AutoTune
Running
Button Functions:
(▲) (UP arrow) - Scroll Up
Allows the operator to adjust temperature setting and parameter options (See PARAMETERS
section for more information).
(▼) (DOWN arrow) - Scroll Down and Quick Temperature Setpoint Access
Quick access to modify controller setpoint value when pushed once. Allows the operator to adjust
temperature setting and parameter options (See PARAMETERS section on page 8 for more
information).
(U) button - Perform a PID Autotune
Once connected to the heater and process the operator wishes to control, press (U) button to start
an Autotune to determine appropriate PID parameters. This should be done anytime the controller
is setup for a new process. Press and hold the (U) button until the "Tun" (Autotune) LED starts to
flash. PID parameters can also be manually input if they are already known.
(P) button - Programming Mode
Grants access to program the temperature controllers parameters (See PARAMETERS section on
page 7 for more information).
Quick Start Operation:
1.
Default temperature setpoint is 0, default unit is °F.
2.
Press (▼) to access / change the temperature setpoint parameter.
3.
Use (▲▼) buttons to adjust the temperature to desired setpoint.
4.
Press and Hold the (P) button to exit the temperature setpoint parameter.
To Change Temperature Units (°C or °F) or Element Type:
1.
Press and hold the (P) button for approximately 5 seconds.
2.
Use (▲▼) buttons to select the "SEn" (sensor) parameter keyword on the controller.
3.
Press the (P) button to select. The controller will alternately flash the parameter's keyword (SEn)
and its current value.
4.
Use (▲▼) to adjust the parameter value. See PARAMETERS section on page 8 for more
information.
5.
Press the (P) button to save the desired value. The display will return to flashing only the selected
parameter's keyword.
6.
Exit the programming mode by pressing and holding (▲) for approximately five seconds or wait 30
seconds for the controller to automatically exit the programming mode. When the temperature
displays, the controller is no longer in the programming mode.

Configuration of Parameters:
1.
Press and hold the (P) button for approximately 5 seconds. Use (▲▼) buttons to select the
desired parameter keyword.
2.
Press the (P) button to select the desired parameter. The controller will alternately flash the
parameter keyword and its current value.
3.
Adjust parameter values by using (▲▼) buttons.
4.
Press the (P) button to save the new value. The display will flash only the parameter keyword.
5.
Use (▲▼) buttons to select another parameter to modify using the steps above.
6.
To exit the programming mode, with only a parameter keyword flashing, press and hold (▲) for
approximately five seconds. OR, wait 30 seconds for the controller to automatically exit
programming mode and display the current temperature measurement.
