###### CHAPTER 1INTRODUCTION
From its surge-resistant power supply to its rugged construction, the 545 process controller is designed to ensure the integrity of your process with maximum reliability — hour after hour, day after day. The isolated inputs and outputs guard against the dangers of electrical interference, the front face meets NEMA 4X standards for watertight operation and exposure to corrosive environments, and the solid metal housing and sturdy rubber keys enhance durability and ESD protection. The 545 has been engineered to be the industry’s most user–friendly process controller. With three digital display areas — two offering up to 9 characters of true alphanumerics — the 545 effectively eliminates the cryptic messages that could confuse even the most experienced operator. The bright, crisp display is vacuum fluorescent, and offers much better readability than any other display technology. Additional operator–friendly features include: custom programmable alarm messages, illuminated keys, and an easy to use menu system. The 545 is the most accurate instrument in its class. With a sampling rate of eight times per second, it is ideal for demanding pressure and flow applications. The 545 also offers two universal process inputs and modular, field interchangeable outputs that allow more flexibility than ever before. With two independent full feature control loops, the 545 can take the place of two PID controllers; additionally, preprogrammed functions can be called for cascade, ratio and feed forward applications.
The 545 uses foreground and background loops that facilitate straight forward operator interface in any of the dual loop modes. It also offers sophisticated control algorithms, including heuristic adaptive tuning, split range and duplex outputs (control), and open or closed loop electric actuator control (velocity control).
Thank you for selecting the dual loop Process Controller. The 545 is user-configurable for any of the following functions:
Specifications and information subject to change without notice.
########### 545 MODES
There are three operating modes for the 545 controller: OPERATION, the default mode of the controller. When the 545 is operating, you can change setpoints, select manual control and change output level, acknowledge alarms and monitor conditions.
SET UP, also referred to as configuration. Here you set up the basic functions of the instrument such as input and output assignments, alarm types and special functions
TUNING, where you configure function parameters for Proportional, Integral and Derivation (PID) control. Use this mode periodically to optimize the control performance of the instrument.

########### BASIC OPERATION PROCEDURES A Quick Explanation of Dual Loop Operation
Upon power up, Loop 1 is in the foreground (displayed), and Loop 2 is in the “background” (hidden). Set up changes only affect the foreground loop; to make changes to the operation of the background loop, it must be brought to the foreground.
The controller helps the user identify the foreground and background loops with the following:
Use the following as a quick guide to key operating functions of your 545. Most of these procedures will affect whichever loop is in the foreground at the time you execute the procedures. Those that are specified by the wordGLOBALwill affect both loops (the whole controller).
############### To switch the foreground and background loops
############### 1. Press FAST+DISPLAY. To select /change a setpoint
Before the newly selected setpoint is made active, there is a two-second delay to prevent any disruptive bumps. If the setpoint displayed is ramping, RAMPING will show the 3rd display.
############### To change from manual to auto
############### To change manual output values
If a locked operation is attempted, SECURITY appears in the 2nd display for two seconds.
################################## NOTE:
See the glossary in Appendix 6 for explanation of rampingand target setpoint. Also refer to the section in
Chapter 7.
################################## NOTE:
All alarms are software alarms unless tied to an output relay in the SET UP mode. See Chapter 5 and Chapter 7 for more details on alarms.
############### To display control output value
############### To display the active PID set
########### ALARM OPERATION
Alarms may be used in systems to provide warnings of unsafe conditions. All 545 operators must know how the alarms are configured, the consequences of acknowledging an alarm, and how to react to alarm conditions.
############### Alarm Indication
Depending on how the system is configured, the 545 indicates an alarm condition(s) for the foreground loop by:
To acknowledge an alarm(s): An acknowledgeable alarm has both a lit icon and a lit ACK key. A non-acknowledgeable alarm has only a lit icon. Figure 2.2 demonstrates acknowledging an alarm.

Latching Alarms If an alarm is set up to be latching (for details, see Chapter 5) then, in general, it must be acknowledged in order to clear the alarm and release the relay (if applicable). A non-latching alarm will clear itself as soon as the process leaves the alarm condition. Limit Sequence
An alarm can be configured to be both latching and non-acknowledgeable. In this case, the alarm is acknowledgeable only after the process has left the alarm condition. This is similar to the function of a limit controller.
More on Alarms For more details on how to set up alarms and for examples of various ways alarms can be set up, refer to the section on Alarms in Chapter 7.
############################################## NOTE:
Powering down the 545 acknowledges/ clears all latched alarms. When powering up, all alarms will be reinitialized.

CAUTION ! The enclosure into which the 545 Controller is mounted must be grounded.
WARNING! Avoid electrical shock. Do not connect AC power wiring at the source distribution panel until all wiring connections are complete.
########### WIRING
Our 545 controllers are thoroughly tested, calibrated and “burned in” at the factory, so the controller is ready to install. Before beginning, read this chapter thoroughly and take great care in planning a system. A properly designed system can help prevent problems such as electrical noise disturbances and dangerous extreme conditions.
Diagrams on the next three pages serve as guides for wiring different types of process inputs. The shaded areas on the diagrams show which rear terminals are used for that type of wiring.

Digital inputs can be activated in three ways: a switch (signal type), closure of a relay, or an open collector transistor. Digital inputs are only functional when that option is installed (via hardware). The controller detects the hardware and supplies the appropriate software menu.
############## 1. Digital Inputs with a switch or relay
Wire the switch/relay between terminal 17 and the specific digital input terminal (Figure 3.8).
############## 2. Digital Inputs with an Open Collector
An open collector is also called a transistor. Wire the transistor between terminal 17 and the specified digital input terminal (Figure 3.9)

########### OUTPUT MODULES
The 545 output modules are used for control, alarms and retransmission. The four output module types are: Mechanical Relay, Solid State Relay (Triac), DC Logic (SSR Drive) and Analog (Milliamp).
To install these modules, plug them into any of the four output sockets on the printed circuit boards (refer to Chapter 4). The wiring is the same whether the modules are used for control, alarm or retransmission.
The diagrams on the next two pages are a guide for properly connecting the various outputs. To find out which module(s) have been installed in the controller, compare the product number on the controller label with the section Order Code in Chapter 1. This section also includes a diagram of how to wire a position proportioning output, a special application using two mechanical or two solid state relays.

########### Serial Communications
A twisted shielded pair of wires should be used to interconnect the host and field units. Belden #9414 foil shield or #8441 braid shield 22-gauge wire are acceptable for most applications. The foil shielded wire has superior noise rejection characteristics. The braid shielded wire has more flexibility. The maximum recommended length of the RS 485 line is 4000 feet. Termination resistors are required at the host and the last device on the line. Some RS 485 cards/converters already have a terminating resistor. We recommend using RS-232/RS-485 converter (Product #500-485). The communication protocol is asynchronous bidirectional half-duplex, hence the leads are labelledComm +andComm –.

###### CHAPTER 4 HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
Hardware configuration determines the available outputs as well as the type of input signal. The 545 controller comes factory set with the following:
FRONT FACE
MICROCONTROLLERBOARD
POWER SUPPLYBOARD
OPTION BOARD
NOTE: Hardware configuration of the controller is available at the factory; Consult an application engineer for details.
Figure 4.1 Location of Printed Circuit Boards for Hardware Configuration
A detailed view of the circuit boards appears in Figure 4.2. After configuring the hardware, or if no changes are necessary, continue setting up the process as needed.
########### HARDWARE INPUT TYPES The Process Variable
The 545 accepts several different types of process variable signals. Set a jumper location to specify the type of input signal. Set the signal range in the software (see Chapter 5 for software menus, or Chapter 7 for applications).
The jumpers for the process variable are located on the Microcontroller Circuit Board (see Figure 4.2). The factory default is Milliamp. Locations are marked as follows:
V Voltage MA Milliamp TC ▼ Thermocouple with downscale burnout TC ▲ Thermocouple with upscale burnout RTD RTD
NOTE: Thermocouple downscale and upscale burnout offers a choice in which direction the controller would react in the event of thermocouple failure. For example, in heat applications, typically, it is desirable to fail upscale (TC ▲) so that the system does not apply more heat.
NOTE: Changing the jumpers means moving the jumper connector. The jumper connector slips over the pins, straddling two rows of pins. The printed circuit boards are labeled next to the jumpers.
The Remote Setpoint Figure 4.2 shows the location of the remote setpoint jumper. The factory default is milliamp. Choose from the following settings:
V Remote setpoint with voltage signal (jumper removed)
mA Remote setpoint with milliamp signal (jumper installed) Mechanical Relays
There are three output module sockets on the Power Supply Circuit Board, and one output module on the Option Board (see Figure 4.2). The mechanical relay on the Power Supply Board may be configured for either normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC). A jumper located next to each socket determines this configuration. All relay output are factory set to NO (normally open).

########## MENUS
InSETUPmode, there are 12 sets of options that control different aspects of 545 operation; in TUNING mode, there is one. Each set of options is called a menu. When traversing the two modes, the menu names appear in the 2nd display.
Most of the menus are loop dependent, that is, each loop has its own set of parameters for that menu. Three of the menus are global, that is, one set of parameters applies to both loops.
CONFIG (Global) Mode selectionandinput/output hardware assignments PV INPUT Process variable input options CUST. LINR. Linearization curve options for PV input. CONTROL Control options ALARMS Alarm options REM. SETPT. (Global) Controller remote setpoint options RETRANS.

################################# CAUTION!
All software changes occur in real time; always perform set up functions under manual operation.
NOTE: For information about the Tuning menu/mode, refer to Chapter 6. For more information about set up parameters and 545 applications, refer to Chapter 7.

########### PARAMETERS
Within each menu areparameters for particular control functions. Select values for each parameter depending on the specific application. Use the MENU key to access parameters for a particular menu; the parameter name will replace the menu name in the 2nd display, and the parameter value will show in the 3rd display.
This chapter outlinesallthe available parameters for the 545. Some parameters are independent of any special configuration, and others are dependent on the individual configuration. This manual displays these two types of parameters differently; refer to Figure 5.2. A special feature of the 545, called Smart Menus, determines the correct parameters to display for the specific configuration, so not all the listed parameters will appear.

###### CHAPTER 7 APPLICATIONS
The 545 controller provides a variety of user-programmable control features and capabilities. The following topics are included in this chapter:
NOTE: Controller capabilities depend upon the specified hardware option.
########### A. CONTROL TYPE
Each of the control loops in the 545 can be independently configured.
########### Software Configuration
on slow, stable processes where moderate deviation (cycling) around setpoint is tolerable. Only available with SSR, SSR Drive, and relay outputs.
NOTE: The ability to base alarms on parameters other than PV greatly expands the alarm capacity.
########### B. ALARMS
Each loop of the 545 controller has two extremely flexible and powerful software alarms (4 alarms total). The number of available outputs limits how alarms are linked to relays. A Global Alarm feature allows all alarms to be assigned to the same relay.
################################## The 545 indicates an alarm condition(s) for the foreground loop by:
########### Software Configuration
################################## ALM.TYPE:1and ALM. TYPE:2
Specifies the type of alarm to implement. Selection includes:
setpoint changes, the alarm point changes.
For example, if the control setpoint is 500 and the alarm setpoint is +50, then an alarm occurs when the process variable exceeds 550. In order for an alarm to occur when the process variable drops below 450, select an alarm setpoint of –50.
ALM.SRC.:1 and ALM.SRC.:2 For HIGH , LOW or HIGH/LOW alarms, specifies the variable (source) upon which a selected alarm is based. Selection includes:
################################## ALARM SP:1 and ALARM SP:2
Defines the point at which an alarm occurs. For a RATE (rate of change) alarm, it specifies the amount of change (per RATE TIME period) that must occur before the alarm activates. A negative value specifies a negative rate-of-change. Does not apply to HIGH/LOW alarms.
HIGH SP:1 and HIGH SP:2 For a HIGH/LOW alarm, defines the high setpoint at which an alarm occurs.
LOW SP:1 and LOW SP:2 For a HIGH/LOW alarm, defines the low setpoint at which an alarm occurs.
################################## DEADBAND:1 and DEADBAND:2
Specifies the range through which the process variable must travel before leaving an alarm condition (see alarm examples at the end of this section). Prevents frequent alarm oscillation or “chattering” if the process variable has stabilized around the alarm point.
################################## ALM.1 OUT and ALM.2 OUT
For any enabled alarm, selects the output number to which the selected alarm will be assigned. It is possible to assign both alarms to the same output relay, thus creating a “global” alarm .

NOTE: Each of the two loops has two alarms.| |---|
################################## LATCHING:1 and LATCHING:2
A latching (YES) alarm will remain active after leaving the alarm condition unless it is acknowledged. A non-latching (NO) alarm will return to the non-alarm state when leaving the alarm condition without being acknowledged.
################################## ACK.:1 and ACK.:2
For any enabled alarm, enables or disables operator use of theACKkey to acknowledge an alarm at any time, even if the control process is still in the alarm condition.
A latching alarm can always be acknowledged when it is out of the alarm condition. When either alarm is available to be acknowledged, theACK key will be illuminated. If both alarms are acknowledgeable, pressingACK will first acknowledge alarm #1. PressingACKa second time will acknowledge alarm #2.
################################## POWER UP:1 and POWER UP:2
For any enabled alarm, selects the alarm condition upon power up. Choices are:
################################## MESSAGE:1 and MESSAGE:2
Allows user to specify a nine-character message to be displayed when the respective alarm is active. If both alarms are active or any other diagnostic message is present, the messages will alternate.
################################## FAULT
Activates an alarm if the process variable signal is lost. Assign this function to either Alarm 1 or Alarm 2 (not both). This action is in addition the selected alarm type (additive alarm function).
################################## OUTPUT
For a RATE alarm, selects the output action. Use to obtain early indication of a possible break in the process variable signal. Select PV BREAK to have rate-of-change alarm take the same action as a detection of a break in the process variable signal (where it trips to manual control at a predetermined output).
################################## RATE TIME
For RATE alarms, defines the time period over which a discrete change in process variable must occur for the rate alarm to be activated. The amount of change is defined by the alarm setpoint. The rate-of-change is defined as the amount of change divided by the time period.
Example
In example A, the process variable would only have to experience a ten unit change over a short period of time, while in Example B, it would require a 100 unit change over a ten second period. Example A is much more sensitive than Example B. In general, for a given rateof-change, the shorter the time period, the more sensitive the rate alarm.

NOTE:The duplex output states vary depending upon:
Please refer to the output state examples in this section to confirm that the configuration is appropriate for the process.
NOTE: Set manual reset/load line parameters to 50% when using Duplex control (MAN. RST.:X parameter is in the TUNING menu.)
########### C. DUPLEX CONTROL
The Duplex control algorithm enables two discrete control outputs for the control loop. Duplex control is commonly used for applications that require both heating and cooling or when 2 control elements are needed to achieve the desired result.
########### Hardware Configuration
• The controller must have two output modules assigned to the loop (any combination of output modules).
########### Software Configuration
########### Duplex Output State Examples
The following Duplex examples represent a variety of ways this function can be set up. PID control examples show the PID output percentage on the horizontal axis, and On/Off control examples show the process variable on the horizontal axis. The vertical axes are the output of each physical output. Most of these examples use the first output as heating and the second output as cooling.
When using PID control, the 545 controller actually displays the PID output. To relate this output to the actual physical output, locate the PID output on the horizontal axis. Draw a vertical line at that point. At the intersection of this vertical
line and the respective output line, draw a horizontal line. The physical output is the value where this horizontal line intersects the respective axis. The illustrations assume a manual reset/load line term of 50%. Therefore, at zero error (process variable equals setpoint) the PID output is 50%. Duplex with reverse and direct acting outputs
A reverse acting output 1 and a direct acting output 2 with: no offset, no restrictive outputs limits, and a neutral relative gain with PID control.

############### Duplex with a overlapping outputs and output limits
A reverse acting output 1 and a direct acting output 2 with: a negative offset for output 1, a positive offset for output 2, and restrictive high and low output limits with PID control.
This combination of offsets results in an overlap where both outputs are active simultaneously when the PID output is around 50%.
The output limits are applied directly to the PID output. This in turn limits the actual output values. In this example, the high output maximum limits the maximum value for output 1, while the low output minimum limits the maximum value for output 2. The value the actual outputs are limited to depends on offset settings, control action and relative gain setting with PID control.

############################## Figure 7.8Duplex with One ON/OFF Output
Notice that the relative gain setting does not affect output 1. In this example, a relative gain setting of 2.0 (curve 1) results in output 2 reaching its maximum value at a PID output of 25%. A relative gain setting of 1.0 results in output 2 reaching its maximum value at a PID output of 0%. A relative gain setting of 0.5 results in output 2 reaching a maximum of 50% at a PID output of 0%.

########### D. SLIDEWIRE POSITION PROPORTIONING CONTROL
Slidewire position proportioning utilizes a slidewire feedback signal to determine the actual position of the actuator being controlled. This option is only available for one of the two control loops.
########### Hardware Configuration
########### Software Configuration
CAUTION! The relay in socket 1 drives the motor counterclockwise and the relay in output socket 2 drives the motor clockwise. This is important for:
The configuration choices influence the way the position proportioning algorithm works.
NOTE: OPEN F/B and CLOSE F/B values are always reference to the CCW end of the Slidewire.
NOTE: P.PROP.D.B. can only be configured if the Slidewire Feedback is wired to the controller.
NOTE: Adaptive tuning is not available with velocity position proportioning control.
########### E. VELOCITY POSITION PROPORTIONING CONTROL
Velocity position proportioning does not utilize direct feedback. It estimates the position of the actuator, based on time and the speed of the actuator.
In automatic control mode, the controller will display “CW” to refer to energizing of the clockwise relay, and “CCW” to refer to energizing of the counterclockwise relay. A blank display means that both relays are de-energized.
In manual control mode, the display is blank unless an output change is being made. Use the▲▲▲ and▼▼▼ keys to change the output; the relay is only energized while the keys are being pressed. The display indicates the percentage change in valve position in real time. The rate of change is dependent on the values entered for CCW TIME and CW TIME.
The controller will transfer to manual control due to a lost process variable (PV. BREAK), a digital input closure (DES.OUTPT.), a power-up sequence (PWR.UP:OUT.), or lost communications (SHED OUT). In these cases, the output can be set to: remain at its last value with both relays de-energized (OUTS OFF); rotate fully counterclockwise (CCW); or rotate fully clockwise (CW). CCW and CW will energize the respective relay for a period two times that of theCCW TIME or CW TIME.
########### Hardware Configuration
• The controller must have mechanical relay, solid state relay or DC logic
modules installed in the first two output sockets. Refer to the section on Chapter 1 for more information.
########### Software Configuration
########### F. STAGED OUTPUTS
With staged outputs, one analog output can vary its signal (e.g., 4-20 mA) over a portion of the PID output range. The second analog output then varies its signal over another portion of the PID output range. This is an excellent method to stage two control valves or two pumps using standard control signal ranges.

Hardware Configuration

Software Configuration
########### G. RETRANSMISSION
The retransmission feature may be used to transmit a milliamp signal corresponding to any of the following values: PV, SP1, Ramp SP1, Out L1, PV2, SP2, Ramp SP2, OUTL2. A common application is to use it to record one of these variables with a recorder.
########### Hardware Configuration
• There must be an analog module installed in output socket 2, 3 or 4.
Software Configuration Up to two outputs can be configured for retransmission. The menu will scroll through the configuration parameters for specified value “X” (2, 3 or 4).
NOTE: For an analog output module for retransmission that was not factoryinstalled, calibrate the output for maximum accuracy. Refer to Appendix 4 for details on calibration.
NOTE: To take advantage of multiple setpoints, make sure that the SP NUMBER parameter in the SPECIAL menu is set to a value greater than 1.

########### H. DIGITAL INPUTS
Digital inputs can be activated in three ways: A switch (signal type)—the recommended type, a relay, or and open collector transistor
Digital inputs are only functional when that option is installed (via hardware). The controller detects the hardware type, and supplies the appropriate software menus (see the section on parameters in Chapter 5). There are 14 contact types for the five digital inputs.

########### Basic Operating Procedures
For example, if one digital input closes and selects 2nd setpoint, and then another digital input closes and selects a remote setpoint, the remote setpoint takes precedence.
For example, if one digital input closes and selects the 2nd setpoint, and then a different setpoint is selected through the keyboard, the keyboard selection takes precedence.
NOTE: There is a one-second delay before a closed digital input takes action.

The Remote Setpoint can be assigned to Loop 1, Loop 2, or both. Remote setpoint limits are the same as setpoint limits.

Basic Operating Procedures
After configuring the hardware and software, select the remote input by:
########### J. MULTIPLE SETPOINTS
The 545 can store up to eight local setpoints and use a remote setpoint. One application of this feature is configuring the controller to restrict operators to discrete setpoint choices. The 545 can also store multiple sets of PID parameters (see next section).
########### Software Configuration
Set NO. OF PID to SP NUMBER. For details on multiple sets of PID, refer to the next section in this chapter.
########### Basic Operating Procedures
To select a set point, toggle theSET PTkey to scroll through the setpoints. The displayed setpoint becomes active after two second of key inactivity.
The digital inputs can also be used to select the active setpoints. A single digital input may be used for selecting the seconds setpoint, SP2. A set of two digital inputs per loop may be used, to select up to 4 setpoints per loop (see the section in this Chapter in Digital Inputs).
The SET PT key is lit when a setpoint other than the primary local setpoint is active.
########### K. MULTIPLE SETS OF PID VALUES
The 545 has the ability to store up to eight sets of PID values. This can be a valuable feature for operating the controller under conditions which require different tuning parameters for optimal control. There are various methods of selecting which set should be active. These methods are explained in this section.
########### Software Configuration
########### Basic Operating Procedures
A PID set can be selected in one of four ways.
= the low end of the process variable range, but this is not required.)
########### Using with Adaptive and Pretune
The 545 can be programmed to automatically set the PID values using the Pretune and Adaptive Tuning functions. For both functions, the tuned set of PID is that which is active upon initiation of the tuning function.
The controller cannot trip to other PID sets (based on trip point or the digital input
contact) until Adaptive Tuning is disabled. However, if the PID set is tied to the corresponding local setpoint, the active PID set values will change with the local setpoint.
Each PID set has 5 parameters that control its function—proportional band, reset, rate, manual reset (or loadline), and trip point. For each set (2 thru 8), these values have to be manually set.
########### L. POWERBACK
POWERBACK is Moore Industries’ proprietary algorithm which, when invoked by the user, reduces or eliminates setpoint overshoot at power up or after setpoint changes. Powerback monitors the process variable to make predictive adjustments to control parameters, which in turn helps to eliminate overshoot of the Setpoint.
########### Software Configuration
R 10 to 3200 seconds D 7200 seconds
########### M. SELF TUNE—POWERTUNE®
The Self Tune function of the 545 consists of two distinct components, Pretune and Adaptive Tune. These components may be used independently or in conjunction with one another. For best results, we recommend using them together.
########### Pretune
This algorithm has three versions. Choose the type that most closely matches the process to optimize the calculation of the PID parameters. The three Pretune types are:
Pretune is an on-demand function. Upon initiation, there is a five second period during which the controller monitors the activity of the process variable. Then the control output is manipulated and the response of the process variable is monitored. From this information, the initial Proportional Band, Reset and Rate (P, I and D values) and Dead Time are calculated. When using TYPE 2 or TYPE 3 Pretune, the Noise Band (NOISE BND.) and Response Time (RESP. TIME) and DEAD TIME will also be calculated.
In order to run this algorithm, the process must fulfill these requirements:
If these conditions are not fulfilled, set the Adaptive Tune to run by itself.
########### Adaptive Tune
Adaptive Tune continuously monitors the process and natural disturbances and makes adjustments in the tuning parameters to compensate for these changes. In order to make accurate calculations, Adaptive Tune needs noise band and response time values. Pretune TYPE 2 and TYPE 3 automatically calculate these values. These values may also be entered or changed manually in the SELF TUNEmenu. For Pretune TYPE 1, Noise Band, Response Time and Dead Time parameters must be entered manually.
Figure 7.12 illustrates the relationship between Pretune and Adaptive Tune
########### Software Configurations Pretune by Itself
CAUTION! Disable Adaptive Tuning before altering process conditions (e.g., for shutdown, tank draining, etc.). Otherwise, the 545 will attempt to adapt the Tuning parameters to the temporary process conditions. Adaptive Tune can be disabled via digital input (if applicable—see Digital Inputs in this chapter), or via menus:
############### Pretune TYPE 1 & Adaptive Tune
The controller will automatically transfer to automatic control upon completion of Pretune if set to do so, or upon manual transfer. Figure 7.12 illustrates the operation of Pretune TYPE 1 with Adaptive Tune.
############### Pretune TYPE 2 or 3 & Adaptive Tune
The controller will automatically transfer to automatic control upon completion of Pretune if set to do so, or upon manual transfer. Figure 7.12 illustrates the operation of Pretunes TYPE 2 and TYPE 3 with Adaptive Tune.

A noise band that is too small will result in tuning parameter values based on noise rather than the effects of load (and setpoint) changes. If the noise band is set too small, then Adaptive Tune will attempt to retune the controller too often. This may result in the controller tuning cycling between desirable system tuning and overly sluggish tuning. While the result may be better than that achieved with a non-adaptive controller, this frequent retuning is not desirable.
If the noise band is set too large, the process variable will remain within the noise band, and the controller will not retune itself. With too large a noise band, important disturbances will be ignored, and the controller will be indifferent to sluggish and oscillatory behavior.

Noise band settings are generally between 0.1% and 1.0%, with most common settings of 0.2% or 0.3%. Figure 7.14 shows the conversion of peakto-peak noise to an appropriate noise band for each T/C type & RTD.
Self Tuning with Multiple Sets of PID For both Pretune and Adaptive Tune, the tuned set of PID is that which is active upon initiation of the tuning function.
The controller cannot trip to other PID sets (based on trip point or the digital input contact) until Adaptive Tuning is disabled. However, if the PID set is tied to the corresponding local setpoint, the active PID set values will change with the local setpoint.
Each PID set has 5 parameters that control its function—proportional band, reset, rate, manual reset (or loadline), and trip point. For each set (2 thru 8), these values have to be manually set.

############### Self Tune with Time Proportioning Outputs
When using either the Pretune or the Adaptive Tune with a time proportioning output, use as short of a cycle time as possible within the constraint of maintaining a reasonable life on relays, contacts or heating elements.
############### Self Tune with Control Valves
In many systems utilizing a control valve, the point at which the control valve begins to stroke does not coincide with 0% output, and the point at which it completes its stroke doesn’t coincide with 100%. The parameters LOW OUT andHIGH OUTin theCONTROLmenu specify the limits on the output. Set these limits to correspond with the starting and stopping point of the valve’s stroke. This prevents a form of “windup” and thus provides the adaptive control algorithm with the most accurate information.
For example, in manual, the control output was slowly increased and it was noted that the control valve started to stroke at 18% and at 91% it completed its stroke. In this case LOW OUT should be set at 18% and HIGH OUT at 91%.
Note that when output limits are used, the full output range from -5 to 105% is available in manual control.
############### Self Tune with Cascade Control
########### N. RAMP-TO-SETPOINT
The 545 contains a ramp-to-setpoint function that may be used at the user’s discretion. This function is especially useful in processes where the rate-ofchange of the setpoint must be limited.
When the ramping function is activated, the controller internally establishes a series of setpoints between the original setpoint and the new target setpoint. These interim setpoints are referred to as the actual setpoint . Either setpoint may be viewed by the user. When the setpoint is ramping, RAMPING will be shown in the 3rd display when the actual (ramping) setpoint is displayed.
When the target setpoint is being shown, RAMPING will not appear. Pressing the DISPLAY key will scroll the 2nd display as follows:
########### Software Configuration
########### O. INPUT LINEARIZATION Thermocouple and RTD Linearization
For a thermocouple or RTD input, the incoming signal is automatically linearized. The 545 has lookup tables that it uses to provide an accurate reading of the temperature being sensed.
########### Square Root Linearization
Many flow transmitters generate a nonlinear signal corresponding to the flow being measured. To linearize this signal for use by the 545, the square root of the signal must be calculated. The 545 has the capability to perform this square root linearization.
For the first 1% of the input span, the input is treated in a linear fashion. Then it is a calculated value, using the formula in Figure 7.16.
########### PV = Low Range + [(Hi Range – Low Range) (V input- Vlow/ (Vhigh – V low)]
Hi Range is the high end of the process variable. Low Range is the low end of the process variable. V input is the actual voltage or current value of the input. V high is the high end of the input signal range (e.g. 5 volts or 20 mA). V low is the low end of the input signal range (e.g. 1 volt or 4 mA).
Example: PV range is 0 – 1000. Input signal range is 1–5 volts. Input signal is 3 volts.
Therefore PV = 0 + [ (1000 – 0) (3-1) / (5–1) ] = 1000 .5 =707
Figure 7.16 Square Root Linearization Formula
############### Hardware Configuration
• A voltage or milliamp input must be installed on the controller. Software Configuration
Figure 7.17 15-point Linearization Curve
########### Custom Linearization
Custom linearization allows virtually any nonlinear signal to be linearized using a 15-point straight line approximation curve (see Figure 7.17). Typical applications are linearizing signals from nonlinear transducers, or controlling volume based on level readings for irregularly-shaped vessels. To define the function, enter data point pairs—the engineering units corresponding to a particular voltage or current input.

############### Software Configuration
It is not necessary to use all 15 points. Whenever the XTH INPUT becomes the high end of the input range, that will be the last point in the table.
Once the various points are defined, the values between the points are interpolated using a straight line relationship between the points. The only limitation is that the resulting linearization curve must be either ever-increasing or ever-decreasing.
########### P. LOAD LINE
Load line is a manual reset superimposed on the automatic reset action. Adjusting the MAN. RST. tuning constant shifts the controller proportional band with respect to the setpoint.
When used with a proportional only or proportional/derivative control algorithm, the MAN. RST. parameter (located in the TUNING menu) is in effect “manual reset”.
However, when the automatic reset term is present, the reset action gradually shifts the proportional band to eliminate offset between the setpoint and the process. In this case, load line provides an initial shift at which the reset action begins. Load line is adjusted by observing the percent output required to control the process and then adjusting the load line to that value. This minimizes the effect of momentary power outages and transients. Load line may also be
adjusted to give the best response when bringing the load to the desired level from a “cold” start.

########### Q. SECURITY
The 545 security system is easily customized to fit a system’s needs.
########### Software Configuration
NOTE: SEC CODE does not appear unless all functions are unlocked.
NOTE: Lock outCONFIGURE for full security. If left unlocked, the operator will have access to the security code.
NOTE: The security function is compromised if the security code is left at zero (0).
NOTE: Security does not prevent the operation from the digital inputs or serial communications.
########### Basic Operating Procedures
The security feature can be overridden. When a locked function is attempted, the operator will have the opportunity to enter the security code.If the correct security code is entered, the operator has full access. The security feature is reactivated after one minute of keypad inactivity. If the security code is forgotten, the security feature can still be overridden.
• The security override code is 62647 .
Store this number in a secure place and blacken out the code in this manual to limit access.
########### R. RESET INHIBITION
Reset Inhibition is useful in some systems either at the start-up of a process or when a sustained offset of process variable from setpoint exists. In conditions like these, the continuous error signal may cause the process temperature to greatly overshoot setpoint. Any of the digital inputs may be set up so that the contact closure disables the reset action (sets it to zero).
Software Configuration
NOTE: PV GAIN is only available if using a linear voltage or current input.
########### S. PROCESS VARIABLE READING CORRECTION
Conditions extraneous to the controller—an aging thermocouple, out of calibration transmitter, lead wire resistance, etc.—can cause the display to indicate a value other than the actual process value. The PV OFFSET and PV GAINparameters can be used to compensate for these extraneous conditions. NOTE: This feature is provided as a convenience only. Correcting the cause of the erroneous reading is recommended.
With a combination of both offset and gain factors, just about any inaccuracy in the sensor or transmitter can be compensated.
########### T. SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
The serial communications option enables the 545 to communicate with a supervisory device, such as a personal computer or programmable logic controller.
The communications standard utilized is RS-485 which provides a multi-drop system that communicates at a high rate over long distances. Typical limitations are 32 instruments per pair of wires over a distance up to 4000 feet.
The 545 uses a proprietary protocol which provides an extremely fast and accurate response to any command. Cyclic redundancy checking (CRC) virtually ensures the integrity of any data read by the 545. Through communications, there is access to every Set up, Tuning and Operating parameter. For details on 545 protocol, contact a Moore Industries’ application engineer.
########### Hardware Configuration
• This optional features is only available if ordered originally from the factory. The circuitry for communications is contained on a modular circuit board that plugs into the Microcontroller Circuit Board, Refer to the order code in Chapter 1 for details.
########### Software Configuration
########### U. CASCADE CONTROL
In Cascade control, the output of one control loop (outside loop) becomes the remote setpoint of a second control loop (inside). The 545 performs this cascade control in a single instrument. The Cascade strategy enables better control of processes with significant lag times by breaking the process into two faster responding loops.
Cascade Control is typically used for the following:
When the 545 is configured for Cascade, Loop 1 is automatically the primary or outer feedback Loop and Loop 2 is the secondary or inner feedback loop. Loop 1 will not have a physical output, but rather the PID algorithm output is internally fed to Loop 2 as its Setpoint. Loop 2’s output comes out of Output 1. Should Loop 2 require two outputs, (e.g. duplex, staged) the second output would come out of Output 2.

of Loop 2 setpoint over which you want control. Example
Your Loop 2 range is 0 to 1000; you want its setpoint span to be 100 to 500. Remember that the setpoint span of Loop 2 is driven by the PID output of Loop 1 (the outside loop). Therefore you set SP LO LIM at 200 and SP HI LIM at 800. With these parameters, whenever Loop 1 output is 0%, the Loop 2 SP is 200.
################################## TUNING TIP
Similarly, whenever Loop 1 output is 100%, then Loop 2 SP is at 800. All the intermediate values follow a linear curve, as shown in Figure 7.21.
########### Tuning Cascade Control
########### V. RATIO CONTROL
Ratio Control is employed in blending applications that require materials to be mixed to a desired ratio. In some applications not only is the ratio being controlled but also the combined flow or total discharge rate of the mixed materials.
########### Ratio control with one wild stream
Figure 7.22 shows a simple example of a two stream blending application in which one of the streams is wild (uncontrolled). Ratio control for the type of application where one loop is “wild,” can be accomplished with a 545 configured for one loop.

################################## Example
In this example, the remote setpoint signal is the flow rate of Material B. The desired amount of B is twice that of A. Therefore, the ratio is 2.0. If the flow of Material B is measured at 50 gallons/minute, the effective remote setpoint value would be 2 times 50, or 100. The 535 would try to maintain the flow of Material A at 100. As the flow of Material B changes, the setpoint would change accordingly, always in a 2:1 ratio.
########### Ratio control with combined discharge monitoring
This process requires not only the same ratio of blending as in example 1, but also requires the control of the combined discharge rate. In this example, material A will always by in the proper ratio to material B even as the flow of B is controlled to a specific rate. By controlling the flow rate of B, the total discharge from the mixer (in Figure 7.23) can also be regulated.
Material B (PV1) has the only user defined setpoint in the system. The total flow setpoint of the system is calculated by the following formula:
Total Flow = PV1 + ((PV2 x Loop2 SP Ratio) + SP Bias)

############### Software Configuration
########### W. FEED FORWARD/FEEDBACK CONTROL
In feedback control, controller output is based on the difference between process variable and setpoint. By contrast, feed forward control generates an output signal based upon the process variable. Feed forward control functions compensate for system lag times by providing a predictive or anticipative output signal based on a process measurement. Typically a feed forward signal is used to enhance the performance of a feedback loop.
################################## Example
Below is an alkaline effluent stream with a constantly changing flow rate, into which an acid is being mixed (Refer to Figures 7.25 and 7.26). The acid valve is positioned as a result of the flow rate of the stream and the pH of the mix. This type of control is called Feed Forward/Feed Back. The pH sensor is a closed (feedback) loop that actually measures the result of the valve’s action. The flow rate is an open (feed forward) loop, adding, subtracting or multiplying its output to the pH loop.

########### X. LAG TIME
These functions are for slow processes with long or changing lag times.
Figure 7.27 shows a compound loop flow pacing (feed forward/feed back) water chlorination control system. The fixed lag time is the time under steady flow it takes the chlorine to travel from the injector to the residual sampling point. Under fluctuating flow rates, the travel time between the injector and the sampling point will vary. When variable lag time is invoked, changes in the flow past the flow meter automatically increase or decrease the lag time between the injector and sampling point.

########### Fixed Lag
Fixed Lag (FIXED. LAG) is a constant delay that prevents change in the control output before the results of the previous control value change can be measured. The fixed lag function may be used with the following control types: ONE LOOP, DUAL LOOP, FFWD. SUM and FFWD. MULT.
############### Software Configuration
########### Variable Lag
Variable lag (VARBL. LAG) can be used in feed forward/feed back control strategies where the feedforward contribution (PV2 input) can vary and thus increase or decrease the amount of actual process lag time. Variable Lag may be used with FFWD. SUM and FFWD. MULT control types.
############### Software Configuration
When in the normal operating mode, the lag time will decrease as the PV2 value increases, and will increases as the PV2 value decreases.

Accuracy specifications are at reference conditions (25°C—Still Air) and only apply for NIST ranges. PV1 Thermocouple Cold Junction accuracy is 0.02°/degree from reference conditions. PV2 Thermocouple Cold Junction Accuracy is 0.10°/degree from reference conditions. Display accuracy is ± 1 digit. Cold Junction accuracy is 0.02°/degree. Detailed accuracy information is available upon request.
CONTROL ALGORITHM PID, P with manual reset, PI, PD with manual reset, and On-Off are selectable from the front panel. Duplex outputs each use the same algorithm, except On-Off may be used with PID. The control output may be configured for cascade, ratio and feed forward applications. Fixed lag capability is available for PID loops with a constant delay. Variable lag capability is available when using the feed forward mode where the source of feed forward contribution may fluctuate. Feed forward contribution automatically modifies the length of the lag time.
TUNING PARAMETERS Proportional Band: 0.1 to 999% of input range Integral: 1 to 39999seconds/repeat Derivative: 0 to 600 seconds Manual Reset/Load Line: 0 to 100% output Cycle Time: 0.3 to 120 seconds On-Off Deadband: up to 15% of input range (in eng. units)
Up to eight sets of PID values may be stored in memory and selected automatically, based on setpoint value, process variable value, or the corresponding local setpoint (SP1–SP8).
SELF TUNING OF PID VALUES—AVAILABLE FOR EACH LOOP POWERTUNE® On–demand “pretune”: This is an open loop algorithm that may be used on its own to calculate PID variables, or it can be used to provide preliminary PID values, as well as process identification information to be used by the adaptive tune. Three pretune types are available: TYPE 1 for slow thermal processes; TYPE 2 for fast fluid or pressure applicaitons; and TYPE 3 for level control applications. Adaptive tune: Our exclusive POWERTUNE® adaptive tuning algorithm automatically adjusts the PID values whenever a process upset occurs. Preliminary information may be entered manually or automatically calculated by our pretune algorithm.
OVERSHOOT PROTECTION POWERBACK is proprietary, user-invoked, setpoint overshoot protection algorithm. When invoked, POWERBACK reduces or eliminates setpoint overshoot at power up or after setpoint changes. POWERBACK monitors the process variable to make predictive adjustments to the control parameters, a feature that helps eliminate overshoot of setpoint.
################################## ISOLATION
Inputs and outputs are grouped into the following blocks:
Each block is electrically isolated from the other blocks to withstand a HIPOT potential of 500 Vac for 1 minute or 600 Vac for 1 second, with the exception of blocks 1 and 4, which are not isolated, but is capable to withstand a potential of 50 volts peak for 1 minute between each other. Inputs and outputs are not isolated from other inputs and outputs within the same block. Blocks 1A & 1B are ground loop isolated from each other to 10V peak to peak.
CONTROLLER ARCHITECTURE The 545 Controller hardware can be configured as follows: Inputs: Two universal process variable inputs are standard. Available options include 1 remote setpoint, 1 slidewire feedback and 5 digital inputs. Outputs: 4 outputs are available. See Ordering Information. RS-485 Communications: Available as an option with any configuration.
PROCESS VARIABLE INPUTS—2 AVAILABLE Universal input type. Any input type may be selected in the field. Selection of input type (thermocouple, RTD, voltage or current) via jumper. Selection of particular sensor or range is via front panel.

TRANSMITTER LOOP POWER Isolated 24 Vdc (nominally loaded) loop power supply is available if a loop power module is installed in an output socket. Capacity is 25 mA.
################################## INPUT SIGNAL FAILURE PROTECTION
When input is lost, output is commanded to a predetermined output (-5 to 105%). Thermocouple burnout is selectable for upscale or downscale.
INPUT FILTER Single pole lowpass digital filter with selectable time constant from 0 to 120 seconds.
CALIBRATION The controller comes fully calibrated from the factory and continuously calibrates itself for component aging due to temperature and time, except for the reference voltage. Field calibration can be easily performed with a precision multimeter and thermocouple simulator. Process variable offset and gain factors are provided to correct for sensor errors.
OUTPUT MODULES The controller can have a total of four control outputs, alarm outputs and/or loop power modules installed. There are five types of output modules which can be configured to suit your particular application. The modules may be ordered factory-installed, or they may be installed in the field. Analog module: Either 0–20mA or 4–20mA (front panel selectable) into a load up to 1000 ohms. Accuracy ± 5µA @ 25°C. Mechanical relay module: SPDT electromechanical relay. Resistive load rated at 5 amps at 120/240 VAC. Normally open or normally closed selection is made by jumper. Output 4 is rated at 0.5 amps at 24 VAC and is always normally open. Solid state relay (triac) module: Resistive load rated at 1 amp at 120/240 VAC. Output 4 is rated at 0.5 amps at 24 VAC. These outputs are normally open. DC logic (SSR drive) module: “ON” voltage is 17 Vdc (nominal). “OFF” voltage is less than 0.5 Vdc. (Current limited to 40mA.) Loop power supply module: Current is limited to 25mA @ 24V (nominally loading).
CONTROL OUTPUTS Up to two output modules per loop may be designated for control. Any combination of output modules, with the exception of the loop power supply module, may be used. Duplex control is available if output modules are installed in the first and second output sockets for either loop. Position proportioning control with feedback is available if mechanical or solid state relay modules are installed in the first two output sockets, and the slidewire feedback option is installed. The feedback option may be added in the field. Slidewire feedback range is 0 to 1050 ohms (Slidewire SP available for either loop 1 or loop 2—one loop only). “Velocity” position proportioning control is available by installing mechanical or solid state relay modules in the first two output sockets. A special algorithm controls an electric actuator without the slidewire feedback signal. Staged (split range) outputs are available if analog modules are installed in the first and second output sockets. This algorithm will allow the output range to be split between the two outputs.
RETRANSMISSION OUTPUT Based on available outputs (any socket not used for control), up to two different variables can be simultaneously programmed for retransmission. Each precise, 16-bit resolution output may be scaled for any range. Variable selection includes: PV1, SP1, RAMP SP1, LOOP1OUT, PV2, SP2, RAMP SP2 and LOOP2OUT.
ALARMS The 545 controller has two software alarms per loop for a total of four alarms. High and low alarms may be sourced to the PV, SP, RAMP SP, DEVIATION and OUTPUT. If an alarm is tripped, the alarm message will show, the ACK key will illuminate (if acknowledgeable) and the ALM icon will light. If the alarm is tied to the first available non-control output, the “1” below the ALM icon will light. Similarly, if the alarm is tied to the second noncontrol output, the “2” below the ALM will light. The availability of outputs determines how many alarms can be tied to relays. Global Alarm feature allows one or more of the internal software alarms to be tied to the same single, physical output. The acknowledge key is active for alarms associated with either loop. The order in which alarms are acknowledged is: loop1 alarm1, loop1 alarm 2, loop2 alarm 1, loop2 alarm2.
DIGITAL INPUTS A set of five external digital inputs activated by dry contacts (or open collector transistors) are available. Each can be configured to perform one of the following functions:
In addition, if the set of five digital inputs is installed, two can be designated to select one of four local setpoints per loop (and associated PID set, if desired) via a binary coded decimal (BCD) input.
SETPOINT SELECTION A remote setpoint input is available for one of the two loops. Signal is 0–20/4–20 mADC or 0–5/1–5 VDC (jumper selectable). Signal may be rationed and biased. Eight local setpoints per loop may be stored in memory. Setpoint selection is made via SET PT key or digital contact(s).
FAULT OUTPUT One of the alarm outputs may be designated to also energize if the input signal is lost.
SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS Isolated serial communications is available using an RS-485 interface. Baud rates of up to 19,200 are selectable. The protocol supports CRC data checking. If communications is lost, a timeout feature will command the controller to a particular control mode and specific setpoint or output if desired. Outputs 2–4 and digital inputs can act as “host-controlled” I/O independent of the controller’s function. May be installed in the field.
DIGITAL DISPLAYS Upper display: five-digit, seven-segment. Used exclusively for displaying the process variable value. Height is 15 mm (0.6 in.). 2nd display: nine-character, 14-segment alphanumeric. Used for displaying setpoint, deviation, output value, slidewire position (actual valve position) and configuration information. Height is 6 mm (0.25 in.). 3rd display: nine-character, 14-segment alphanumeric. Used for indicating which loop is displayed and for displaying alarm messages and configuration information. Height is 6 mm (0.25 in.). All displays are vacuum fluorescent. Color is bluegreen.
STATUS INDICATORS There are two types of indicators: icons and illuminated keys. ALM 1 and ALM 2 icons: alarm 1 and alarm 2 status. OUT 1 and OUT 2 icons: control output 1 and control output 2 status. PV2 icon illuminated: 2nd loop is on display. DISPLAY key illuminated: 2nd loop is on display. MAN key illuminated: controller is in manual control mode. ACK key illuminated: alarm may be acknowledged. SET PT key illuminated: setpoint other than primary local setpoint is active. MENU key illuminated: controller is in configuration mode.

Failure to use these devices may result in a loosening of the module and eventual failure. If you ordered a module separately, it should have come with a tie wrap. An extra set of tie wraps is available by ordering Part #535-665. Note: For greatest accuracy, milliamp modules added for retransmission must be calibrated per instructions in Operator's Manual.
To Change the Option Board
Note: When adding Option board for 5 digital inputs, associated screw terminal in the rear terminal block must be installed. (See information on page 1 for ordering a Screw Kit.)
#################### To Change the Power Supply or Microcontroller (CPU) Board
For the Power Supply Board, disconnect the 5-pin female connector that wires it to the Display Assembly. Reattach the connector to the new board. You can only orient the connector one way.
