protection alarms. The custom display provides a complete view of the process. Universal thermocouple, RTD or process linear input coupled
with a responsive, SMART auto-tuning PID control algorithm that is equipped with special functions including soft start and non linear cooling.
A complete set of process protection alarm functions, high and low limit, band and deviation are included.
Optional features include: CT input- HBD, OFD Servo valve positioner, (mA) linear control or retransmission outputs, ModBus communication
interface option.
CONFIGURATION PROGRAM
The configuration software simplifies the instrument configuration, parameter adjustment and program editing. A complete instrument
configuration may be saved from, and downloaded to the instrument providing a quick and reliable method to maintain instrument settings.

PREPROGRAMMED OUTPUT CHARACTERISTICS
Quick opening and equal percentage valve flow characteristic are automatically compensated by the output linearisation facility. This function
linearises the ratio between flow rate and valve travel in order to obtain a better control of the process.

- output low limits
- output max. rate of rise.
selectable by front pushbutton or logic input.
SET POINT
These instruments are supplied with 4 local set points (selectable by external contact) and an input for the remote set point (RSP).
The transfer from one set point to another may be done by a step transfer or by a ramp with two different programmable rates of rise (ramp up
and ramp down).
Set point limiters:
Rate of change for set
point variations:
Digital filter:
set point low limit and set point high limit programmable.
from 1 to 200 digits per minute or excluded.

- set point selection (SP3-SP4).
- local/remote set point selection.
- auto/manual mode selection.
- output limiter activation.
- data Hold of the measured value.

according to EIA standard.
HOLD FUNCTION
By an external contact it is possible to stop the input sampling keeping the last measured value frozen.
SOFT START
The Soft-start feature provides time based output power limit protection. Limiting the heater power during startup reduces potential thermal stress
on the heating elements. Both the Soft-start time and temperature threshold are configurable.
