The auto-tuning process is performed at set point.
The process will oscillate around the set point during tuning process.
Set a set point to a lower value if overshooting beyond the normal

The auto-tuning is applied in cases of :
Initial setup for a new process
The set point is changed substantially from the previous auto-tuning

Operation :Operation :
1. The system has been installed normally.
2. Use the default values for PID before tuning.
The default values are : PB1=PB2=18.0 F
TI1=TI2=100 sec, TD1=TD2=25.0 sec, Of course, you can use other
reasonable values for PID before tuning according to your previous
experiences. But don't use a zero value for PB1 and TI1 or PB2 and
TI2, otherwise, the auto-tuning program will be disabled.

Procedures:
Any ramp function, remote set point or pump function, if used,
will be disabled once auto-tuning is activated.

The auto-tuning can be applied either as the process is warming up
or as the process has been in steady state

If the auto-tuning begins apart from the set point (Cold Start), the unit
enters . As the process reaches the set point value, the
unit enters . The waiting cycle elapses a double integral
time (Ti1 or TI2, dependent on the selection, see ) then it
enters a The double integral time is introduced to allow
the process to reach a stable state. Before learning cycle, the unit
performs function with a PID control. While in learning cycle the
unit performs function with an ON-OFF control. Learning
cycle is used to test the characteristics of the process. The data are
measured and used to determine the optimal PID values. At the end of
the two successive ON-OFF cycles the PID values are obtained and
automatically stored in the nonvolatile memory.
After the auto-tuning procedures are completed, the process display
will cease to flash and the unit revert to PID control by using its new PID
values.
During pre-tune stage the PID values will be modified if any unstable
phenomenon which is caused by incorrect PID values is detected.
Without pre-tune stage, like other conventional controllers, the tuning
result will be strongly related to the time when the auto-tuning is
applied. Hence different values will be obtained every time as auto-
tuning is completed without pre-tune. It is particularly true when the
Warm-up cycle
waiting cycle
learning cycle.
