Questions and Answers
PID
There is an auto tuning function.
Top of this page
The UT300 series has four, and the UT400/500/700 series has eight.
Top of this page
The methods available are zone, contact, and parameter switching.
Top of this page
No control is performed. In the worst case, a plant can break down.
Top of this page
They are not displayed if the operation mode is STOP or MAN mode.
Top of this page
This is not available with ON/OFF control of OT=3.
Top of this page
Set the following: P=100,I=D=OFF,DR=DIR (direct action), MR=0,SP=0
Top of this page
Retransmission output
Set RET=1.
Top of this page
Set RET=2.
Top of this page
Set RET=3.
Top of this page
They are not isolated.
Top of this page
This is supported by setting RET=3(OUT). (However, only for position proportional control.)
Top of this page
This is a function that supplies power to 2-wire system transmission equipment. It depends on the specifications of the transmitter, but the input receptacle (sold separately) accepts a 100 OHM resistor (Yokogawa model number X010-100-2).
Top of this page
When RET=1 or 2, output is not effected by STOP.
Top of this page
600 OHM or less.
Top of this page
Custom computation
With the four arithmetical operations, you can apply any correction to the input. With logical operations, you can group sequence processes between input and output contacts. They also support analog sequencing.
Top of this page
Software called the LL1200 is required.
Top of this page
The UT750, UP750, and US1000-1.
Top of this page
We do not offer this service. It is assumed that the customer will be creating the computations.
Top of this page
They are sent in the order: Custom computation data => Parameter settings.
Top of this page
Sample data are available for each control mode. We recommend that you edit these data to create new ones.

LL100/LL200
Floppy discs.
Top of this page
Use our proprietary cable, KM13-1N (sold separately).
Top of this page
The adapter is not sold by itself. The cable is part number KM11-2T.
Top of this page
50 hours of continuous use.
Top of this page
The models supported are the UT300/351/400/500/700 series, and the UP350/550/750.
Top of this page
This can be done.
Top of this page
You can do this using the multi-monitor function. However, all data are not saved. It only logs the data saved in the CSV file format. Unsaved portions are discarded!
Top of this page
Select Delete segment from the Edit item in the top of the screen.

Software (on floppy disc), an adapter, cable, and user's manual.
Top of this page
The communication parameters and LOCK parameters cannot be set with the LL depending on the specifications on the UT side.
Top of this page
This is software for the UT and UP. LL100 is a parameter setting tool. LL200 has the same functions as LL100, but adds the custom computation creation function.
Top of this page
This is software for the US1000. LL1100 is a parameter setting tool. LL1200 has the same functions as LL100, but adds the custom computation creation function.
Top of this page
No. You purchase a set, and the dedicated cable is included.
Top of this page
Please purchase our Yokogawa cable KM13-1N separately.
Top of this page
It is three meters long (about three yards).
Top of this page
There are 5 and 10-meter cables available separately (part numbers KM11-3T*A and KM11-4T*A respectively).
Top of this page
They support Windows 98/2000 (Professional)/XP (Home Edition or Professional, or Windows NT 4.0 (SP3 or later).
Top of this page
Events
Instrument alarms output alarms regardless of the operation mode. PV and TIME events are only used during program operation. Local events only operate during local operation mode.
Top of this page
Eight PV events and sixteen TIME events can be set. The number of output points depends on the number of contact points of the model.
Top of this page
Turn PVT of the setup parameters ON.
Top of this page
PV events and TIME events continue even if they straddle segments. If you do not want to output events, turn OFF the events at the relevant segment.
Top of this page
Remote input
This is supported by the UT400/500/700 series with the auxiliary input option.
Top of this page
The auxiliary analog input function has a ratio bias function, so this is supported.
Top of this page
This is because SP tracking under the setup parameters is turned ON. Turn OFF this parameter (SPT).
Top of this page
For inputting current, resistance is used and voltage is input.
Top of this page
The UT300 series uses 1 PID only. With models UT400, 500, and 700, it is the PID just before switching to remote input. When using SP switching when in remote input mode, it results in PID switching.
Top of this page
Reset (RST)
It is a one-shot contact.
Top of this page
It is the preset output.
Top of this page
Heating/cooling
Set the P item on the heating side and the Pc item on the cooling side to 0.0.
Top of this page
If a positive setting is entered for the dead band, you can have a region in which neither is presented. If a negative setting is entered for the dead band, you can have a region in which both are presented simultaneously.
Top of this page
Is output possible manually? If not, check whether OL (cooling side output upper limiter) is 100%.
Top of this page
This can be done. 1 output control is selected for the OT=0-3 setting of the setup parameter.
Top of this page
They are available for the heating/cooling types.
Top of this page
MELSEC
The MELSEC-A, MELSEC-Q, and MELSEC-FX.
Top of this page
Alarm settings
Enter settings in the order Alarm type => alarm setting value. This also won't display if you select an alarm without an alarm setting value.
Top of this page
They are entered with real values. In the case of temperature, degrees Celsius are used.
Top of this page
You can change assignments with the contact output registration parameters (only with the UT500 and UT700)
Top of this page
This function outputs an alarm when the delay timer expires after the alarm setpoint has been exceeded. If the PV exceeds the setpoint again during timer operation, the timer time is reset.
Top of this page
No. When going from the alarm setpoint to the normal range, it is automatically reset.
Top of this page
Energize alarms are ON contact during alarms, and de-energize alarms are OFF contact during alarms. However, they are OFF contact during a power failure.
Top of this page
This is possible when using the UT550 or UT551.
Top of this page
You can do this using the deviation high and low limit alarms.
Top of this page
Installation
Does your system meet the minimum requirements? Did you use double-byte characters for the login user name?
Top of this page
Setup
If you set inputs even just once, it is no longer displayed when the power is turned ON.
Top of this page
When you change the input, the parameters are initialized. You should especially avoid changing during operation.
Top of this page
If you change setup parameters, parameters may be initialized. You should not change them during operation.
Top of this page
These cannot be set when in custom computation mode.
Top of this page
In general, heating control is called reverse action and cooling control is called direct action. With reverse action, when PV is smaller than SP output is ON, and with direct action, when PV is larger than SP output is ON.
Top of this page
These settings are ignored even if entered.
