Notice
When setting the specifications and functions of this controller, connect terminals 1 and 2 for power
source first, then set them referring to Chapter “5. Setup” before performing “3. Mounting to control panel”
and “4. Wiring connection”.

3. Mounting to control panel

3.1 Site selection
This instrument is intended to be used under the following environmental conditions
(IEC61010-1): Overvoltage category , Pollution degree 2
Ensure the mounting location corresponds to the following conditions:
• A minimum of dust, and an absence of corrosive gases
• No flammable, explosive gases
• Few mechanical vibrations or shocks
• No exposure to direct sunlight, an ambient temperature of 0 to 50 (32 to 122 )
that does not change rapidly
• An ambient non-condensing humidity of 35 to 85%RH
• No large capacity electromagnetic switches or cables through which large current is flowing
• No water, oil or chemicals or where the vapors of these substances can come into direct
contact with the controller

3.5 Mounting
Mount the controller vertically to ensure it adheres to the Dust-proof/Drip-proof specification (IP66).
Mountable panel thickness: Within 1 to 15mm
Insert the controller from the front side of the panel.
Attach the mounting brackets by the holes at the top and bottom of the case and secure the controller
in place with the screws.

(Fig.3.5-1)

Warning
As the case is made of resin, do not use excessive force while screwing in the
mounting bracket, or the case or screw type mounting bracket could be damaged.
The torque is approximately 0.12N•m.

4. Wiring connection
Warning
Turn the power supply to the instrument off before wiring or checking.
Working or touching the terminal with the power switched on may result in severe injury
or death due to Electric Shock.

(Fig. 4-1)

Notice
• The terminal block of the JCS-33A is designed to be wired from the left side.
The lead wire must be inserted from the left side of the terminal, and fastened by the
terminal screw.
• Dotted lines show options.
• Use a thermocouple and compensating lead wire that correspond to the sensor input
specification of this controller.
• Use the 3-wire RTD which corresponds to the input specification of this controller.
• This controller does not have built-in power switch, circuit breaker or fuse. Therefore, it is
necessary to install them in the circuit near the external controller.
(Recommended fuse: Time-lag fuse, rated voltage 250V AC, rated current 2A)
• When using a 24V AC/DC for the power source, do not confuse the polarity when it is
DC.
• When using a relay contact output type, externally use a relay according to the capacity of
the load to protect the built-in relay contact.
• When wiring, keep input wires (thermocouple, RTD, etc.) away from AC sources or load
wires to avoid external interference.
• Do not apply a commercial power source to the sensor connected to the input terminal nor
allow the power source to come into contact with the sensor.

5. Setup
Wire the power terminals only. After the power is turned on, the sensor input characters and temperature
unit are indicated on the PV display and the input range high limit value is indicated on the SV display for
approximately 3 seconds. (Table 5-1)
(If any other value is set during the scaling high limit setting, the set value is indicated on the SV display)
During this time, all outputs and the LED indicators are in OFF status.
Control will then start and the input value will be indicated on the PV display and main setting value (SV)
will be indicated on the SV display. (While control output OFF function is working, is indicated on
the PV display.)

control is desired, the sensor measuring temperature may deviate from the temperature in the
controlled location. When controlling with plural controllers, sometimes the temperatures measured
(input value) do not concur with the same setting value due to difference in sensor accuracy or
dispersion of load capacities. In such a case, the control can be set at the desired temperature by
adjusting the input value of sensors.

Name, Functions
Auto/Manual control function
• If Auto/Manual control function is selected in the OUT/OFF key function selection, Automatic or
Manual control function can be switched by pressing the key in the PV/SV display mode.
If control action is switched from automatic to manual or vice versa, balanceless-bumpless
function works to prevent sudden change of manipulated variable.
When automatic control is switched to manual control, the 1st dot from the right on the SV display
flashes, and the output manipulated variable (MV) can be increased or decreased by pressing
or key to perform the control.
By pressing the key again, the mode reverts to the PV/SV display mode (automatic control).
(Whenever the power to the controller is turned on, automatic control starts.)
5.7 Control output OFF function
Character Name, Functions
Control output OFF function
• A function to pause the control action or turn the control output of the unused
instrument of the plural units OFF even if the power to the instrument is supplied.
[ ] is indicated on the PV display while the function is working.
• Once the control output OFF function is enabled, the function cannot be released
even if the power to the instrument is turned OFF and ON again.
To cancel the function, press the key again for approx. 1 second.
5.8 Output manipulated variable (MV) indication
Name, functions
Output manipulated variable indication
• In the PV/SV display mode, press the key for approx. 3 seconds.
Keep pressing the key until the output manipulated variable appears, though the main
setting mode appears temporarily during the process.
(The SV display indicates output manipulated variable and the decimal point flashes at a cycle of
every 0.5 second). If the key is pressed again, the mode reverts to the PV/SV display.

6. Running
After the controller has been mounted to the control panel and wiring is completed, it can be started
in the following manner.
(1) Switch power supply to the JCS-33A ON.
Switch power supply to the JCS-33A ON.
• For approx. 3s after the power is switched ON, the sensor input character and the temperature unit
are indicated on the PV display and input range high limit value is indicated on the SV display. See
(Table 5-1). (If any other value has been set in the scaling high limit setting, the set value is indicated on
the SV display.) During this time, all outputs and LED indicators are in OFF status.
• After that, control starts indicating input value on the PV display, and main setting value on the SV display.
• While the Control output OFF function is working, is indicated on the PV display.
(2) Input each setting value. Input each setting value, referring to “5. Setup”.
(3) Turn the load circuit power ON.
Starts the control action so as to keep the controlled object at the main setting value.

8. PID auto-tuning of this controller

In order to set each value of P, I, D and ARW automatically, the auto-tuning process should be made to
fluctuate to obtain an optimal value. One of 3 types of fluctuation below is automatically selected.
(1) In the case of a large difference between the setting value and processing temperature
as the temperature is rising
When AT bias is set to 20 , the AT process will fluctuate at the temperature 20 lower than the setting
value.

output type, OUT1 low limit value, OUT2 low limit value) and PV display flashes “ ”.
[Self-diagnosis]
The CPU is monitored by a watchdog timer, and when any abnormal status is found on the
CPU, the controller is switched to warm-up status.

around room temperature is indicated, the instrument is likely to
be operating normally, however, the sensor may be burnt out.
