Second level (P-level)
Setting of control parameters
In order to prevent accidental or unauthorised changes to the pre-set parameter values, access to the P-
Level has been made difficult.
Simultaneously pressing the UP and DOWN button for about 3 seconds switches the controller to the P-
Level, and allows adjustment of the P parameters. The display now shows P1
To display and adjust the value of P1, press the SET button and the existing value of P1 is displayed.
By simultaneously pressing the SET button and either the UP or DOWN button this value can be increased or
decreased as required. Release the UP or DOWN button before releasing the SET button and the new value
is saved into the non-volatile memory.
Use the UP or DOWN button to select the remaining P-parameters, and these can be adjusted in a similar
manner.

To return to the operating mode: Simultaneously press the UP and DOWN button for aprox. 3 seconds and
the display will again show the process temperature. In any case if no adjustment of the parameters is made
for 30 seconds, the controller will automatically return to the operating mode.

Second level, P-Parameters
P1: Setpoint 2 or Delta W
Two types of output relay control are available (see A5 for selection method).
The first control variation :
Contacts K1 and K2 are linked together with an adjustable switch separation Delta W (operation with Delta W).
This separation can have either a positive or negative value to provide a leading or trailing second contact. In this
variation the controller can also be used as a three-point controller.

The second control variation

Contacts K1 and K2 are independent of each other and are freely adjustable. (operation with Setpoint 2).
Contact K1 operates at Setpoint 1, and K2 operates at Setpoint 2 and can be set as a limit value.
Note: With PID control of contact K2, both contacts K1 and K2 work towards Setpoint 1

P2/P3: Hysteresis K1/K2

The hysteresis for contact K1 can be either symmetrical about the Setpoint, or to one side of the Setpoint (parameter
A40). If symmetrical hysteresis has been selected, then one half of the total hysteresis is above and half below the
Setpoint.
If one side of Setpoint has been selected, then the total hysteresis is below the Setpoint in the heating mode and above
the Setpoint in the cooling mode (see Figure 4).
Please note that small hysteresis values lead to an increased switching frequency and that the lifetime of the output
relays is decreased correspondingly. In critical cases, the controller can be equipped with semiconductor relays.

P4/P5: Control range limitation - minimum/maximum Setpoint

Upper and lower control range limits can be set for the Setpoint. This prevents the end user from adjusting the controller
to unattainable or dangerous Setpoints.

P19: Keyboard lock

The keyboard lock disables the controller keypad and prevents operator adjustment of the Setpoint.

P20: Actual value sensor F1

This parameter allows to see the actual value, without leaving the programming level

P21: Actual value correction sensor F1

A + or - calibration adjustment can be made to the Actual Value indication. It is effective over the entire measurement
range.

P22: Actual value sensor F2

This parameter allows to see the actual value, without leaving the programming level

P23: Actual value correction sensor F3

A + or - calibration adjustment can be made to the Actual Value indication. It is effective over the entire measurement
range.

P30/P31: Lower/Upper boundary value for alarm sensor F1

the alarm values have an adjustable hysteresis (see P34). It can be set to operate as either a boundary or a range
alarm.

P32/P33: Lower/Upper boundary value for alarm sensor F2

the alarm values have an adjustable hysteresis (see P34). It can be set to operate as either a boundary or a range
alarm.

P34: Hysteresis alarm

The hysteresis for the alarm is allways to one side of the Setpoint.

P35: Lower value for fixed setpoint control on following sensor

IThe differential control is deactvated if the temperature goes below the value set in this parameter.

P35: Upper value for fixed setpoint control on following sensor

IThe differential control is deactvated if the temperature goes above the value set in this parameter.

A1: Switch mode control output 1
A2: Switch mode control output 2
Contact direction, i.e. cooling or heating function, can be individually set for each output relay.
Heating function - The output relay contact opens when the Setpoint is reached to switch the heating OFF
Cooling function - The output relay contact closes when the temperature is higher than the Setpoint and
switches the cooling power ON.

A3: Sensor error control output 1

A4: Sensor error control output 2
In the event of sensor open circuit or sensor short circuit, "F1-" flashes in the display.
Should this occur, each output relay can be independently programmed to switch ON or OFF..

A5: Selection Setpoint 2/Delta W

This gives a choice of either 2 independently adjustable contacts (Setpoint 2 operation),
or 2 interdependent contacts a pre-set distance apart (Delta W operation). See parameter "P1".

A30: Boundary Alarm function:

Boundary alarm:
If A30 is set to 0, K4 switches ON (contacts close) when the process temperature is above the upper or
below the lower boundaries. The values set in the parameters P30-P33 are related to the setpoint
If A30 is set to 1, K4 switches ON (contacts open) when the process temperature is above the upper or
below the lower boundaries. The values set in the parameters P30-P33 are absolute values.

A31: Other Alarm functions:

These parameters give the choice of a steady or flashing display with or without buzzer under alarm
conditions.

ST501-LN1KV.04FS 7
