Output Deviation for PID Control
The PID loop error is defined as the
magnitude (absolute value) of the difference
between the Setpoint (target value) and the
Process Variable (actual value). When the
error magnitude exceeds the preset value
for C044, the [OD] terminal signal turns ON.
Refer to “PID Loop Operation” on page 4–
56.

Function Name State Description
ON when PID error is more than the set threshold for
the deviation signal.
04 OD Output Deviation for
PID Control
OFF when PID error is less than the set threshold for
the deviation signal
Valid for inputs: 11, AL0 – AL2
Required settings C044
Notes:
• The default difference value is set to 3%. To
change this value, change parameter C044
(deviation level).
• The example circuit for terminal [11] drives a
relay coil. Note the use of a diode to prevent the
negativegoing turn-off spike generated by the
coil from damaging the inverter’s output
transistor.
Example for terminal [11] (default output
configuration shown – see page 3-54):
Example for terminal [AL0], [AL1], [AL2] (requires
output configuration – see page 4-35 and 3-54):
