| The CONTROL ALGORITHM lets you select | |

|
|
|
| the type of control that is best for your | |||

|
| ON/OFF is the simplest control type. The | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| output can be either ON (100 %) or OFF (0 | |||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| %). The Process Variable (PV) is compared | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| with the setpoint (SP) to determine the sign | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| of the error (ERROR = | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| ON/OFF algorithm operates on the sign of | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| the error signal. | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| In Direct Acting Control, when the error | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| signal is positive, the output is 100 %; and | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| when the error signal is negative, the output | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| is 0 %. If the control action is reverse, the | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| opposite is true. An adjustable overlap | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (Hysteresis Band) is provided between the | |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| on and off states. | |
