Adjustment Level Section 5-4
If the heating characteristics and cooling characteristics of the control object
are very different and good control characteristics cannot be achieved with the
same PID constants, the cooling coefficient can be used to adjust the propor-
tional band (P) for the control output assigned to the cooling side.
In heating/cooling control, the proportional band P for the cooling control out-
put is calculated using the following formula to set the cooling coefficient:
Cooling control output side P = Cooling coefficient
× P (proportional band)

Proportional band (adjustment level): Page 138
This parameter sets the output dead band width for heating/cooling control. A
negative setting sets an overlapping band.
• This parameter sets an area in which the control output is 0 centering
around the set point for a heating/cooling control.
• During temperature input, the decimal point position depends on the cur-
rently selected sensor, and during analog input it depends on the “decimal
point” parameter setting.
Note Set “none” as the unit for Controllers with Analog Inputs.
