8.3 Dual Action Heating-Cooling
ATR243 is also suitable also for systems requiring a combined heating-
cooling action.
The command output must be configured as Heating PID

alarms (
The command output must be connected to the actuator responsible
for heat, while the alarm will control cooling action.
The parameters to configure for the Heating PID are:
=
: Heating proportional band
: Integral time of heating and cooling
: Derivative time of heating and cooling
: Heating time cycle
The parameters to configure for the Cooling PID are the following
(example: action associated to alarm1):
=
: Proportional band multiplier
: Overlapping/Dead band
: Cooling time cycle
The parameter
proportional band of cooling basing on the formula:
Cooling proportional band =
This gives a proportional band for cooling which will be the same as
heating band if
The integral time and derivative time are the same for both actions.
