3-9 Alarm Outputs
• Alarms can be used by the E5CN-@2@@@ (2 auxiliary outputs), E5AN/
EN-@3@@@ (3 auxiliary outputs), the E5CN-@1@@@U (1 auxiliary out-
put), or the E5CN-@2@@@U (2 auxiliary outputs).
Alarms can also be used by setting the Control Output 1 Assignment or
Control Output 2 Assignment parameter to alarm 1 to 3.
Alarm outputs are determined by a combination of Alarm Type, Alarm
Value, and Alarm Hysteresis alarm output conditions. For details, refer to
4-2 Alarm Hysteresis.
• This section describes the Alarm Type, Alarm Value, Upper-limit Alarm
and Lower-limit Alarm parameters.
3-9-1 Alarm Types
Increased The curve rises gradually, and a long
stabilization time is created, but over-
shooting is prevented.
Decreased Overshooting and hunting occur, but
the set value is quickly reached and the
temperature stabilizes.
Increased It takes a long time to reach the set
point.
It takes time to achieve a stable state,
but overshooting, undershooting, and
hunting are reduced.
Decreased Overshooting and undershooting occur.
Hunting occurs.
The Controller starts up faster.
Increased Overshooting, undershooting, and sta-
bilization times are reduced, but fine
hunting occurs on changes in the curve
itself.
Decreased Overshooting and undershooting
increase, and it takes time to return to
the set point.
