2 precision resistor that
comes with the unit
• Make sure the polarity is correct

Wiring Outputs

Before wiring the outputs, make sure the unit has the right kind of con-
trol output and that all the load handling devices conform to the con-
troller specifications. Note that it takes 5 seconds for the outputs to
activate after the power is turned on.
Refer to parameter "P-nl" and to the Table of Output Type Codes to
choose the preferred type of control action- reverse-acting or direct-
acting.

21
If using two outputs in a heaf cool type control, please refer to
Appendix D for more details.

Relay
• Connecting a load to full capacity of the relay will shorten the relay
life, especially if it is operated at a rapid rate. To protect the output
relay, an external relay or a contactor should be used. If a higher cur-
rent rating is required, a solid-state relay driver type output is recom-
mended.
• Connect the load between the normally opened contacts ofthe relay
This way, if power to the controller is disrupted, the output circuit
would open, preventing the load from running out of control.
• Set the proportional time cycle parameter, "TC" to 30 sees, or more.
• Use of "Z-trap" (manufacturer: Fuji Electric Co.) is recommended to
protect the relay against switching
PXZ4 PXZ9
surges and to ensure the product's long
(8-pin)
life. Connect it between the contacts of
the relay as shown in the example.

Part No.:
ENC241D-05A (power supply voltage: 100V) [ol
ENC471D-05A (power supply voltage: 200V)

SSR/SSC Driver (Pulsed DC Voltage)

• The non-isolated DC output is used to drive an external load-handling
device such as Solid-State Relay(SSR) or Solid-State Contactor(SSC).
• The total current drawn, for both single and dual outputs, should be
wh:hin the allowed value.
• Make sure the polarity is correct
• Set the proportional time cycle parameter, "TC" to 1 sec. or more.

22
4toahnADC
* The output is a non-isolated analog signal used to drive a variety of
output devices such as SCRs and valve actuators.
* The load resistance must be less than 600n.
* Make sure the polarity is correct
* The proportional time cycle parameter, "TC" is set to 0, and is not dis-
played on the programming menu.

Wiring Alarms

* Make sure the load does not exceed the rated capacity of the relay.
* Several types of alarm configurations can be programmed and does
not require a change in the wiring. Refer to parameters AL, AH, P-AH,
P-AL, P-An.
* For details on Heater Break alarm, please refer to Appendix D and the
Heater Break Alarm Setpoint parameter "Hb" in the programming
section.

FRONT PANEL OPERATION
The PXZ controller programming menu consists of two blocks—
PRIMARY (SETPOINT) MENU and SECONDARY (SYSTEM) MENU. At
power up, the controller will be in the operational mode- process vari-
able (PV), in the case of PXZ4, and both process variable and setpoint
variable (SV), in the case of PXZ-5,7,9 will be displayed. PV is the vari-
able that is being controlled, and it is not programmable. When setting
the parameters, turn off the power to the load (operating equipment) to
ensure safety. Since it takes 30 minutes for the unit to stabilize in terms
of temperature, all measurements should be carried out at least 30 min-
utes after the power is turned on. Option-related features are displayed
only when the options are provided.

AUTOTUNING
Before initiating the autotune function, first decide if you would like
to autotune at setpoint or 10% of full scale below setpoint Set the set-
point (SV), alarms (AL, AH) and the cycle time (TC). Bring your process
near setpoint before starting the autotune procedure.

Set the parameter AT to either''r(to autotune at setpoint) or "2" (to

autotune at 10% of full scale below setpoint) and press ENT key to start
auto-tuning. The point indicator at lower right will then start blinking.
When the auto-tuning is completed, the point indicator stops blinking
and the parameter AT will automatically be set to "G."

Duration ofthe autotune process varies with every application. The

auto-tuning process may take between 1 and 30 minutes to complete.
If it fails to complete, an abnormality may be suspected. In this case,
recheck the wiring, control action, and input type code. Refer to page
35 and Appendix A for additional details.

The PID parameters calculated by autotuning will be retained even if

the power is lost. However, if the power is turned off during the auto-
tuning process, you must restart autotuning. To abort the autotune
procedure, set AT to "0." Auto-tuning has to be repeated if there is a
significant change in SV, P-SL or P-SU, or in the controlled process.
Autotuning can also be performed while fuzzy control is selected.

PRIMARY MENU SEHINGS
PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
SV Main Setpoint Variable: The main setpoint variable is the
control point you wish to maintain. The main setpoint
variable is set within the input range, between the P-SL
and the P-SU settings.

>*~' I- o ' l j ProG Ramp/Soak Command: The Ramp/Soak program auto-

matically changes the setpoint value with time
according to a preset pattern. ProG switches the opera-
tion modes.
Setting: oFF: Normal operation is performed
rUn : Ramp/Soak operation is performed
hLd : Ramp/Soak operation is suspended

•'-' P Proportional Band: The proportional band is that area

around main setpoint where the control output is neither
fully on nor fully off.
Setting range: 0.0 to 999.9% of full scale
For On/Off control, set to "0"

<- I Integral Time (reset): The Integral Time is the speed at

which a corrective increase or decrease in output is
made to compensate for offset which usually accompa-
nies proportional only processes. The more Integral Time
entered, the slower the action. The less Integral Time
entered, the faster the action. Enter a value that would
eliminate offset without overcompensation, which may
result in process oscillations.
Setting range: 0 to 3200 sees
Integral action is turned off when set to "0"

29
 Derivative Time (Rate): The Derivative Time is that time
used in calculating rate of change and thermal lag in
helping to eliminate overshoot that results in response to
process upsets. This overshoot usually accompanies
proportional only and proportional-integral processes.
The derivative action dampens proportional and integral
action as it anticipates where the process should be.
The more Derivative Time entered, the more the damping
action. The less the Derivative Time entered, the less the
damping action. Enter as much Derivative Time a value
that would eliminate overshoot without over-damping the
process, that could result in process oscillations.
Setting range: 0 to 999.9 sees
Derivative action is disabled when set to "0"

ft i AL Low Alarm Setpoint The Low Alarm Setpoint is that
point of the process below which, the low alarm output
relay is energized. If the alarm type, programmed in the
secondary menu, includes an absolute value for the Low
Alarm Setpoint enter the actual value you want the
alarm to be activated at regardless of what the main set-
point is set for. If the alarm type includes a deviation
value for the Low Alarm Setpoint enter the number of
units below main setpoint in which you want the alarm to
be activated at the deviation alarm tracks main setpoint
Set within the input range.
Not indicated without the alarm option.

1*^ y< AH High Alarm Setpoint: The High Alarm Setpoint is that
point of the process above which, the high alarm output
relay is energized. If the alarm type, programmed in the
secondary menu, includes an absolute value for the High
Alarm Setpoint enter the actual value you want the
alarm to be activated at regardless of what the main set-
point is set for. If the alarm type includes a deviation
value for the High Alarm Setpoint enter the number of
units above main setpoint in which you want the alarm to
be activated at the deviation alarm tracks main setpoint
Set within the input range.
Not indicated without the alarm option.

31
TC Cycle Time (Output #1): The Cycle Time for output #1 is
that time where the output is on for a percentage of that
time and off for a percentage of that time, creating a pro-
portioning effect The Cycle Time is only used when the
PXZ is used as a P, PI, PD, or PID controller and when
. the output is time proportional as with the relay or
SSR/SSC drive outputs. The shorter the Cycle Time, the
higher the proportioning resolution is, and better is the
control, but there will be an increased strain on the out-
put device. Enter a value that is based on the limitations
of your controller's output type.
Setting range: 1 to 150 sees.
For relay output Set to 30 sees or more
For SSR/SSC drive output Set to 1 sec or more
For current output Set to 0. (normally not indicated).

HYS Hysteresis: The Hysteresis is that area around the main
setpoint where the output does not change condition.
That area or deadband is intended to eliminate relay
chatter at setpoint for On/Off control applications. The
wider the Hysteresis, the longer it takes for the controller
to change output condition. The narrower the Hysteresis,
the lesstimethe controller takes to change output con-
dition. When the Hysteresis is narrow, the On/Off control
is more accurate but the wear on the output relay is
increased. Enter a value which is small enough to meet
the control tolerance ofthe application but large enough
to eliminate relay chatter.
Setting range: 0 to 50% of full scale, set in E.U.
Hysteresis for On/Off action on dual outputs (heating and
cooling) is tixed at 0.5% of full scale.

 Heater Break Alarm Setpoint: If the heater's operating cur-
rent falls below this setpoint the heater break alarm output
relay is energized. This option is used in cases where the
PXZ is controlling a bank of heaters wired in parallel. A cur-
rent transformer around the hot lead going to the heater
bank and connected to the controller is tied with the con-
troller's output and senses the current used by the heater
bank. If one or more ofthe zones burnout resulting in cold
spots, the current used by the defective heater bank is
reduced. By determining what the optimal current and the
optimal current minus one zone for the heater bank is, the
Heater Break Alarm setpoint can be calculated and
entered.
Setting Range: 0 to 50 amps.
Not indicated without the Heater Break Alarm output
option.
Not available on PXZ4, or with 4-20 mA DC outputs.
Detection is made only on a single-phase heater. This
function cannot be used when controlling a heater with
SCR phase-angle control.

 0-1 AT Autotuning: Autotuning is the automatic calculation and
entering ofthe control parameters (P, I and D) into memo-
ry. The PXZ will autotune both reverse and direct acting
control applications. Autotuning will also automatically
set anti-reset wind-up (Ar). There are two types of
Autotuning that can be performed by the controller,
Autotuning at main setpoint or Autotuning at 10% of full
scale below main setpoint The latter may yield slightly
different values, not as precise, but the process over-
shoot encountered during the autotuning procedure
would not be as much. Enter the value for the type of
autotuning you would like to run on your particular appli-
cation based on overshoot tolerances and the precision
ofthe PID parameters needed. For more information on
principles of Autotuning, refer to Appendix A. See also
page 28.

that time where the output is on for a percentage of that
time and off for a percentage of that time, creating a
proportioning effect Output #2 is the cooling side of a
heat/cool PXZ controller. A shorter cycle time provides
higher proportioning resolution and better control but
causes increased strain on the output device. Enter a
value that is based on the limitations of your controller's
output type.
Setting Range: 1 to 150 sees.

i o o i- CooL Proportional Band Coefficient for Cooling: The

Proportional Band Coefficient for Cooling is a multiplier
for the proportional band on the cooling side of a
heat/cool PXZ controller. It varies the width ofthe pro-
portional band on the cooling side. A large value would
establish a larger proportional band for more powerful
cooling loads. A small value would establish a smaller
proportional band for less powerful cooling loads. Enter
a value based on the power of your cooling load.

Setting Range: 0.0 to 100.0

centage ofthe heating side ofthe proportional band
where the heating (output #1) and the cooling (output #2)
outputs are separated by a Deadband or where they
Overfap on a heat/cool PXZ controller. A value greater
than zero establishes a Deadband or area where neither
the heating nor cooling outputs are energized for more
powerful heating and cooling loads. A value less than
zero establishes an Overlap or area where both the heat-
ing and cooling outputs are energized at the same time
for less powerful heating and cooling loads. Enter a value
based on the power of your heating and cooling loads as
well as the application's efficiency in maintaining tight
heat/cool control.
Setting range: -50.0to 50.0% ofthe heating proportional
band.

b t-i {. bAL Balance: Balance is used to pre-position the proportional

band with respect to setpoint With Balance (MV Offset)
set at 50% the proportional band will be centered around
setpoint To move the band left or right decrease or

Setting range: 0-100%

ft,- Ar Anti-Reset Wind-up: Anti-Reset is used to limit the range

where integration occurs. This helps in stabilizing a sys-
tem. With Anti-Reset at 100%, integration will occur
throughout the proportional band. With Anti-Reset set to
90%, integration will occur at 90% of the band above the
setpoint and 90% ofthe band below the setpoint
Autotuning automatically sets Ar.

P - •-• i P-n1 Control Action & Sensor Bum-out Protection: The
Control Action is the direction of the output relative to
the process variable. The PXZ can be programmed as
either a reverse or a direct-acting controller. As a
reverse-acting controller, the PXZ's output decreases as
the process variable increases. A heating application
would require reverse acting control. As a direct acting
controller, the PXZ's output increases as the process
variable increases. A cooling application would require
direct-acting control. Enter the code from the Table of
Output Type Codes which establishes the PXZ as either
a reverse or a direct-acting controller.

The Sensor Burn-out Protection is the intended direc-

tion of the output in the event of a thermocouple or RTD
sensor break, or a break in the analog input The PXZ
can be programmed with either upper-limit or lower-limit
burn-out direction. With Upper-limit Burn-out a 100%
output will be delivered in the event of a sensor burn-
out With Lower-limit Burn-out 0% output will be deliv-
ered in the event of a sensor burn-out Enter the appro-
priate code from the Table of Output Type Codes.

P-n2 Input type: The Input Type is the type of sensor to be used
with the PXZ controller in sensing the process variable.
The Input Type must be correctly programmed into the
controller in order for the controller to perform with the
selected sensor type. Depending on the type of sensor to
be used, the PXZ comes in two models. One model
accepts J, K, R, B, S, T, E, N thermocouples and RTDs
(PtIOO) and the other model accepts 1-5/0-5V DC and 4-
20/0-20mA DC signals.
The current/voltage model comes with a 250n precision
resistor. Wired directiy to the controller, it would convert
a current signal into a voltage signal. There is no need to
use the resistor if a voltage signal is applied directly.
After the appropriate physical changes have been made,
the controller still needs the correct code for the input
type to be used. Enter the appropriate code.

P-dF Input Filter Constant The Input Filter is used to tilter out
the quick changes that occur to the process variable in a
dynamic or quick responding application that causes
erratic control. By slowing down the response time, the
PXZ controller averages out the peaks and valleys of a
dynamic system which, in turn, stabilizes the control. The
digital filter also aids the PXZ in controlling processes
where the electrical noise is affecting the input signal.
The larger the value entered, the slower the controller
reacts to process variable changes. The smaller the value
entered, the quicker the controller reacts to process vari-
able changes. Enter as small a value as possible at which
the PXZ maintains accurate and stable control.

P-SL Lower Limit of Input Range:
P-SU Upper Limit of Input Range: The Lower Limit and the
Upper Limit of Input Range establish the desired low
and high limit for the type of input used. The Lower limit
must be greater than or equal to the input type's lower
limit while the Upper Limit must be less than or equal to
the input type's upper limit Setpoint settings are
restricted to values between P-SL and P-SU. Parameter
values that are calculated as a percentage of full scale
are affected by these settings. An underscale or an
overscale error is indicated if the process value goes
below or above the range by 5% of full scale. The pri-
mary purpose of these parameters when used with ther-
mocouple or RTD inputs is to limit setpoint settings.
When an analog input is used, the signal is scaled for
the engineering unit range selected. For example, when
a 4-20 mA input is used, the value of P-SL corresponds
to 4mA and the value of P-SU corresponds to 20 mA.
The engineering unit range could be %, PSI, pH, or any
range which can be scaled between -1999 and 9999
units.

the optional alarm output relays. The PXZ5,7, and 9
comes with two relays while the PXZ4 comes with
one. They can be programmed for absolute, deviation,
combination, or zone alarm configuration. The high
and low alarm setpoints are set with primary menu
parameters AH and AL The absolute alarm configura-
tions are independent of main setpoint The alarm out-
put relays are energized when the process variable
exceeds the alarm setpoint an absolute value. The
deviation alarm configuration is main setpoint track-
ing. The alarm output relays are energized when the
process variable exceeds the main setpoint by a devi-
ation value set by AL or AH. The combination alarm
configurations are a mixture of both the deviation and
absolute value settings for the high and low alarms.
With zone alarm configurations the alarm output is
energized between the range set by AL and AH.
One of the alarm types is Alarm with Hold. In this case
the alarm is not turned on the first time the measured
value is in the alarm band. Instead it turns on only
when the measured value goes out of the band and
enters it again. This type is useful when using devia-
tion alarm with step type input
Enter the code for P-AH and P-AL from the Table of
Alarm Action Type Codes.

Note 1: A change of alarm action type can cause the

alarm set value to change, but this is not a malfunction.

Position is the resolution at which the PXZ controller dis-
plays the process variable and other parameter values.
The PXZ can indicate integers, tenths or hundredths of a
unit The Decimal Point Position does not increase the
accuracy of the controller, it only increases the resolu-
tion. For a thermocouple, integers are usually sufficient
due to the accuracy rating and the programmed input
range. For a RTD (PtIOO), integers or tenths of a degree
may be entered, because of the increased accuracy of
these sensors, depending on the programmed input
range. For a 1-5/0-5V DC or 4-20/0-20mA DC signal, inte-

be changed. This parameter can be used to correct for
differences in sensors, sensor placement and standard-
ization problems. Enter a value which is the difference
between the measured process value and the actual
process value ofthe system.
Setting range: -10-10% of full scale, set in Eng. units

Setpoint Variable Offset The Setpoint Variable Offset is

that amount of offset which shifts the measured setpoint
variable in a positive or negative direction. The mea-
sured setpoint variable is changed but the indicated
setpoint variable remains unchanged. Be careful when
using this variable because what you see as the set-
point variable may be very different from the actual
setpoint variable.

P-F C/F Selection: The C/F Selection is used to read temper-
ature in either Celsius or Fahrenheit units. If using the
controller to control a process other than temperature
using the current/voltage input model, the C/F Selection
is not important because the scaling is done using the
parameters for lower limit and upper limit of input range,
P-SL and P-SU, and the indication is in engineering
units.

FUZY Fuzzy Logic Control: Employing Fuzzy Logic Control in

addition to PID control eliminates system overshoot and
effectively suppresses fiuctuation ofthe process vari-
able due to external disturbances. This function may be
enabled even during auto-tuning. Note that fuzzy control
is not effective in units with dual outputs, due to the
complexity ofthe process. Fuzzy control is also inhibited
while the Ramp/Soak function is in operation.

i^cfu'C ADJO Zero/Span Calibration: This function is used for
fto'u'S ADJS zero/span calibration ofthe input Calibration is effected
by first applying the appropriate signal for zero and span
points of the input range being used and then by cor-
recting the errors. This is an independent function and
the instrument can easily be reset to conditions prior to
delivery.
Example:
Input range 0-400°C
Indication at 0°C:-1°C
Indication at 400°C: 402°C
Change ADJO to 1 and ADJS to -2 to correct the error.
The instrument can be set back to factory values by set-
ting ADJO and ADJS to 0.

o' S P '< dSPI Parameter Mask function: This function is used to indi-
te to vidually mask the display of parameters that are not
c / S P ^ dSP7 usedforyourapplication, or parameters that are not to
be accessed by the operator. To mask or unmask a
parameter appropriate dSP codes should be selected
from the Quick Reference guide.

Example /.To mask parameter P

1) Determine the dSP value for P from the Quick
Reference guide. P = dSP1-2
2) Add 2 to the existing dSPI value.

Example 2: Jo display/unmask the parameter P-F

1) Determine the dSP value for P-F from the Quick
Reference guide. P-F = dSP6-64
2) Subtract 64 from the existing dSP6 value.

APPENDIX A
Autotuning

By autotuning, the controller selects what it calculates to be the optimal

PID control parameters for a particular process and then stores them in
EEPROM memory for future use. The PID parameters are stored so that
when the controller is powered up after being shut down, the controller
does not need to be autotuned again. The PXZ uses the same autotuned
PID parameters until the Autotune function is again initiated. The
Autotune parameters are only good for the process the Autotune func-
tion was used on. If the setpoint is significantiy changed, the input sen-
sor is changed, the load or output device is changed or relocated, or any
other disturbances occur which might change the dynamics of the sys-
tem, the Autotune function should be performed again. The autotuned
control parameters are not always perfect for every application but
almost always give the operator a good starting point from which further
refinement ofthe control parameters can be performed manually

The PXZ's autotuning algorithm is particularly suited for temperature

control applications and may not always autotune effectively for other
processes. Here are cases where the Autotune function does not per-
form well or does not perform at all:

1. The system is affected by process disturbances external to the con-

trol loop. Adjacent heater zones, changing material levels, exothermic
reactions are examples of process disturbances which are external
to the control loop. The PXZ would never be able to autotune such an
unstable process.
2. The system is very dynamic. The process variable changes very
quickly. Certain pressure and flow applications would be character-
55
 ized as very dynamic. Because of how the Autotune function is per-
formed, a very dynamic system would create very large overshoots
which could damage the process.
3. The system is very insulated and cannot cool down in atimelyman-
ner. With such heating systems the autotuning function would take a
very longtimeto complete with questionable results.

During autotuning, the PXZ sends test signals to the process. The test
signals are 100% output and 0% output at the Autotune point The
Autotune point can either be at setpoint or 10% of full scale below set-
point The controller performs as an On/Off controller. See diagram
below.

56
The PXZ then reads the reaction of these test signals on the process.
Keep in mind that every process is different and therefore every reac-
tion to the test signals is different This is why PID parameters are not
the same for different processes. The amplitude (L) or lag time which is
the overshoot and undershoot ofthe system when autotuning and the
time constant (T) which is the time the process takes to go through one
On/Off cycle is measured. See diagram below.

The measurements are then used with the Autotune algorithm for cal-
culation of the proper PID parameters for the system. See the PXZ
Autotune algorithm below, where K is the proportionality constant and S
is the Laplace operator.

APPENDIX B
Manual Tuning

Tune the PXZ controller if any ofthe following occurs:

• PXZ is installed in a new system

• PXZ is used as a replacement in an existing system
• The input sensor is relocated or changed
• The output device is relocated or changed
• The setpoint is significantiy changed
• Any other condition that will alter the dynamics of the system

Proportional Band
The proportional band is a band around the setpoint of the PXZ where
the output is between 0% and 100%. The percentage of output is pro-
portional to the amount of error between the setpoint variable (SV) and
the process variable (PV). Outside ofthe proportional band the output is
either 0% or 100%
The proportional band on the PXZ is equidistant from the main setpoint
as illustrated below.

Main Setpoint Main Setpoint

Note: PB = Proportional Band

58
An example of proportioning would be a vehicle approaching a stop sign
at an intersection. If the driver were traveling at 50mph and only applied
his brakes once at the intersection, his car would skid through the inter-
section before coming to a full stop. This illustrates how On/Off control
acts. If, however, the driver started slowing down some distance before
the stop sign and continued slowing down at some rate, he could con-
ceivably come to a full stop at the stop sign. This illustrates how propor-
tional control acts. The distance where the speed ofthe car goes from 50
to 0 MPH illustrates the proportional band. As you can see, as the car
travels closer to the stop sign, the speed is reduced accordingly. In other
words, as the error or distance between the car and the stop sign
becomes smaller, the output or speed ofthe car is proportionally dimin-
ished. Figuring out when the vehicle should start slowing down depends
on many variables such as speed, weight tire tread, and braking power
ofthe car, road conditions, and weather much like figuring out the pro-
portional band of a control process with its many variables.

The width ofthe proportional band depends on the dynamics ofthe sys-
tem. The first question to ask is, how strong must my output be to elimi-
nate the error between the setpoint variable and process variable? The
larger the proportional band (low gain), the less reactive the process. A
proportional band too large, however, can lead to process wandering or
sluggishness. The smaller the proportional band (high gain), the more

reactive the output becomes. A proportional band too small, however,
can lead to over-responsiveness leading to process oscillation.

A proportional band which is correct in width approaches main setpoint

as fast as possible while minimizing overshoot If a faster approach to
setpoint is desired and process overshoot is not a problem, a smaller or
narrower proportional band may be used. This would establish an over-
damped system or one where the output would change greatly, propor-
tional to the error. If process overshoot cannot be tolerated and the
approach to setpoint does not have to be quick, a larger or wider pro-
portional band may be used. This would establish an under-damped
system or one where the output would change little, proportional to the
error.

Integral Time
With the proportional band alone, the process tends to reach equilibri-
um at some point away from the main setpoint This offset is due to the
difference between the output needed to maintain setpoint and the out-
put of the proportional band at setpoint In the case of the PXZ con-
troller where the proportional band is equidistant from the main set-
point the output is around 50%. If anything more or less than 50% out-
put is required to maintain setpoint an offset error will occur. Integral
action eliminates this offset See the diagrams below.

Integral action eliminates offset by adding to or subtracting from the

output of the proportional action alone. This increase or decrease in
output corrects for offset error within the proportional band in estab-
lishing steady-state performance at setpoint It is not intended to cor-
rect for process disturbances. See the following diagram.

61
Integral Time is the speed at which the controller corrects for offset A
short integral time means the controller corrects for offset quickly If the
integral time is too short, the controller would react before the effects
of previous output shifts - due to lead or lag time - could be sensed,
causing oscillation. A long Integral time means the control corrects for
offset over a long time. If the integral time is too long, the offset will
remain for some time causing slow responding or sluggish control. See
the diagram below.

Derivative Time
In the case of a process upset proportional only or proportional-inte-
gral action cannot react fast enough in returning a process back to set-
point without overshoot The derivative action corrects for disturbances
providing sudden shifts in output which oppose the divergence ofthe
process from setpoint See the diagram below.
The derivative action changes the rate of reset or integration propor-
tional to the rate of change and lag time of the system. By calculating
the rate of change ofthe process and multiplying it by the lag time
which is the time it takes the controller to sense an output change, the
controller can anticipate where the process should be and change the
output accordingly. This anticipatory action speeds up and slows down
the effect of proportional and proportional-integral actions to return a
process to setpoint as quickly as possible with minimum overshoot See
the diagram below.

Rate of Change X Lag T1me= / /

Anticipated Process Variable A /

Derivative time is the amount of anticipatory action needed to return a

process back to setpoint A short derivative time means little derivative
action. If the derivative time is too short, the controller would not react
quickly to process disturbances. A long derivative time means more
derivative action. If the derivative time is too large, the controller would
react too dramatically to process disturbances creating rapid process
oiscillation. A process which is very dynamic such as pressure and fiow
applications is more efficientiy controlled if the derivative action is
turned off because of the oscillation problem that would result

63
Tuning
Tuning the PXZ, as with any PID loop, requires tuning each parameter
separately and in sequence. To achieve good PID control manually, you
can use the trial and error method explained below.

Tune the Proportional Band

Set Integral Time = 0 (off)
Set Derivative Time = 0 (off)
Start with a large Proportional Band value which gives very sluggish
control with noticeable offset and tighten by decreasing the value in
halt Analyze the process variable. If the control is still sluggish, tighten
by decreasing the value in half again. Continue with the same proce-
dure until the process starts to oscillate at a constant rate. Widen the
Proportional Band by 50%, or multiply the setting 1.5 times. From a cold
start, test and verify that the Proportional Band allows maximum rise to
setpoint while maintaining minimum overshoot and offset If not com-
pletely satisfied, fine-tune the value, up or down, as needed and test
until correct The Proportional Band is now tuned.

Add Integral Time

Start with a large Integral Time value which gives very sluggish
response to process offset and tighten by decreasing the value in half.
Analyze the process variable. If the response to process offset is still
sluggish, tighten by decreasing the value in half again. Continue with
the same procedure until the process starts to oscillate at a constant
rate. Increase the Integral Time value by 50%, or multiply the setting 1.5
times. From a cold start test and verify that the Integral Time allows
maximum elimination of offset with minimum overshoot If not complete-
ly satisfied, fine-tune the value, up or down, as needed and test until
correct The Integral Time is now tuned.

64
Add Derivative Time
Do not add Derivative Time if the system is too dynamic. Start with a
small Derivative Time value which gives sluggish response to process
upsets and double the value. Analyze the process variable. If the
response to process upsets is still sluggish, double the value again.
Continue with the same procedure until the process starts to oscillate
at a quick constant rate. Decrease the Derivative Time value by 25%.
From a cold start, test and verify that the Derivative Time value allows
maximum response to process disturbances with minimum overshoot If
not completely satisfied,fine-tunethe value, up or down, as needed and
test until correct Note that the Derivative Time value is usually some-
where around 25% ofthe Integral Time value.

Another tuning method is the closed-loop cycling orZeigler-Nichols

method. According to J.G. Zeigler and N.B. Nichols, optimal tuning is
achieved when the controller responds to a difference between set-
point and the process variable with a 1/4 wave decay ratio. That is to
say that the amplitude of each successive overshoot is reduced by 3/4
until stabilizing at setpoint The procedure is explained below.
1. Integral Tlme=0
Derivative Tlme=0
2. Decrease the Proportional Band to the point where a constant rate
of oscillation is obtained. This is the response frequency of the
system. The frequency is different for each process.

3. Measure the Time Constant which is thetimeto complete one cycle

ofthe response frequency. The Time Constant will be defined as "T"
when calculating Integral and Derivative Times.

4. Widen the Proportional Band until only slightiy unstable. This is the
Proportional Band's Ultimate Sensitivity. The Proportional Band's
Ultimate Sensitivity width will be defined as "P" when calculating
the actual Proportional Band.

APPENDIX C
Heater Break Option

The Heater Break Option is used to detect heater break conditions and
to energize an alarm relay when such conditions exist In most cases,
the option is used to detect the failure of one or more zones in a multi-
zoned heater where all individual resistive heater zones are wired in
parallel. Failed heater zones would create cold spots in a system which
could hamper the process and even ruin the product If cold spots in a
system are a problem, the Heater Break Option is an effective way of
alerting the operator of a heater break condition, a cause of cold spots.

The PXZ controller is able to detect a heater problem by analyzing the

current used by the heater. The actual sensing is done by a current
sensing transformer, sold separately, which is placed around the hot
lead going to the heater and connected to the controller. The signal
sent by the current sensing transformer is timed with the output of the
PXZ. When the output is energized the signal sent from the current
sensing transformer is analyzed. When the output is de-energized the
signal sent from the current sensing transformer is not analyzed. This
eliminates the alarm condition turning on and off due to the output con-
dition of the controller. If the signal sent when the output is energized
indicates that the current level is below what the Heater Break alarm is
set for, the alarm is energized. The alarm is non-latching.

67
Notes:

1. The Heater Break Option is available on the PXZ-5,7, and 9 controllers

only

2. The Heater Break Option cannot be used on the PXZ controller with a
4-20mA DC output The current sensing transformer would pick up cur-
rent changes due to fluctuating power output between 0% and 100%,
which would result in a heater break alarm condition even though no
such condition existed.

3. The Cycle Time must be set at 6 sees, or higher in order for the con-
troller to correctly analyze the signal sent by the current sensing
transformer.

4. The power supply used should be the same for the PXZ and heater to
eliminate current fluctuations due to power differences between dif-
ferent power supplies.

Wiring and Setting:

1. Choose the correct current sensing transformer based on the maxi-

mum current usage ofthe heater.
0-30 Amps (part #CTL-6-SF)
20 - 50 Amps (part # CTL-12-S36-8F)

2. Thread the hot lead going to the V^f^

rent sensing transformer. Connect
the wires of the current sensing transformer to the current sensing

68
3. Set Heater Break alarm setpoint parameter "Hb".
With the current sensing transformer connected and the heater in
operation, output energized, change the Heater Break Alarm setting
from the maximum current setting for the particular current sensing
transformer being used to a lower value. Allow 3 sees, or more
between setting changes. Continue lowering the setting until the
relay is energized and the "HB" status indicator is lit This is the max-
imum current usage ofthe heater. Using the same procedure, find the
maximum current usage of the heater minus one zone. Set the set-
point in between the Power Supply

tor knows if one or

APPENDIX D
Heat/Cool Option

With the Heat/Cool Option, the PXZ can control a temperature applica-
tion with one input at one main setpoint using two outputs, a heating
output and a cooling output By using a heating and cooling output a
process is able to quickly bring the temperature to setpoint in both
directions and to limit the amount of overshoot The larger the deviation
from setpoint the more output applied to the system on both the heat-
ing and cooling sides. Heat/Cool control is a very effective way of con-
trolling exothermic processes, processes that generate their own heat
or processes where ambient temperature is not adequate or fast
enough in returning a process back to setpoint

The two outputs on the PXZ are independent and sent to two different
output devices. The PXZ can be equipped with two of the same or two
different output types. Output #2 can be relay, SSR/SSC driver, or 4-
20mA DC, regardless of what Output #1 is. Both output types must be
specified when ordering.

The PXZ controls the cooling side with three additional parameters,
TC2, COOL, and db as explained in the programming section.

"ii.!? TC2 Cycle Time (Output #2): Because Output #2 is not necessar-
ily the same as Output #1, the cycle time may be different

Co o i CooL Proportional Band Coefficient for Cooling: Because the

cooling power may not necessarily be the same as the
heating power, the cooling proportional band may need to
be different from that of the heating proportional band.

70
 Deadband/Overlap: Deadband is that area where neither out-
puts are energized. Overlap is that area when both outputs
are energized. This function lets you decide where you want
the heating action to stop and the cooling action to begin.

Notes:

The Heal/Cool Option is available on the PXZ-5,7, and 9 controllers

only. Output #2 type can be the same or different than Output #1 type
(Relay, SSR/SSC driver, or 4-20mA DC)

Integral and Derivative Times are the same for both the heating and
cooling sides of a process with PID control because the response fre-
quency or time constant of the system does not change at main set-
point when cooling is added.

The Proportional Band for heating and cooling are almost always dif-
ferent Rarely does the same amount of cooling output remove the
same percentage of process error as the heating output does. The
Cooling Proportional Band must be manually and separately tuned.

If the heating side is set for On/Off control, the cooling side will be set
for On/Off control also. Regardless of what the COOL parameter
is set for, if the Proportional Band is set to zero, the Heating
Proportional Band and the Cooling Proportional Band will always be
zero.

If the cycle times of one or both outputs are long and the process
dynamic, there is a good chance that both outputs will be cycling on
and off at the same time around main setpoint This is evident if one
or both outputs are relays.

71
6. Autotune is not effective on the cooling side of Heat/Cool control.
Autotune the controller for heat only and then manually tune the
cooling parameters.

Wiring and Setting

1. Make sure that your PXZ has the correct output type installed for
Output #2. Verify that TC2, COOL, and db parameters are indicated
in the primary (setpoint) menu.

2. Wire your cooling load to the Output #2 terminals located on the

back of your PXZ controller.

3. In the secondary (system) menu, program the correct code for

Heat/Cool action. See page 43 for Table of Output Type Codes.

4. In the primary (setpoint) menu, program TC2, the cycle time for
Output #2. The table below is a general guide to TC2 settings.

Outpiit#2Type . ^ . i ' Setting(Secs)

Relay 30
SSR Driver (pulsed DC) 2

Autotune or manually tune the PID parameters of your PXZ

controller. Autotune will work for the heating PID parameters
but not on the cooling parameters. You must manually tune the
cooling parameters.

72
 Heating.Side ' Cooling Side
Heating Proportional Band Cooling Proportional Band
[P/2] [P/2 COOL]
I I (same as for heating)
D D (same as for heating)

6. With the heat side tuned, manually set the COOL parameter or
Proportional Band Coefficient for Cooling. If the cooling output is
less powerful than the heating output the Cooling Proportional
Band must be narrower than the Heating Proportional Band; the
COOL parameter would be less than " 1 " . If the cooling output is
more powerful than the heating output the Cooling Proportional
Band must be wider than the Heating Proportional Band; the COOL
parameter would be more than " 1 " . See the programming section
for more details.

7. Finally, you can add a Deadband/Overfap. The programmed

Deadband/Overfap parameter can be within -50% to -f50% of the
Heating Proportional band. To establish a Deadband, parameter
"db" is set somewhere between 0% and 50% ofthe Heating
Proportional band. To establish an Overlap, "db" is set somewhere
between -50% and 0% ofthe Heating Proportional Band.

8. Manually fine-tune the parameters COOL and db until just the right
amount of cooling is achieved. Refer to the programming section
for more details on these parameters.
