AC2-5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
■ To eliminate the error indication and return to the normal mode, press button
Control improvement
■ To reduce overshoot, reduce the integral action reset 1AR
■ To increase the response speed of the system, reduce the proportional band 1PB. Caution: doing this makes the system less stable.
■ To reduce swings in steady-state temperature, increase the integral action time 1IT; system stability is thus increased, although
its response speed is decreased.
■ To increase the speed of response to the variations in temperature, increase the derivative action time 1DT. Caution: a high
value makes the system sensitive to small variations and it may be a source of instability.

The steady-state error is cancelled by inserting an
integral action. The integral action time, determines
the speed with which the steady-state temperature
is achieved, but a high speed (1IT low) may be the
cause of overshoot and instability in the response.
With 1IT=0 the integral control is disabled.

It’s the period in which the output ON time changes. The quicker the system to be controlled
reacts to temperature variations, the smaller the cycle time must be, in order to obtain higher

process and set a longer cycle time 1CT.
■ E3 temperature overrange: check that the error was not caused by a probe malfunction, then decrease 1SP in case of heating
control, vice versa increase 1SP in case of refrigerating control and then re-start the process.
■ E4 device not configured correctly: the device has an incorrect configuration of the 1CM parameter. Enter the menu and check that

Summary of Contents
- Page 1: AC2-5 instructions for use To eliminate the error indication and return to the normal mode, press the button. To reduce overshoot, reduce the integral action reset 1AR. To increase the response speed of the system, reduce the proportional band 1PB. Caution: doing this makes the system less stable. To reduce swings in steady-state temperature, increase the integral action time 1IT; system stability is thus increased, although its response speed is decreased. To increase the speed of response to the variations in temperature, increase the derivative action time 1DT. Caution: a high value makes the system sensitive to small variations and it may be a source of instability. Thank you for having chosen a LAE electronic product. Before installing the instrument, please read these instructions carefully to ensure maximum performance and safety. Power supply AC2-5...L* 7...30 Vdc / 12Vac ±10%, 3W. Minimum ON time is 0...30min. After output 2 has been turned ON, it remains active for 2T0 minutes regardless of the temperature value measured.
- Page 2: Amélioration du contrôle Pour réduire le dépassement, diminuer le reset de l’action intégrale. Pour augmenter la rapidité du système, diminuer la bande proportionnelle; attention, de cette manière le système sera moins stable. Pour réduire les oscillations de la température en régime, augmenter le temps de l’action intégrale; on augmente de cette manière la stabilité du système mais on en diminue la rapidité. Nous vous remercions d’avoir choisi un produit LAE electronic. Pour que votre instrument soit le plus sûr et le plus performant possible, il est indispensable d’en lire attentivement le mode d’emploi. Temps minimum d'activation. Après une activation, la sortie 2 reste active pendant 2T0 minutes, indépendamment de la valeur de température. Pour augmenter la vitesse de réponse aux variations de température, augmenter le temps de l’action dérivée; attention: une valeur élevée rend le système sensible aux petites variations et peut être source d’instabilité. Après un arrêt, la sortie 2 reste désactivée pendant 2T1 minutes, indépendamment de la valeur de température. Alarme de température avec seuils relatifs en réfrigération. Alarme de température avec seuils relatifs en chauffage. Le contrôle de la température s’active en variant le temps de ON de la sortie: plus la température est proche du point de consigne, plus bref sera le temps d’activation.
