• Use the solderless terminal with an insulation sleeve in which the M3 screw fits when wiring the
instrument.
• The terminal block of this instrument is designed to be wired from the left side. The lead wire must be
inserted from the left side of the terminal, and fastened with the terminal screw.
• Tighten the terminal screw using the specified torque. If excessive force is applied to the screw when
tightening, the terminal screw or case may be damaged.
• Do not pull or bend the lead wire on the terminal side when wiring or after wiring, as it could cause
malfunction.
• This instrument does not have a built-in power switch, circuit breaker and fuse. It is necessary to install
a power switch, circuit breaker and fuse near the controller.
(Recommended fuse: Time-lag fuse, rated voltage 250 V AC, rated current 2 A)
• For the grounding wire, use a thick wire (1.25 - 2.0 mm2).
• For a 24 V AC/DC power source, do not confuse polarity when using direct current (DC).
• Do not apply a commercial power source to the sensor which is connected to the input terminal nor
allow the power source to come into contact with the sensor.
• Use a thermocouple and compensating lead wire according to the sensor input specifications of this
controller.
• Use the 3-wire RTD according to the sensor input specifications of this controller.
• For DC voltage input, (+) side input terminal number of 0 to 5 V DC, 1 to 5 V DC, 0 to 10 V DC differs
from that of 0 to 10 mV DC, -10 to 10 mV DC, 0 to 50 mV DC, 0 to 100 mV DC, 0 to 1 V DC.
Terminal Number DC Voltage Input
⑯ and ⑲ 0 to 5 V DC, 1 to 5 V DC, 0 to 10 V DC
⑱ and ⑲ 0 to 10 mV DC, -10 to 10 mV DC, 0 to 50 mV DC,
0 to 100 mV DC, 0 to 1 V 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 power sources or load wires.

3. Operation and Maintenance Precautions

Caution
• It is recommended that AT be performed on the trial run.
• When connecting USB communication cable (CMB-001) to the console connector, connect the cable
after power is turned OFF.
• Never turn the power ON or OFF, while USB communication cable (CMB-001) is connected to the
console connector.
• Do not touch live terminals. This may cause electrical shock or problems in operation.
• Turn the power supply to the instrument OFF before retightening the terminal or cleaning.
Working on or touching the terminal with the power switched ON may result in severe injury or death
due to electrical shock.
• Use a soft, dry cloth when cleaning the instrument.

 Explanation of the Program Pattern
Step 0: After program control starts, control is performed so that SV gradually rises from 0
to 500 for 30 minutes.
Step 1: Control is performed to keep the SV at 500 for 1 hour.
Step 2: Control is performed so that SV gradually rises from 500 to 1000 for 40 minutes.
Step 3: Control is performed to keep the SV at 1000 for 1 hour.
Step 4: Control is performed so that SV gradually falls from 1000 to 0 for 2 hours.

• Example of Block Setting

How to set each block setting group
If program pattern is not set for a step, its block number becomes 0 (zero). We highly recommend
that you leave the factory default values of Block 0 in each block setting group as they are, and set
the values from Block 1.

Setting Group Setting Item Setting Example

PID block setting group Block 0 OUT1 proportional band 10
(*1) Block 0 integral time 200 sec
Block 0 derivative time 50 sec
Block 0 ARW 50%
Block 1 OUT1 proportional band 10
Block 1 integral time 200 sec
Block 1 derivative time 50 sec
Block 1 ARW 50%
Block 2 OUT1 proportional band 10
Block 2 integral time 200 sec
Block 2 derivative time 50 sec
Block 2 ARW 50%

Block 0 EV4 alarm value 0 (*4)
Block 1 EV2 alarm value 600
Block 1 EV3 alarm value 5
Block 1 EV4 alarm value 5
Block 2 EV2 alarm value 1100
Block 2 EV3 alarm value 10

Output block setting Block 0 OUT1 high limit 100% (*5)
group Block 0 OUT1 low limit 0% (*5)
Block 1 OUT1 high limit 80%
Block 1 OUT1 low limit 0%
(*1) As PID constant are obtained by performing AT, values in the PID block setting group are factory default value.
(*2) As EV1 is used as Pattern end output, ‘EV1 alarm value’ setting item does not appear.
(*3) As ‘Block 0 Wait value’ is used as Wait Disabled, the Wait value is factory default value.
(*4) As Block 0 EV2, EV3 and EV4 alarm values are used as No alarm action, their values are factory default value.
(*5) As Block 0 OUT1 high limit and low limit are used as MV setting range for manual control, their values are factory
default value.

① Time signal output operates in a sequence of Time signal output OFF time and then Time
signal output ON time.
The Time signal output automatically turns OFF when Time signal output ON time expires
within a step.

- 50 -
 ② If ON time is the same value as the step time, the Time signal output will turn OFF for
a brief moment while Step numbers change.
Therefore, set the Time signal output ON time longer than the step time so that Time signal
output may turn ON even when steps changes.
③ When ON time is not the same value as the step time, from the point where steps move to
the next step, the Time signal output operates following the Time signal output OFF or ON
time of the next step, regardless of the Time signal output settings of the previous step.

[Sensor correction function]

When a sensor cannot be set at the exact location where control is desired, the
sensor-measured temperature may deviate from the temperature in the
controlled location. When using multiple indicating controllers, sometimes the
measured temperatures do not concur due to differences 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. However, it is effective
within the input rated range regardless of the sensor correction value.

PV filter time constant
• Sets PV filter time constant.
If the value is set too high, it affects control results due to the delay of

[PV filter time constant]

This is a filter function on the software, which has the same effect as a CR
filter. By calculating first-order lag of PV, this suppresses input fluctuation
caused by noise.
When the input value changes as shown in (Fig. 7.5.1-1), this function
makes the input change slowly, as shown in (Fig. 7.5.1-2).
T (PV filter time constant) is the time when input change reaches 63% of the
desired PV.

Standard Function
Wait function During program control, the program does not proceed to the next step
until the deviation between PV and SV enters SV Wait value at the end
of step.
The STEP Display flashes while the Wait function is working.
Hold function During program control, progress of current step can be suspended.
Pressing the key cancels suspension, and program control
resumes.
During manual control, suspension cannot be cancelled.
Advance function Interrupts current step during program control, and proceeds to the
beginning of the next step.
Return to previous function Stops current perfroming step, and returns to the previous program
step. If the elapsed time of the current step is less than 1 minute, the
program control returns to the beginning of the previous step.
If the elapsed time of the current step is longer than 1 minute, the
program control returns to the beginning of the current step.
This function is disabled at Step 0 of started pattern, but returns to the
beginning of Step 0.
Repetitions and pattern link Patterns 0 to 15 can be linked to the next pattern. Only pattern numbers
function in numerical order can be linked. For Pattern 15, Pattern 0 can be
linked.
Number of repetitions for Patterns 0 to 15: 0 to 9999 times.
For repetitions of linked pattern, the whole linked pattern will be
repeated as many times as set in “starting pattern number”.

Power restore action If power fails during program control, the controller can be operated
depending on the selection in [Power restore action].
Stops after power is restored: Stops program control, and returns to
Standby mode.
Continues after power is restored: Continues (Resumes) previous
program control after power is restored.
Suspends after power is restored: Suspends (on hold) current program
control, and performs control using the step SV from the point of
suspension. Pressing the key cancels suspension, and
program control resumes.
Progressing time error when power is restored: 1 minute

13. Making Program Pattern Table and Data Table
Before setting program, make a program pattern table and data table.

13.1 Making Program Pattern Table

Please make a copy of the program pattern table (p.177), and follow the procedure below.
(1) Write a block number (Step SV, Step time, PID, Time signal 1 to 8, Wait, Alarm, Output) for
each step from Step 0 in numerical order.
(Even if the same block number is used, write for every step.)
(2) Draw a line graph of step SV.

Explanation of Program Pattern Table

Program pattern table consists of Y axis which represents the step SV ( , ), and X axis which
represents the step time (Hours:Minutes, Minutes:Seconds).
Step SV is considered to be the SV at the end of the step.
Step time is considered to be the step process time.
• The relation between the step SV and Step time can be explained as follows.
Step 0: The control is performed so that the temperature reaches from 0 to 500 for 30 minutes.
Depending on the selection in [Program control start type], control is performed as follows.
• When SV start is selected: Performs control from the step SV set in [Step SV when
program control starts] so that the temperature reaches 500 .
• When PV start or PVR start is selected: Step SV and time are advanced to PV, and
control starts so that the temperature reaches 500 .
Step 1: The control is performed so that SV is maintained at 500 for 1 hour.
Step 2: The control is performed so that SV rises from 500 to 1000 for 40 minutes.
Step 3: The control is performed so that SV is maintained at 1000 for 1 hour.
Step 4: The control is performed so that SV drops from 1000 to 0 for 2 hours.
• PID block includes: OUT1 proportional band, Integral time, Derivative time, ARW, OUT2 proportional
band
10 types of PID block (0 – 9) can be set.
• Time signal 1 to 8 (TS1 – TS8) includes: Time signal output OFF time and Time signal output ON
time.
16 types of Time signal block (0 – 15) can be set for Time signal 1 to 8 (TS1 – TS8) respectively.
For Time signal 1 to 5 (TS1 – TS5), the Time signal output can be used only when Time signal output
is selected in [Time signal output/Status output].
• Wait block includes Wait values.
10 types of Wait block (0 – 9) can be set.
• Alarm block includes: EV1 alarm value, EV2 alarm value, EV3 alarm value, EV4 alarm value
10 types of Alarm block (0 – 9) can be set.
• Output block includes: OUT1 high limit, OUT1 low limit, OUT2 high limit, OUT2 low limit, OUT1
rate-of-change.
10 types of Output block (0 – 9) can be set.

13.2 Making Data Table
Please make a copy of Data Table (p.178), and follow the procedure below.
(1) Write data for blocks in each group, by referring to the Block numbers in the Program pattern table.
(2) For other setting items, write the data in the table if required.

About settings in each block setting group

If program pattern is not set for a step, its block number becomes 0 (zero). We highly recommend that
you leave the factory default values of Block 0 in each block setting group as they are, and set the
values from Block 1.

Data Table Example

• PID block setting group (*1)
OUT1 Integral Derivative OUT2
Block number ARW
P-band time time P-band
0 10 200 sec 50 sec 50% 1.0 times
1 10 200 sec 50 sec 50% 1.0 times
2 10 200 sec 50 sec 50% 1.0 times

0 100% (*5) 0% (*5) 100% 0% 0 %/sec
1 80% 0% 80% 0% 10 %/sec
2 100% 10% 100% 10% 0 %/sec

(*1) As PID constant are obtained by performing AT, values in the PID block setting group are factory default value.
(*2) As ‘Block 0 Wait value’ is used as Wait Disabled, the Wait value is factory default value.
(*3) As EV1 is used as Pattern end output, ‘EV1 alarm value’ setting item does not appear.
(*4) As Block 0 EV2, EV3, EV4 alarm values are used as No alarm action, their values are factory default value.
(*5) As Block 0 OUT1 high limit and low limit are used as MV setting range for manual control, their values are factory
default value.
