The self-tuning runs when all of the following conditions are met.
• The SV that appears at power-on is not the same one when the , , , and were set previously. (i.e. the
, , , and set by the self-tuning, auto-tuning, manual setting, and writing by communications tools at
previous time)
• The (SV-PV) at power-on is larger than (the value of × input range) or (the set value of ).
w When the SV is changed:
The self-tuning runs when all the conditions below are met.
• The changed SV is larger than the SV that was set when the , , , and were selected previously.
• The changed amount of the SV is larger than 0.
• The changed amount of the SV is larger than (the set value of × input range) or (the set value of ).
e When output becomes unstable:
The self-tuning runs when control becomes unstable and the hunting of the operating output (MV) occurs. (The self-
tuning runs only once as long as the SV is not changed.)
r When the control standby mode is cancelled:
The self-tuning runs by the same reason as “q At power-on” are met.
* Only when the PXR is set to standby mode at power-on.

q During control standby mode
w During two-position control (Parameter of = 0)
e During auto-tuning operation
r During ramp-soak operation
t Error display ( or is displayed.)
y During dual output (The set value of the parameter of is larger than 4.)

5 Conditions under which the self-tuning is suspended:

q At the condition described in 4 shown above
w When the SV is changed during self-tuning operation
e When the self-tuning operation can not be completed within approx. 9 hours
6 Caution
q Once the PID constant is set, the self-tuning does not operate at next power-on as long as the SV is not
changed.
w For an accurate tuning, be sure to power on the device to be controlled before or at the same time as the
PXR is powered on. If the PXR has to be powered on first for reasons of the system configuration, perform
the auto-tuning with the PID or FUZZY control.
e If the device to be controlled is powered on under temperature change (especially when it rises), accurate
tunings can not be performed. Be sure to power on the PYX when the temperature of device to be controlled
is stabilized.
r The self-tuning does not run for cooling system control under Direct Action output (Parameter = 2 or 3).

mula (refer also to the setting example shown below).
Set value (%) = (A ÷ B) × 100 [%] [Note]
A = Temperature to be set – Set value of parameter “P-SL” • Be sure to always set smaller than .
B = Set value of parameter “P-SU” – Set value of “P-SL”
[Setting example] At K thermocouple input of 0 to 400˚C, make the setting so that the PV (value of
retransmission output type) becomes 0% at 100˚C, and 100% at 300˚C.
Since the measurement range is 0 to 400˚C, P – SL = 0 (lower limit value of measurement range), and P – SU = 400 (upper
limit value of measurement range). So, from the formula shown above,
A = (100˚C – 0) or (300˚C – 0), B = 400 – 0 = 400
1) Setting Ao-L : What position is 100˚C in the temperature range from 0 to 400˚C ? = 25% (=(100 – 0) ÷ 400 × 100 [%]) → Ao-L = 25.0 (%)
2) Setting Ao-H : What position is 300˚C in the temperature range from 0 to 400˚C ? = 75% (=(300 – 0) ÷ 400 × 100 [%]) → Ao-H = 75.0 (%)

Safety Precaution
● Before using the PXR, read the “Instruction Manual” or consult with your local distributor or Fuji Electric for safety
purpose.
● The uses and places for some of equipment described in this manual are limited. Some devices need regular inspec-
tions. Consult with your local distributor or Fuji Electric.
● Only electricians should connect this equipment.
● The contents of this manual have been prepared carefully. However, it should be noted that Fuji Electric is not respon-
sible for any loss, including consequential damage from errors in writing or missing information.
Before operating the PXR, carefully read the safety precaution in the “Instruction Manual”.
Over-temperature Protection
Any control system design should take into account that any part of the system has the potential to fail.
For temperature control systems, continued heating should be considered the most dangerous condition, and the machine
should be designed to automatically stop heating if unregulated due to the failure of the control unit or for any other reason.
The following are the most likely causes of unwanted continued heating:
1) Controller failure with heating output constantly on

2) Disengagement of the temperature sensor from the system
3) A short circuit in the thermocouple wiring
4) A valve or switch contact point outside the system is locked to keep the heat switched on.
In any application where physical injury or destruction of equipment might occur, we recommend the installation of inde-
pendent safety equipment, with a separate temperature sensor, to disable the heating circuit in case of overheating.
The controller alarm signal is not designed to function as a protective measure in case of controller failure.
