4.4 Setpoint Ramp/Rate Set Up Group
Introduction
This data deals with enabling Single Setpoint Ramp function or Setpoint
Rate on one or both control loops. You can start or stop the ramp by
pressing the FUNC key and the key simultaneously.
A single setpoint ramp can be configured to occur between the current
local setpoint and a final local setpoint over a time interval of from 1 to
255 minutes.
There is also a configurable rate of change for any local setpoint change.
ATTENTION
SPRAMP and SRRATE will probably cause the SP
portion of Accutune to abort. PV Tune will function normally.

SINGLE SETPOINT RAMP — make a selection to
enable or disable the setpoint ramp function. Make
sure you configure a ramp time and a final setpoint
value.
DISABLE SETPOINT RAMP — Disables the
setpoint ramp option
ENABLE SETPOINT RAMP — Allows the single
setpoint ramp prompts for Loop 1 to be shown.
ENABLE SETPOINT RAMP — Allows the single
setpoint ramp to run in Loop 2.
ENABLE SETPOINT RAMP — Allows the single
setpoint ramp to be run on Loop 1 and Loop 2.
TIME MIN
0 to 255 minutes
SETPOINT RAMP TIME — Enter the number of
minutes desired to reach the final setpoint.
A ramp time of “0” implies and immediate change of
setpoint.
FINAL SP
Within SP limits
SETPOINT RAMP FINAL SETPOINT — Enter the
value desired for the final setpoint. The controller will
operate at the setpoint set here when ramp is ended.
ATTENTION
If the ramp is on "HOLD", the held
setpoint can be changed by the
or keys.
However, the ramp time remaining and original ramp
rate is not changed. Therefore, when returning to
RUN mode, the setpoint will ramp at the same rate
as previous to the local setpoint change and will stop
if the final setpoint is reached before the time
expires. If the time expires before the final setpoint
is reached, it will jump to the final setpoint.
ATTENTION
SP RAMP and SP RATE will cause
the SP portion of Accutune to abort. PV Tune will
continue to function normally.
