Profile Header: Settings that apply to the chosen profile as a whole

 

Enter Profile Name

Up to 16 characters can be used to name each profile

 

Profile Starting

The setpoint value to be used at the beginning of the first segment.

 

Point

 

From: Actual Setpoint or Process Variable value at the time the

 

 

 

profile starts.

 

Profile Start

From: None (profile start is not delayed); After Delay or Day and

 

Trigger

 

Time (Recorder version only).

 

Profile Start Time

The time (hh:mm:ss) when the profile should run. – This applies only

 

 

 

if Day and Time is the Profile Start Trigger. Caution: Take care not

 

 

 

to clash with other profiles. A Profile cannot start if another is

 

 

 

running.

 

Profile Start Day(s)

The Day(s) when the profile should run. From: Mon; Tue; Wed; Thu;

 

 

 

Fri; Sat; Sun; Mon-Fri; Mon-Sat; Sat-Sun or All. – This applies only if

 

 

 

Day and Time is the Profile Start Trigger.

 

Profile Start Delay

The delay time, up to 99:59 (hh:mm), for a profile to begin after the

 

 

 

start request has been given.

 

Profile Recovery

The power-on action if profile was running at power-down (e.g. after

 

Method

 

a power cut), or following correction of a signal break. From: Control

 

 

 

outputs off; Restart profile from the beginning; Maintain last profile

 

 

 

setpoint; Use controller setpoint; Continue profile from where it was

 

 

 

when power failed.

 

Profile Recovery

The Recovery Method is ignored (the profile continues from where

 

Time

 

power failed), if power off for less than this time. Max 99:59

 

 

 

(hh:mm). - Recorder version only.

 

Profile Abort

Action after profile has been forced to stop before its end. From:

 

Action

 

Control outputs off; Maintain last profile setpoint or Use controller

 

 

 

setpoint.

 

Profile Cycles

The number of times the program should run each time it is started

 

 

 

(1-9999 or Infinite).

 

Profile Segments: Settings that apply to individual profile segments

 

Segment Number

Shows the number of the profile segment being created from 1-255

 

Segment Type

Set the segment type from: Ramp Time (time to reach target SP);

 

 

 

Ramp Rate (rate of change towards target SP); Step (jump to target

 

 

 

SP), Dwell (keep current SP); Hold (hold the profile until released);

 

 

 

Loop (back to a previous segment); Join (join to another profile);

 

 

 

End (end the profile) or Repeat Sequence Then End (repeat a

 

 

 

sequence of joined profiles – of which this is the last). A Join, End or

 

 

 

Repeat Sequence Then End will become the last segment in the

 

 

 

profile.

 

Segment Target

The setpoint value to be reached by the end of this segment, if the

 

Setpoint

 

segment type is Ramp Time, Ramp Rate or Step.

 

Segment Ramp

The time (hh:mm:ss) to reach the Segment Target Setpoint if the

 

Time

 

segment type is Ramp Time.

 

Segment Ramp

The rate of change towards the Segment Target Setpoint if the

 

Rate

 

segment type is Ramp Rate. The rate can be set from 0.001 to

 

 

 

9999.9 display units per hour.

 

Segment Dwell

The time (hh:mm:ss) to maintain the current setpoint if the segment

 

Time

 

type is Dwell.
