4.6 Auto Tuning Function
This function is designed for the Q64TCN to set the optimum PID constants automatically. In auto tuning, the PID
constants are calculated according to the hunting cycle and amplitude generated by repeated overshoot and
undershoot of the process value (PV) against the set value (SV) due to the on-off action of control output.
(1) Auto tuning operation
The Q64TCN operates as follows.
Remark
The time takes for auto tuning depends on the control subject.
Operation of the Q64TCN
1 Starts auto-tuning
2
Collects data from the point when the temperature process value (PV) reaches the set value (SV) after the first
overshoot and undershoot
3
After data collection, auto tuning ends when PID constants and loop disconnection detection judgment time are
set.
